Srinagar, Apr 28 (JKNS): In a strong move against the drug menace, SSP Anantnag Amod Ashok Nagpure has directed that individuals involved in drug-related cases will not be granted security clearance in any form, officials said on Tuesday.
An official told agency JKNS, SSP Anantnag Maod Ashok Nagpure IPS has ordered that all drug-linked individuals will be clearly flagged during passport verification and job-related background checks.
The directive further states that narcotics-related cases must be properly recorded and reflected in official verification reports to ensure strict scrutiny at all levels of administrative and security clearance processes.
