In a significant operation, the Jammu and Kashmir Police recently recovered 290 bottles of Codeine Phosphate, a highly addictive cough syrup, during searches in Srinagar.
The raid was part of ongoing efforts to tackle the rising abuse of narcotic substances in the region. Codeine Phosphate is often misused as a recreational drug, and its illegal distribution has been a major concern for local authorities.
The police have taken swift action, recovering the bottles and identifying the individuals involved in its distribution. This recovery is being seen as a major success in the fight against drug abuse, with law enforcement agencies continuing to target drug suppliers and distributors.
Authorities have urged the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to help combat drug trafficking in the state.
