The Pune Police have started to destroy 788 kilograms of illegal drugs, worth ₹7.76 crore, following orders from the court. This important step is part of their efforts to fight against drug trafficking and keep the community safe. The destruction will happen at a special facility in Ranjangaon MIDC.
Most of the drugs being destroyed are marijuana, which makes up 758 kilograms of the total. Other drugs like mephedrone, brown sugar, opium, and LSD are also included. The police will ensure that the destruction is done safely and according to the rules.
The police discovered that the marijuana came from states like Madhya Pradesh, Telangana, and Andhra Pradesh. This shows that drug trafficking involves many states. By knowing where the drugs come from, the police can plan better ways to stop them and work with other states.
There is a growing concern about young people using marijuana in Pune. Because of this, the police are increasing their efforts to watch over the community and stop drug use. They've already seized a lot of drugs through their hard work.
This operation is part of a bigger plan to make it harder for people to get illegal drugs. By destroying these drugs, the police aren't only taking them off the streets but also showing that they're serious about fighting drug crimes.
