Uttarakhand, Nainital: As part of the Nasha Mukt Devbhoomi 2025 campaign, the Government Railway Police (GRP) Uttarakhand organized a comprehensive awareness program at Ramnagar railway station in Nainital district.

The attendees were encouraged to stay away from illegal substances and actively support efforts to create a drug-free society.
In addition to drug awareness, the program also covered essential aspects of cybercrime and online fraud.

Attendees were advised on preventive measures, such as safeguarding personal information, avoiding suspicious links, and verifying online transactions before proceeding.
Furthermore, railway security was a key focus of the session. Officials informed attendees about safety protocols, the importance of vigilance in crowded areas, and the role of the public in preventing untoward incidents. Passengers and railway staff were urged to report any suspicious activities, unattended baggage, or unauthorized persons within the railway premises.
As part of the campaign, an appeal was made to the public to report any instances of drug peddling or illegal activities related to narcotics. The police assured that the identity of informants would be kept confidential and encouraged people to cooperate in making the region safer.
