Raising questions about the state government’s handling of the drug menace, President of the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) Shaktisinh Gohil, took to social media, and stated, “Ten packets containing 12 kilograms of cocaine, worth ₹120 crore in the international market, have been recovered from Kutch district in Gujarat. Cocaine, which is ruining the youth, is being found every other day in Gujarat. The BJP government is not concerned. Has the BJP assumed power for such developments?”
