Circle Inspector Naveen said investigators are examining where the accused brought the ganja from and whether anyone else is behind its supply.[1] Sub-Inspector Madhu and other personnel took part in the operation.[1] The report places the operation at Kamalapur in Hanumakonda district.[1]
Naveen advised young people to stay away from ganja and other narcotic substances.[1] He appealed to the public to inform police immediately if they learn of illegal sale or supply of ganja or other drugs in villages, saying the names of informants trying to protect youth will be kept confidential.[1] He said youths under the influence of ganja are left in a state where they do not understand what they are doing, and described youths as the foundation of the country’s future.[1]
