Kota : The poison of drugs is spreading rapidly in Coaching City Kota. Students coming to Kota from all over the country are becoming soft targets of the drugs mafia. Drug carriers first win the trust of children by helping them in their daily tasks, then get them involved in drugs in the name of ‘pills’ to increase concentration in studies. In the first week-15 days, the habit starts with one pudiya or pill, then gradually it becomes an addiction.
Drugs suppliers have set up bases around coaching and hostel dominated areas, from where drugs are supplied on call. Different codewords of MD, Ganja, Smack and Charas are also in use in different areas of Kota. Drug trade is done in code words like Pudiya, Banshee, Ticket, Bachcha, Maal, Tube, Panni, PP and Dibba. Here drugs are being sold on every street for Rs 200. Drugs worth Rs 40 to 50 lakh are sold daily in the city.
The team stayed among the traders for 7 days
To expose the drug network, the team traveled to different areas of the city for seven days and took the pulse of the drug dealers. Collected information related to drug trade by visiting drug dens, dealers, middlemen, suppliers and drug addicts in the city. During this time it was revealed that drug dealers were also making home delivery to the students. Booking is done on social media and drugs are supplied on numberless bikes.
The goods are from Himachal… you will not get anything better than this.
A minor was found selling ganja and hashish at a tea stall on the road leading from Gobariya stepwell to Indraprastha industrial area. When told the code, he took 200 rupees and gave a bundle of ganja. Is the product pure or not? When asked, he said – This is the genuine product… it is from Himachal. You won’t find anything better than this anywhere in Kota.
Take it… If you have any problem then take this number. Patrika team asked a young man for more pudiya and he said – The more you ask, the more goods you will get. Just save this mobile number.
Home delivery of Ganja, Charas and MD
Here two youths were selling charas, ganja and MD from inside a house. They were also guaranteeing that goods like this would not be found anywhere in the entire Kota. Police don’t catch? So the young man said – I have given 25 thousand rupees to the police two days ago. Take my mobile number, I will get home delivery anywhere in the city.
