J-K Police Attach Drug Peddler's Property Worth Rs 4 Crore
Police in Srinagar, a city in India, are working to stop people from selling harmful drugs.
They found a person who they say sells drugs.
This person owned a big piece of property worth 4 crore rupees.
Four crore rupees is a very large amount of money.
The police took the property away from the drug seller.
They used a special law called the NDPS Act.
This law lets police take things bought with money made from drugs.
Now the drug seller cannot use that property anymore.
This is a way to show that crime does not pay.
The police announced this news on Monday.
Srinagar Police attached an immovable property worth approximately Rs 4 crore in Budgam district.
The action was taken under the provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, 1985.
