Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu launched a public movement on Saturday (November 15, 2025) to eradicate ‘chitta’ (heroin) from the State, vowing that drug traffickers who destroy young lives and tear families apart would find no refuge in the hill State.
“Our police is ready, our government is ready, and more importantly, our people are ready to rout out chitta. ‘Chitta-Free Himachal’ is not merely a governmental initiative but is a people’s movement,” he said, addressing a gathering after the ‘Chitta-Virodh’ (oppose heroin) awareness walkathon from the Ridge to Chaura Maidan in Shimla.
