The Kerala Police has launched a comprehensive joint initiative named ‘Operation Toofan’ aimed at completely eradicating the drug menace in the state. Jointly implemented by the police, excise, education, and health departments, the project has been introduced to dismantle organized networks targeting the state’s youth. IG Intelligence Vimaladitya IPS has been appointed as the nodal officer to lead this state-wide campaign.

Speaking at the launch, authorities issued a stern warning to drug traffickers, emphasizing that law enforcement will act without considering status, wealth, or position. Special instructions have been given to the Cyber Cell to track the digital footprints of transactions happening on the Dark Web. Furthermore, strict inspections will be conducted across all sectors, including caravans, five-star hotels, and DJ parties, with absolutely no exemptions for anyone.
