As part of the drive against narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances ordered by Director-General of Police C. Sylendra Babu, the Narcotics Intelligence Bureau-CID organized a competition among the police of all districts to produce short films to educate the people on the ill-effects of drug abuse and motivate them to share any input that could avert the storage, distribution and consumption of drugs.
