MANALI: The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has asked owners of hotels, restaurants and bars in Mandi, Kullu and Manali to affix steel signboards displaying warning messages to spread awareness against drugs.
Kullu and Mandi districts are most affected by drugs, especially charas. Now, rising cases of synthetic drugs are becoming a growing headache for agencies. NCB had chosen Mandi district, which is also gateway to Kullu-Manali, as its office in Himachal. Now it has directed hotels, restaurants and bars to not just warn but also spread awareness to stop sale, purchase and consumption of drugs.
