Divya  Delhi: The Bhagwant Mann administration, which is run by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), announced important measures and allocated 260 crore to combat the drug issue in their signature goal, "Yudh Nasheyan Virudh," which was prominently included in the budget. Harpal Singh Cheema, the state's finance minister, acknowledged that drugs posed the greatest danger to Punjab's development and prosperity and pointed out that most of the narcotics were imported. Since the 50 km stretch of the international border is under the authority of the Border Security Force, the Union government has the principal responsibility for ending the smuggling of narcotics and weapons across borders. Still, the (drug) problem is very much alive and well. Cheema announced in his budget address that two new projects would be launched to "complement the efforts of the BSF" in their fight against drug smuggling across international borders. In addition to the BSF, Cheema said that the state government will send 5,000 home guards to the border to serve as a second line of defense. To keep an eye on Punjab's future, its most resolute youth will be chosen to serve as house guards.
