Terrorism, drug peddling grave threats: DGP Prabhat
‘Charity begins at home, have cut my security by two third’

Early Times Report

Jammu, Mar 6: Terming terrorism and drug peddling as equally grave threats to the society Director General of Police (DGP) J&K Nalin Prabhat on Thursday said that he would rate fight against drugs and fight against terrorism on equal pedestal.
Speaking at Thana Diwas here the DGP said, “Drugs are reaching here through western borders. The entire narcotics racket is managed by Pakistan Army and ISI through different tanzeems (outfits) and through smugglers. This is a challenge and J&K Police will keep on fighting with it till the battle is won."
He said that he equates war against drugs at an "equal pedestal" with war against terrorism. "Both the wars are on."
He expressed concern over school going children getting involved in drug trade. "It's unfortunate that even school children, in uniform, are found selling small bags of drugs and other contraband substances. It’s the duty of the parents to keep a vigil at the activities of their children," the DGP added.
He said that a major manpower optimization drive has been initiated to improve resource allocation. "There is a saying that charity begins at home, so I have initiated it from myself, by reliving two thirds of my security guards, "he said.
The DGP said that "Rome was not built in a day" and all the battles will be won eventually.
Referring to the incentivization of the police personnel DGP Prabhat said, " From day one I have said in different meetings that whoever does good work, he will get a good posting."
He said, " I have told everyone that do some big work for the country and within one minute you will get the posting you want."
