Reaffirming Prime Minister Narendra Modi government’s resolve to deal harshly against drug trafficking, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday said that the government will show "no mercy for drug cartels".

 

Shah said there is no scope of any complacency nor would any government in affected states show mercy towards this menace, while maintaining that the Narendra Modi-led Central Government's "bottom to top and top to bottom" approach to combat drug trafficking is working efficiently.

 

"No mercy for drug cartels. Accelerating the Modi govt's march to build a drug-free Bharat, a massive consignment of methamphetamine tablets worth Rs 88 crore has been seized, and 4 members of the international drug cartel are arrested in Imphal and Guwahati zones," Shah said in a post on social media platform X.

 

"The drug haul is a testament to the stellar performance of the bottom-to-top and top-to-bottom approach to investigation," he noted.

 

The Union Home Minister reiterated that the government's efforts to combat drug trafficking will continue. "Our hunt for drugs continues," he added, emphasising the commitment to tackling illegal drug trade and maintaining national security.

 

Earlier on March 3, the Assam Rifles, in a joint operation with the Mizoram Police, seized methamphetamine tablets worth Rs 60.63 crore in the Champhai district of Mizoram. The operation was conducted on February 28 in the general area of Crossing Point One, Zokhawthar.
