Apprehending big fishes only will help curb the drug menace,\u201d sources said.<br \/>\nThey said Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha will lead the drive of Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan trying to cover almost every district in Jammu and Kashmir beginning Jammu from April 11. Programmes and schedules for other districts of the Jammu region which the LG will cover are being finalized.<br \/>\nHowever, a similar drive in the Kashmir Valley is likely to start in the month of May.<br \/>\n\u201cSmuggling of drugs from across the border also remains a major challenge as the trade is being used for financing terrorism. The drugs coming from Pakistan fetch four-time rates on reaching Jammu and Kashmir, seven times in Punjab and 10 times in Delhi,\u201d the sources said, adding sometimes the amount generated from drug deals is also used to finance the terrorism.<br \/>\nSecurity forces are already maintaining high alert at both Line of Control (LoC) as well as International Border (IB) not only to check infiltration of terrorists but also drug smuggling though different modes.The administration has also drawn a proposal for rehabilitation of the drug victims.<br \/>\n\u201cOnce a youth is out of the drug menace, he can be helped by the administration with self-financing schemes,\u201d the sources said.<br \/>\nThe administration has also proposed that the Health Department will open one to two Rehabilitation Centers in every district for treatment of drug-addicts. However, as far as existing private Rehabilitation Centers are concerned, sources said, they will have to comply with norms of the Government or otherwise action will be taken against them.<br \/>\nSources said the MLAs, ex legislators, social reformers religious leaders, sports personalities, artists, painters, Padma awardees and other such personalities can also play their roles in curbing the drug menace and hopefully they will join the drive being launched from April 11.<br \/>\nPolice has been told to ensure that their cases pertaining to drugs stand before the court of law which will keep the drug dealers behind the bars for a long time.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36323\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36323\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-36323\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/lg-16-1-300x212.jpg\" alt=\"Identify big drug dealers &amp;
