Haryana DGP Orders War on Drugs & Gangs

Haryana Director General of Police Ajay Singhal has initiated a high-level directive for a robust crackdown on organized crime. This includes targeting drug syndicates, extortion rackets, and gangster networks throughout the state. Emphasis is placed on dismantling the financial infrastructure of drug trafficking by identifying and seizing assets derived from illegal proceeds.

Strategies under the NDPS Act will be employed, focusing on commercial quantity drug busts and profiling organized gangs. A performance audit of the Anti-Narcotics Task Force is scheduled, coupled with public awareness campaigns and strengthened intelligence gathering to disrupt drug distribution. The DGP also stressed zero tolerance for operational failures.

Addressing organized crime, police will map criminal inter-linkages and monitor communication channels. Surveillance on imprisoned criminals will be heightened through multi-agency coordination to prevent jail-based networks. The state's CCTV camera network will be expanded, with collaborations to install more cameras in public areas.

Further directives include maintaining vigilance on women and child safety, ensuring prompt action on missing children cases, and managing crowd control during demonstrations. The overall aim is to exert strict legal force against criminal elements and enhance public safety.
