Ludhiana, Punjab (October 06, 2013): At a meeting organized by The International Human Rights Organization (IHRO), the leadership expressed its concerns over growing drug addiction across the State.

The representatives alleged that the Government was not paying any attention to curb this menace.

IHRO leaders expressed that the Punjab Government was showing less concern as neither the SAD (Badal) or the Bhartiya Janta Party had done anything in its regards.

DG Gill, the chairperson, held that the Government was merely trying to stop the addiction through police force however this was not working. He said that so far the results are zero. He called upon the Government to “catch the big fish” instead of going after addicted individuals.

Speaking about the recent arrest of Police Cat Sukhwinder, alias Sukhi, DS Gill alleged that it was a shame that even police high officials were involved in this business.

He said that the Government should run special campaigns, especially during elections so drugs are not used to lure voters, which has been a problem even during SGPC elections.
