To combat the rising tide of drug-related issues, Goa Police have launched a statewide anti-narcotics awareness campaign. The initiative aims to educate the public on the dangers of drug use and trafficking, focusing particularly on high-risk areas such as party venues and tourist spots. The campaign also highlights the legal consequences of drug offenses, including imprisonment and heavy fines.
As part of the campaign, the police are distributing educational materials, conducting workshops, and engaging with local communities to promote a drug-free environment. The campaign seeks to curb Goa’s reputation as a hotspot for illicit drug trade, with the long-term goal of reducing addiction and drug-related crimes.
