Punjab has initiated a large-scale law enforcement drive called ‘Operation Parhar’ with the objective of eliminating organized gangster networks. The operation involves the deployment of around 2,000 police teams across the state to target not only major gangsters but also their associates. The initiative focuses on dismantling the complete criminal ecosystem, including financial support systems, logistics, safe houses, weapons supply, and communication networks. To encourage public participation, an Anti-Gangster Helpline has been introduced, ensuring confidentiality and swift action. This comprehensive approach reflects the state’s commitment to creating a safer and gangster-free environment.
