Haryana intensifies its battle against drugs through enhanced regulations, center inspections, and programs like 'SANKALP' for awareness.

Haryana's Drug Menace Strategy

Haryana's comprehensive strategy against drugs includes center inspections, new regulations, and programs to create a drug-free environment.

Haryana intensifies its battle against drugs through enhanced regulations

Haryana intensifies anti-drug operations with enhanced center inspections, strict chemist regulations, and innovative programs.

Haryana Chief Secretary Anurag Rastogi on Friday chaired a meeting of the state-level Narco Coordination Centre (NCORD) committee to evaluate the state's efforts in combating drug-related crimes and to formulate robust strategies to strengthen anti-drug initiatives.
The meeting, attended by Deputy Commissioners and Senior Superintendents of Police via videoconferencing, underscored the need for a comprehensive approach to tackle the challenges of drug abuse and trafficking, a statement said.
During the meeting, Rastogi issued directives to Deputy Commissioners to conduct thorough inspections of drug de-addiction centres across the state and submit detailed compliance reports by April 22.
This mandate aims to ensure accountability, enhance the operational standards of these centres, and improve rehabilitation outcomes for individuals battling addiction. Additional Chief Secretary (Home), Sumita Misra, instructed that these inspections should not only identify deficiencies but also acknowledge improvements and propose actionable recommendations to elevate the quality of services provided by the centres. Chief Secretary Rastogi also directed the Department of Food and Drug Administration to enforce stricter regulations for chemist shops across the state.
He mandated that all chemist shops install CCTV cameras to monitor operations and prominently display their licences in a visible location for consumers.
Additionally, he instructed the department to conduct awareness programmes to sensitise chemists about the legal consequences of violating drug regulations, including the penalties for non-compliance.
These measures aim to enhance transparency, curb the illegal sale of controlled substances, and ensure consumer safety.
Rastogi also proposed an enhancement to the 'Prahari Clubs', which are designed to create awareness of drug abuse among students. He suggested that these clubs should now include the parents of addicted youth, alongside teachers, to establish a more supportive environment for counselling.
Sumita Misra emphasised that safeguarding the youth and future generations from the dangers of drug addiction is vital for Haryana's progress.
She said Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has launched a new authority named 'SANKALP' (Substance Abuse and Narcotics Knowledge, Awareness and Liberation Programme Authority).
This initiative is designed to protect young people from the perils of substance abuse through comprehensive awareness campaigns, preventive education, and rehabilitation support, ensuring a brighter and drug-free future for the state.
Additional Chief Secretary, G Anupama, said the Haryana drug abuse monitoring system, a digital platform to enable end-to-end de-addiction services in the licensed centres, has been developed by the Social Justice, Empowerment, Welfare of Scheduled Castes and Backward Classes and Antyodaya (SEWA) Department.
The portal has been developed after elaborate consultations with government and private stakeholders. A pilot project has been successfully tested in Ambala and Panchkula. It will now be implemented across the state.
Apart from this, a star-rating system has been introduced for de-addiction centres in the state to ensure quality treatment for patients, she said.
Director General, Haryana State Narcotics Control Bureau (HSNCB), O P Singh, reported that from January to March 2025, 834 FIRs were registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, resulting in the arrest of 1,319 individuals.
Among these, 119 cases involved commercial quantities of narcotics, while 578 involved intermediate quantities.
In addition, 103 awareness programmes were conducted by the HSNCB, reaching over 18,500 participants. Furthermore, 2,515 villages were covered under the 'Sports for Youth' initiative, aiming to engage and educate young people in the fight against drug abuse, Singh said.
Haryana's Director General of Police, Shatrujeet Kapur and senior officers of various departments were also present on the occasion.

PM Modi inaugurates Hisar-Ayodhya flight, enhancing Haryana's aviation

PM Modi launches a flight from Hisar to Ayodhya, boosts connectivity with new terminal plans in Haryana, worth Rs 410 crore.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi Monday flagged off a commercial flight from here to Ayodhya and laid the foundation stone of the new terminal building at the airport.
In line with his commitment to make air travel safe, affordable and accessible to all, PM Modi laid the foundation stone of Maharaja Agrasen Airport's new terminal building to be built at an estimated cost of over Rs 410 crore.
It will include a state-of-the-art passenger terminal, a cargo terminal and an ATC building. The project is targeted to be completed in two years.
About Modi flagging off the inaugural flight from here to Ayodhya, a statement had earlier said that scheduled flights from Hisar to Ayodhya twice a week, and three flights in a week to Jammu, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, and Chandigarh will mark a significant leap in Haryana's aviation connectivity.
Modi is in Haryana to launch several development initiatives worth Rs 10,000 crore in the state on Monday to mark the birth anniversary of Bhim Rao Ambedkar, an iconic figure known for his role in Dalit emancipation and framing the Constitution.
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini and several state ministers were among those present at the event.

BJP claims victory in Haryana's municipal elections, dominating key cities like Gurugram and Rohtak, signaling a setback for Congress.

BJP Dominates Haryana Elections

In a decisive victory, BJP leads Haryana's municipal polls, overpowering Congress in major cities, marking a significant political shift.

BJP secures dominance in Haryana, Congress faces setbacks

BJP secures mayoral seats across Haryana municipal elections, decisively defeating Congress, which only fielded candidates in key areas, leading to significant setbacks.

In a significant political update, the Congress party appears to be heading for a second consecutive electoral setback in Haryana, as early counts from Wednesday morning's municipal elections demonstrate a strong showing for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
The BJP is leading or has already secured victory in nine out of ten mayoral seats across key civic bodies, including significant wins in Gurugram and Rohtak&mdash;areas traditionally considered strongholds for senior Congress figure Bhupinder Hooda.
In Manesar, the only exception to BJP's sweep, independent candidate Dr. Inderjit Yadav, a former BJP leader running as a rebel, is currently in the lead.
While the Congress has mainly refrained from contesting local polls under its own banner, in this election cycle, the party fielded candidates for several posts, notably for the mayoral race in Gurugram.
This marked the first direct face-off against the BJP for the seat.
In response to the Congress challenge, the BJP deployed high-profile figures from neighboring states, including Rajasthan Chief Minister Nayab Saini and his Delhi counterpart Rekha Gupta, both undertaking comprehensive campaigning with door-to-door outreach and vibrant roadshows.
The Congress countered with heavyweights like former Rajasthan Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot and Bhupinder Hooda.
Despite these efforts, the outcome was decisively one-sided. In Gurugram, incumbent BJP candidate Raj Rani maintained a substantial lead over her Congress rival Seema Pahuja, boasting a margin of over 95,000 votes after six rounds of counting.
Congress stumbles in Rohtak
Rohtak's mayoral race, theoretically a five-cornered battle involving the BJP, Congress, Aam Aadmi Party, Indian National Lok Dal, and an independent candidate, witnessed BJP's Ram Avtar securing a commanding victory.
He accrued over 100,000 votes, leaving the Congress's Surajmal Kiloi trailing with a deficit of more than 45,000 ballots. This result is particularly damaging for Congress, given the region's status as former Chief Minister Hooda's stronghold.
BJP claims Ambala, maintains lead in Faridabad
In Ambala, BJP's Shailja Sachdeva triumphed over Congress's Amisha Chawla by 20,487 votes. Meanwhile, in Faridabad, BJP's Parveen Joshi maintained his lead over Congress contender Lata Rani.
BJP leads across Hisar, Karnal, Panipat
In other key areas, the BJP continued its domination, with Praveen Popli leading in Hisar against Congress's Krishan Singla. In Karnal, Renu Bala Gupta is ahead of Congress&rsquo;s Manoj Wadhwa, while in Panipat, Komal Saini leads Congress's Savita Garg.
Additionally, senior BJP leader Rajiv Jain is outperforming Congress's Komal Dewan in Sonipat, and in Yamunanagar, BJP's Suman is ahead of Congress candidate Kirna Devi.
Voting took place on March 2 in Faridabad, Hisar, Rohtak, Karnal, Yamunanagar, as well as Gurugram and Manesar, with by-elections for Ambala and Sonipat's mayoral posts occurring the same day.
Panipat residents cast their votes on March 9. Elections for 21 municipal committees were held concurrently.
A notable decline in voter participation was observed, with turnout at a mere 41%, marking a record low in comparison to the 68% witnessed during the Assembly elections.
Additionally, 26 ward members were elected unopposed, including Kuldeep Singh (Faridabad), Vikas Yadav (Gurugram), Sankalp Bhandari and Sanjeev Kumar Mehta (Karnal), and Bhavna (Yamunanagar).

Arvind Kejriwal lauded the people of Delhi for their efforts to end the flow of contaminated water, reducing ammonia levels significantly. He accused Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini of attempting to influence the Delhi elections.

Arvind Kejriwal declares success as ammonia levels in Yamuna drop following AAP intervention

Arvind Kejriwal lauded the people of Delhi for their efforts to end the flow of contaminated water, reducing ammonia levels significantly. He accused Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini of attempting to influence the Delhi elections.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal expressed his gratitude to the people of Delhi for their "struggle" that successfully halted the supply of contaminated water.&nbsp;
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Kejriwal shared that the ammonia levels in the water brought to Delhi had decreased significantly from 7 parts per million (ppm) to 2 ppm, effectively averting a potential water crisis.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
दिल्लीवासियों को बहुत-बहुत बधाई। हम सबका संघर्ष रंग लाया। दिल्ली में जो ज़हरीला पानी भेजा जा रहा था, वो अब बंद हो गया। दिल्ली में आने वाले पानी में अमोनिया की मात्रा 7 ppm से घटकर 2 ppm हो गई है। अगर हम आवाज़ नहीं उठाते और संघर्ष नहीं करते, तो आज दिल्ली की आधी आबादी को पानी नहीं&hellip; <a href="https://t.co/9tNzvvr0zb">pic.twitter.com/9tNzvvr0zb</a>
&mdash; Arvind Kejriwal (@ArvindKejriwal) <a href="https://twitter.com/ArvindKejriwal/status/1885219356138697164?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 31, 2025</a></blockquote>
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
He celebrated this achievement, stating, "Many congratulations to the people of Delhi. Our struggle bore fruit. The poisonous water that was being sent to Delhi has now stopped. The amount of ammonia in the water coming to Delhi has decreased from 7 ppm to 2 ppm. If we had not raised our voice and struggled, half the population of Delhi would not have been getting water today. We saved Delhi from a huge water crisis."
In the same post, Kejriwal also commented on a notice issued by the Election Commission, which had threatened him regarding his statements on the water crisis. He addressed the matter directly, saying, "The Election Commission has issued a notice and threatened me. My reply to the Election Commission."
Earlier on Friday, Kejriwal had sent a letter to the Election Commission, accusing Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini of being complicit in the water contamination issue.&nbsp;
In his letter, Kejriwal demanded that a criminal case be filed against Saini, claiming the ammonia levels in the raw water supplied to Delhi from Haryana had reached dangerous and unprecedented heights. He pointed out that ammonia levels began to sharply increase around January 15, with the contamination reaching 7 ppm shortly after.&nbsp;
Kejriwal further explained that Delhi&rsquo;s Chief Minister, Atishi, had contacted the Haryana CM several times in an attempt to resolve the crisis, but her efforts were unsuccessful.
In the letter, Kejriwal detailed that Delhi's Chief Minister had personally requested Haryana's CM in December to either reduce the ammonia levels or provide additional water to dilute the contamination. Although Haryana&rsquo;s CM assured action would be taken, Kejriwal claimed no meaningful steps were made, and eventually, the Haryana CM stopped answering calls from Delhi&rsquo;s CM.
Kejriwal alleged that there was a "deliberate conspiracy" on the part of Haryana's CM, a BJP leader, to influence the Delhi elections by sending highly polluted water to the capital.&nbsp;
He argued that the strategy was aimed at creating an artificial water crisis that would have blamed the AAP government in Delhi. This, Kejriwal claimed, would have led to severe public misery for millions of Delhi residents.
Meanwhile, the Election Commission held an urgent meeting with Arvind Kejriwal to discuss the matter, adjusting its schedule due to the ongoing election campaign in Delhi.&nbsp;
The Commission gave Kejriwal a chance to explain his claims regarding the water contamination and its alleged political motives.

Delhi CM Atishi writes to the Chief Election Commissioner, accusing Haryana of deliberately contaminating the Yamuna River with ammonia, impacting Delhi's water supply.

Delhi CM Atishi accuses Haryana of water terrorism over rising ammonia levels in Yamuna

Delhi CM Atishi writes to the Chief Election Commissioner, accusing Haryana of deliberately contaminating the Yamuna River with ammonia, impacting Delhi's water supply.

Delhi Chief Minister Atishi has written to the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) requesting immediate intervention regarding the rising ammonia levels in the Yamuna River, which she claims are impacting Delhi's water supply.
In her letter, CM Atishi pointed out that the Delhi Jal Board (DJB) water treatment plants are only designed to handle ammonia levels up to 1 ppm. She alleged that "the ammonia levels have steadily increased in the water coming from Haryana to Delhi via River Yamuna due to mixing of untreated sewage or industrial waste from Haryana, with levels rising over 7 ppm in the last two days, i.e., 700% beyond the treatable limit."
<img src="https://cdn.editorji.com/67987ea3a7c24_1738047139.jpg" width="450" height="636">
She further highlighted the serious consequences of these rising ammonia levels, stating, "These toxic levels of ammonia in water coming from Haryana have rendered Delhi's water treatment plants almost incapable of treating the water effectively, resulting in curtailment of water supply by 15 to 20% i.e. for approximately 34 lakhs people of Delhi. It is a known fact that high ammonia levels in drinking water can lead to a public health crisis causing ailments such as kidney damage, respiratory distress, and even long-term organ damage."
Atishi described the situation as "an act of water terrorism" and accused the Haryana government of intentionally disrupting Delhi's water supply to influence the upcoming elections.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
She said, "Despite knowing the toxic effects of releasing ammonia in raw water supply, the note of CEO of Delhi Jal Board leaves no doubt that it is due to the indiscriminate and deliberate dumping of untreated sewage and industrial waste from Haryana that is causing the present water supply crisis in Delhi. This is not an act of negligence; it is an act of water terrorism to deliberately impact the conduct of free and fair elections in Delhi."
In a post on social media platform X, CM Atishi wrote, "Ammonia levels continue to be 6 times above normal in Yamuna waters, at the point it is entering Delhi from Haryana. Such levels are extremely toxic for the human body. This water cannot be treated and supplied to the people of Delhi. Otherwise, their lives will be at risk."
She also requested an urgent meeting with the CEC to address the matter and ensure that the elections are not compromised by external factors. "I request you to give me time to meet you today itself regarding this urgent issue so that the elections in Delhi are not sabotaged by any external forces," CM Atishi wrote.
Earlier, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Saini criticized the AAP&rsquo;s allegations, stating that the AAP had failed to manage water distribution and was attempting to blame others.&nbsp;
He remarked, "It is his (Arvind Kejriwal) nature and thinking to allege and then run away. There's a saying, 'thooko aur bhago (spit and run)'. This is what Kejriwal does. I said that you send your chief secretary and I will ask my chief secretary to check the quality of water at Sonipat from where it (Yamuna) is entering Delhi," Saini said.

Haryana Chief Minister Naib Singh Saini has gained immense popularity for his efficient leadership, gentle style, and proactive governance.

Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini makes lasting impact in his first 100 days of second term

Haryana Chief Minister Naib Singh Saini has gained immense popularity for his efficient leadership, gentle style, and proactive governance.

Haryana Chief Minister Shri Nayab Singh Saini has become popular among the people due to his cheerful and soft-spoken style after proving majority for the first time in the Assembly on March 12, 2024 and his personality is more popular in the hearts of the people of the state than celebrities.&nbsp;
After the formation of Haryana, Shri Nayab Singh Saini is the first Chief Minister of the state who has gained popularity in such a short time due to his efficient working style, due to which the public has given the mandate to form the BJP government for the third time in Haryana.&nbsp;
In the second term of 100 days, the Chief Minister has succeeded in leaving an indelible mark in the hearts of the people.&nbsp;
Political experts believe that former Deputy Prime Minister and Haryana Chief Minister Chaudhary Devi Lal was also such a popular leader due to his sociable nature and due to this he was given the title of Tau.&nbsp;
Today, Shri Nayab Singh Saini's unique working style of meeting everyone easily has given him a different position in politics. The Chief Minister also keeps trending on social media platforms.&nbsp;
The number of his followers is increasing day by day. The Prime Minister has given the title of three 'V' to the Chief Minister Now the situation is such that even Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi is impressed by the simple personality of the Chief Minister.&nbsp;
Whenever Prime Minister Mr Modi is present as the chief guest on any big political platform or other function in Haryana, he often awards Mr Nayab Singh Saini with the title of three 'V' in his address.&nbsp;
The Prime Minister says that Mr Nayab Singh Saini is humble, prudent and scholarly, who has gained political popularity as the Chief Minister in such a short time.&nbsp;
Words and actions are the same, there is neither oppression nor corruption, thousands of jobs are being given without any expenditure Now the people of the state say about the Nayab government that words and actions are the same, there is neither oppression nor corruption, thousands of jobs are being given without any expenditure.&nbsp;
During the assembly elections, when the result of more than 25 thousand candidates of Group-C was declared by the Haryana Staff Selection Commission, the Chief Minister Mr. Nayab Singh Saini had promised that he would take oath as the Chief Minister later and first give appointment letters to the youth.&nbsp;
On October 17, 2024, before taking oath in Panchkula, Mr. Nayab Singh Saini gave appointment letters to 25 thousand youth, after which he himself took oath. Opposition is also impressed with the working style of the Chief Minister Not only this, many opposition leaders of the state are also impressed by the working style of the Chief Minister.&nbsp;
Generally, the opposition in Haryana politics has a tradition that whenever the Chief Minister of the ruling party comes to their assembly constituency to attend a big rally, they try to foil it, but Chief Minister Mr. Nayab Singh Saini has been successful in changing this tendency of the opposition.&nbsp;
Recently, the Chief Minister had participated in the foundation stone laying ceremony of the medical college in Sirsa and according to the protocol, the local MLA Shri Gokul Setia was to be invited to this program, but when the MLA came to know that his name was not in the list of those welcoming the Chief Minister, he left from the Air Force Airport.&nbsp;
When Chief Minister Shri Nayab Singh Saini came to know about this, he called MLA Gokul Setia to the airport and waited for 5 to 10 minutes for the MLA to arrive. After this, the Chief Minister took MLA Gokul Setia in his car and took him to the venue of the function. Not only this, the Chief Minister also gave Gokul Setia a chance to speak from the stage.&nbsp;
This gentle style of the Chief Minister makes him stand out from other leaders. On January 20, 2025, Chief Minister Mr. Nayab Singh Saini held a development rally in his home constituency Narayangarh, where he inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of projects worth more than Rs 43.50 crore.&nbsp;
When the rally was addressed by local Congress MLA Mrs. Shaili Chaudhary, the people present could not help but be surprised, because Mr. Nayab Singh Saini has a close relationship with Shaili Chaudhary's husband, former MLA Mr. Ramkishan Gurjar in politics.&nbsp;
The Chief Minister gave Mrs. Shaili Chaudhary an opportunity to speak from the stage. Mrs. Shaili started her address by calling Mr. Nayab Singh Saini a popular Chief Minister and spoke for about 15 minutes and praised the demands of the Narayangarh assembly constituency as well as many works of the government and the Chief Minister.&nbsp;
In response to this, Chief Minister Mr. Nayab Singh Saini said in his address that Narayangarh is his home constituency. Whatever demands the MLA will make will not only be considered sympathetically, but will also be fulfilled.

"My humble tribute to him. He served the state and society throughout his life. This is an irreparable loss for the politics of the country and Haryana state,&rdquo; Saini said on X.
Former chief minister and senior Congress leader Bhupinder Singh Hooda recalled that when Chautala was the chief minister, he was the Leader of Opposition in the Haryana assembly.
Chautala served the people of the state. There are many good memories with him, he said, adding that he was like his elder brother.
Congress leader Randeep Singh Hooda and Kumari Seja also condoled the death of Chautala.
Born on January 1, 1935, Om Prakash Chautala was the eldest of the five children of former deputy prime minister Chaudhary Devi Lal.
Chautala left studies after primary education. In 2013, when Chautala was lodged in Tihar Jail in connection with the teacher recruitment scam, he passed the class 10 and then class 12 examination at the age of 82.
He was jailed in 2013 in connection with the teacher recruitment scam case and released in 2021.
Chautala, his son Ajay Chautala, and 53 others, including IAS officer Sanjiv Kumar, were convicted and sentenced in the case of illegal recruitment of 3,206 junior basic teachers in 2000.
The former Haryana chief minister's younger son Abhay Singh Chautala is a senior leader of the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) while elder one Ajay Singh Chautala, a former MP, heads the Jannayak Janta Party, which was born after a vertical split in the party in December 2018 after a family feud.
Abhay's son Arjun is a Haryana MLA while Ajay Chautala's sons Dushyant and Digvijay are JJP leaders. Dushyant Chautala also served as Haryana's Deputy Chief Minister.
Chautala's party INLD had also remained an ally of BJP in the past. The INDL has been out of power since 2005 in Haryana.

Jannayak Janta Party leader and former Haryana deputy chief minister Dushyant Chautala on May 9 wrote the governor seeking a floor test to see if Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has the majority to run the government.
In a letter to the governor, Chautala said that his party is ready to back any political party for the government formation. The move comes after three independent MLAs withdrew their support to the ruling BJP.

Law enforcement agencies have seized about Rs 37 crore in drugs, liquor, unaccounted for cash, and other valubles in Haryana since the Model Code of Conduct for the Lok Sabha elections came into effect on March 16.
The Election Commission along with other enforcement agencies are continuously keeping a strict vigil on the movement of illicit liquor, drugs, and cash, Chief Electoral Officer, Anurag Agarwal said on Tuesday.
Till now, Rs 7.24 crore in cash has been seized. Apart from this, illicit liquor, drugs, and other valuables worth Rs 30.05 crore have also been seized, he said, according to an official statement.
