In a shocking breach of trust, a Punjab police constable, who was supposed to combat drug trafficking, has been arrested with heroin valued at a staggering ₹40 crore. Tasked with preventing drone-based drug smuggling along the International Border, this arrest raises urgent questions about accountability and integrity within the police force. What measures are in place to ensure that those meant to protect the public are not themselves engaging in criminal activity?

The incident has sparked outrage among citizens, who demand transparency and action against corruption. How can the government assure the public of safety and justice when those in charge are allegedly involved in drug trafficking? This scandal not only undermines the efforts to combat drug abuse but also endangers the lives of countless individuals caught in the crossfire of the drug trade.

As reported by NDTV, this incident underscores the urgent need for systemic reforms in policing and drug enforcement. Citizens are left wondering: who will be held accountable for this blatant betrayal of duty?
