Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The campaign is being organized under the theme of 'Nasha Mukt Punjab' (Drug-Free Punjab). The event is viewed as a major political mobilization by the Bharatiya Janata Party ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections in the state. The party is using the issue of drug addiction as a primary platform for its outreach.

The political tour takes place while the state of Punjab is undergoing elections and facing ongoing issues related to border infiltration and drug issues with Pakistan.
