Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has reiterated his government's commitment to tackling the twin challenges of drug abuse and gangster culture in the state. He clarified that his administration is conducting a comprehensive and rigorous campaign to address these significant threats. According to the Chief Minister, the government is not showing any leniency toward elements that undermine the peace and security of the state.

The Chief Minister emphasized that his government has achieved significant success in curbing the smuggling of narcotics from across the border. He claimed that the supply of drugs originating from Pakistan has now been largely brought under control. This measure is being considered a major achievement in the effort to stop the spread of drugs within the state.

Bhagwant Mann stated that both drug abuse and gangsterism have become serious threats to the social fabric of Punjab. To eradicate these evils from the roots, the government has given full autonomy to the police and other security agencies. He expressed confidence that these efforts would provide a safer and better future for the youth of the state.

According to information provided by the government, continuous raids and legal actions are being taken against those involved in organized crime. The Chief Minister asserted that establishing the rule of law in the state is his top priority. He warned criminals that peace and order would be ensured strictly within the framework of the law.

The Chief Minister also mentioned that the ongoing campaign against drugs is not merely an administrative process but a resolve to protect the future of the state. He has appealed to the general public to cooperate in this endeavor. Mann believes that only through the combined efforts of society and the government can Punjab be freed from these evils.

Following these claims by the state government, it remains to be seen how much impact these campaigns will have at the grassroots level. The Chief Minister has made it clear that his government will maintain its strict stance on these issues in the coming times. The primary objective of the Punjab administration is to develop the state into a safe and drug-free region.
