As part of efforts to reduce the threat of narcotic drugs, district police, acting on orders from SP Vikrant Patil, are planning public awareness campaigns to inform the public—especially young people—about the negative effects of narcotic substances like ganja and drugs and to encourage people to report drug-related incidents.

Kurnool police have implemented a cutting-edge and efficient reporting system that makes use of QR code technology as part of this programme and to improve public participation. Police stations and popular public locations like marketplaces, bus stops, and community centres have prominently displayed QR codes. The public are urged to use their smartphones to scan these QR codes.

After scanning, users are sent to a safe website where they may privately exchange information on illicit drug usage, possession, sale, or cultivation in their area. The police stress that since this approach guarantees anonymity, more individuals will come forward without worrying about reprisals.

According to police officers, raising awareness is just as important as enforcing the law. The irrevocable harm that drugs inflict must be understood by young people. Technology and community collaboration can help us better address this escalating danger.

The district police asked everyone to be on guard and help this admirable cause by reporting any suspicious activity right away. Their cooperation may make a big difference in protecting the younger generation’s health, safety, and future.
