Now these paid trollers will even prove this video to be from Ganganagar.”ਜਗਰਾਉਂ ਪੁਲ ਵੀ ਰਾਜਸਥਾਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੈ ਦੱਸੋ paid trollers ?? ਹੁਣੇ ਏਨਾ paid trollers ਨੇ ਇੱਸ ਵੀਡੀਓ ਨੂੰ ਵੀ ਗੰਗਾਨਗਰ ਦੀ ਸਾਬਿਤ ਕਰ ਦੇਣਾ । ਪੰਜਾਬ 💔💔 https://t.co/g5pnDCeYTH— Harbhajan Turbanator (@harbhajan_singh) August 22, 2026Meanwhile, Additional DCP (Operations) Sandeep Kumar Wadhera, along with the SHO of Kotwali, inspected the same spot and stated that the Punjab government has been carrying out an anti-drug drive on a war footing.“We are at the same spot, and it appears that an old video has been made viral on social media. We did not find anyone taking drugs here,” he said.ADCP Wadhera said that the Kotwali police, under whose jurisdiction the area falls, had registered 74 cases under the NDPS Act in recent days.As many as 110 people found to be addicted to drugs were shifted to OOAT clinics for rehabilitation, while 50 of them were undergoing treatment at drug de-addiction centres.
