According to police sources, this search operation was kept completely confidential. Its preparations were completed at night itself. In the morning, the teams were informed about the location. The teams reached the areas around 5 a.m. and started the search operation in the possible areas.
The Police Commissioner himself is reviewing this search operation so that there is no mistake. It is worth noting that this search operation has been done within 48 hours of the transfer of a large number of police personnel.
Continuous search operations are going on throughout Punjab. According to police records, 246 big drug smugglers are currently out of jail due to bail or other reasons. These smugglers try to strengthen their network as soon as they come out. That is why these search operations are being conducted so that, apart from these smugglers, their network can also be broken.
