Police Not Only Demolish Houses, They Also Rebuild Lives – SSP Khanna Sets Another Example
After Assurance from Local Residents, Relief Granted to Drug Peddler’s Family from Proposed Bulldozer Action
Khanna, Ludhiana, February 12, 2026: Under the ongoing anti-drug campaign launched by Khanna Police, SSP Khanna Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia’s vision, sensitivity, and humane decision-making are being widely appreciated. Following the Punjab Government and Police’s decision to adopt the notorious Meat Market area of Khanna—previously known for drug trafficking—Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia has taken yet another significant and heart-touching step, setting a remarkable example before society.
According to the information received, demolition orders had been issued for the house of the grandmother of a drug trafficker operating in the area. However, before carrying out the action, under the directions of SSP Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia, police and administrative officials interacted with local residents and conducted a thorough review of the situation. The residents assured the authorities that no illegal activities would be allowed in the future and that the concerned trafficker would not be permitted to re-enter the area.
Prioritizing not only the strict enforcement of the law but also humanity and social responsibility, the administration considered the current financial and family condition of the trafficker’s elderly grandmother and decided to exercise leniency. On humanitarian grounds, the decision was taken not to demolish the house, thereby giving the locality an opportunity to reform. This decision reflects that under the leadership of Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia, Khanna Police’s policy is not limited to punishment alone, but also focused on guiding society toward reform.
SDM Swati Tiwanna and DSP Vinod Kumar were also present on the occasion. They educated residents about the harmful effects of drugs and stated that under the leadership of SSP Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia, Khanna Police is continuously taking sensitive and effective steps toward building a drug-free society.
Local residents openly appreciated the humane decision taken by SSP Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia. They stated that strict action often results in innocent family members suffering. However, in this case, along with justice, compassion was also shown, which is truly commendable.
It is noteworthy that under the leadership of SSP Dr. Darpan Ahluwalia, Khanna Police has launched major campaigns against drugs, resulting in the arrest of several big traffickers, seizure of illegal properties, and dismantling of drug trafficking networks. Alongside enforcement, awareness campaigns are also being conducted to promote social reform and guide youth toward a positive path.
