Drugs worth Rs1.10 crore seized in Nagpur in May, over 200 arrested: CM
Nagpur: Nagpur police seized narcotics valued at over Rs1.10 crore in May and arrested 211 individuals under various provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, chief minister Devendra Fadnavis told the Maharashtra Legislative Council on Wednesday, emphasising the police's zero-tolerance policy towards the heinous drug trade. According to data presented in the House, police registered 170 cases in May alone. The seized drugs included cannabis (ganja), MD powder and opium, which remained the most trafficked substances in Nagpur city. Fadnavis stated that police investigations revealed these drugs were primarily sourced from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh and were smuggled into Nagpur via secret routes. Of the total seizures, MD accounted for the largest share with value of the drugs estimated at Rs98.07 lakh. Seized ganja was valued at Rs7.14 lakh while opium was pegged at Rs4.94 lakh. Fadnavis said police also acted against individual drug users, with 134 cases registered against narcotics consumers, classified as 'Sevanaarthi', leading to the arrest of 145 accused on consumption-related charges. The chief minister added that police had mapped key drug hotspots within Nagpur and were focusing enforcement activities in these areas. Intelligence-based raids were carried out regularly, with special efforts to disrupt supply chains before narcotics reached city markets. Fadnavis assured the House that anti-narcotics operations in Nagpur would continue to be intensified to tackle both trafficking and consumption.
