Sharjeel orders major operation against drug dealers

The Sindh government has decided to launch a major operation against drug dealers across the province. The Excise and Narcotics Control Wing will officially begin this operation on Wednesday against drug dealers across Sindh.

In the first phase, the operation will target two major cities, Karachi and Hyderabad. Subsequent phases will extend the operation to other districts of Sindh. In connection with this operation, the Excise and Narcotics Control Wing has been mobilized from across Sindh.

Officials said the decision was taken at an important meeting of the Excise and Narcotics Control Wing in Karachi. The meeting was held under the chairmanship of Senior Minister Sharjeel Memon. The meeting was attended by Secretary Excise Muhammad Saleem Rajput, DG Narcotics Control Wing Aurangzeb Akbar Panhwar, and other officials.

In the meeting, Memon issued orders for an operation against drug dealers starting from Wednesday. He directed that a phased operation should begin across Sindh, with the first phase focusing on eliminating drug peddlers in Karachi and Hyderabad.

He stated that by expanding the scope of the anti-drug operation, it will soon be launched in other districts as well. Our targets are crystal meth, ice, heroin, cocaine, and hashish, which must be eradicated at all costs. The police and Rangers are also prepared to cooperate with the Excise and Narcotics Control teams at all times.

The senior minister stated that with the introduction of the new anti-narcotics law, the responsibilities of the Excise and Narcotics Control have increased, and we all have a role to play in protecting our future generations from the scourge of drugs and in ensuring a drug-free society.

He said efforts to stop drug use lead to a sense of satisfaction and happiness, and it is now our responsibility to strengthen and make the anti-narcotics wing exemplary. He said prizes and honours will be awarded to those who perform well in the fight against drugs. He said he is personally monitoring the anti-narcotics operations and receiving daily reports on the progress of these operations.
