This initiative had a broader impact on the crime rate in the region, with a noticeable decrease in theft and burglary incidents, issues often tied to drug addiction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">In 2023, 152 cases of theft and burglary were registered, underscoring the influence of effective policing on reducing associated crimes. Beyond enforcement, the operation included comprehensive awareness campaigns. These efforts, conducted in schools, colleges, and rehabilitation centers, aimed to educate the youth on the risks of drug abuse and fostered a supportive environment for those seeking rehabilitation. As a result, many individuals with addiction issues were encouraged to pursue de-addiction programs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Superintendent Gambo lauded the collaboration between the community and police, acknowledging the crucial role of public support in the campaign\u2019s success. He encouraged continued cooperation as preparations for \u2018Operation Dawn 2.0\u2019 are underway, promising to build on the accomplishments of the past year and further curb the regional drug menace. This initiative not only disrupted drug supply chains but also played a vital role in deterring youth from addiction, contributing to a safer community in Naharlagun.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2024, the Naharlagun Police in Arunachal Pradesh successfully executed \u2018Operation Dawn\u2019, yielding substantial results in their fight against drug-related offences.
