"There are some Ministers and MLAs in the State who cannot work on their files before being fed with certain drugs and there are apprehensions that certain drug addicts might be among them as well", O Joy alleged, adding that since certain leaders of the State are engaged in drug smuggling business, all the Acts and laws of the State have remained defunct.
O Joy went on to say that it is because of the administrative failure in the State that Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985 has not been able to implement in the State.
The Ministers and the MLAs seem to forget that they too would not be spared from the impact of drugs in the State.
The problem of drug in Manipur can be overcome only when the loopholes in the administration could be corrected, the SIU is re-instituted and necessary legal action is taken up against those involved in smuggling case promptly.
