Mangaluru: Three students were caught by the college authorities after approximately 290 grams of ganja, packed in multiple small packets, was found in their possession.
“After awareness drives, the College strengthened the monitoring system and started checking actively and found these 3 students in possession and informed the Police station. Medical testing confirmed that all three of them have consumed the substance. FIR was registered under NDPS Act, including Sections 27(b) (consumption) and 8(c),” City Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy said.
The student who allegedly brought the ganja to the college was produced before the magistrate. Considering his educational status and the quantity involved, the court granted him bail on surety. Police officials are pursuing the peddler who supplied the ganja to the students.
According to the police, many colleges are proactively conducting checks and their Anti-Drug Committees (ADCs) are functioning effectively. Officials expressed confidence that if all institutions showed similar commitment, completely drug-free and healthy campuses could be created within a short period.
