Ladakh Police has launched extensive anti-drug campaigns and operations to address the growing concern of substance abuse in the region. With an increasing number of tourists and workers coming into Ladakh, the demand for illicit substances has risen, prompting the police to take a stronger stance. The police force has been conducting regular raids and surveillance in areas where drug activity is most prevalent. Additionally, they are working closely with health departments and NGOs to run educational campaigns aimed at preventing drug abuse among locals, tourists, and especially young people.
The anti-drug operations have led to the identification and dismantling of several trafficking networks that have been involved in smuggling illegal substances into Ladakh. These operations have also targeted suppliers, distributors, and consumers, ensuring that every level of the drug trade is disrupted. Public outreach programs are helping to create awareness about the dangers of drug abuse and provide information about rehabilitation services available in the region. Ladakh Police aims to reduce the prevalence of drug-related crimes and promote healthier, drug-free communities.
