Amit Shah to Conclude BJP's Anti-Drug Campaign in Jalandhar
BJP's Anti-Drug Campaign Reaches Jalandhar
On September 30, 2026, Union Home Minister Amit Shah will participate in the concluding event of the Bharatiya Janata Party's ('BJP') 'Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra' in Jalandhar, Punjab. He is expected to address a public gathering during this event. This campaign, which commenced on September 18 from Pathankot, has traversed all 117 assembly constituencies in Punjab over a span of 13 days, covering nearly 4,000 kilometers.
Campaign Highlights and Objectives
The BJP organized this initiative in four phases under the slogan 'BJP Da Naara - Nasha Mukana Saara'. The primary aim is to raise awareness about drug abuse and enhance public participation in combating this issue. Throughout the journey, the campaign has reached all 117 assembly constituencies in Punjab.
Addressing Key Challenges
During the campaign, the BJP highlighted three major challenges facing Punjab: the increasing misuse of narcotics, law and order issues, and corruption at various levels of governance.
Concluding Event in Jalandhar
The campaign will culminate in a public meeting at Paragpur village in Jalandhar. Preparations for this significant event are reportedly extensive, with expectations of party workers arriving from various regions of Punjab.
Political Significance of Amit Shah's Attendance
Amit Shah's presence at this event makes it a crucial political gathering for the BJP. According to reports, he will formally conclude the 'Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra' and address the assembly. However, political disagreements and accusations regarding drug policies continue among various parties. Therefore, discussions during Shah's address are likely to encompass not only drug-related issues but also law and order and governance matters in Punjab.
