BIZARRE: Explain action taken to tackle drug menace bjp | Mind Blowing Facts

Telangana Bharatiya Janata Party president and MP Bandi Sanjay Kumar demanded that the TRS Government explain the steps taken to control the drug menace since the investigations began into it in 2015. “The twin cities has become the drug and booze capital and all the credit goes to this government,” he remarked in a sarcastic tone.

Addressing a press conference at the party office, the BJP chief charged Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao with seemingly “remaining unconcerned” about the rampant drug abuse among youth which is keeping worried parents on the tenterhooks. “The Chief Minister should inform the people about what his government has done to control this and why this reluctance to cooperate with the Enforcement Directorate which wants to investigate the terror angle,” he said.

Mr. Sanjay Kumar said the government’s actions raise suspicions about “whom it wants to shield”. “Who has given permissions for pubs to run late into the night and round the clock? Who is involved in the drugs supply? These names should be revealed at the same time we are against dragging families into this,” he maintained.
