By invoking extraordinary powers under PIT NDPS Act, 71 repeat offenders involved in over 300 cases were detained in last 2 years

- HT Correspondent

CHANDIGARH: The Haryana Police have decided to invoke the extraordinary powers under the Prevention of Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (PIT NDPS) Act to detain 25 repeat drug offenders, in what will be another wave of arrests in April to further dismantle the drug trafficking ecosystem.

Already the police have nabbed 71 repeat drug offenders who were cumulatively involved in 337 cases of drugs under PIT NDPS Act between January 2023 and March 2025. The PIT NDPS Act is a potent legal tool that allows the preventive detention of habitual offenders involved in drug trafficking, up to one year without trial.

"With 25 more cases under active preparation, the Haryana Police are showing no signs of slowing down in its fight against the drug menace," said OP Singh, chief of the Haryana State Narcotics Control Bureau (HSNCB).
