Srinagar, May 4 -- Lieutenant governor (LG) Manoj Sinha on Saturday said drug smuggling as silent terrorism which will be dealt with in the same manner as the nation's enemies.

"I believe, drug smuggling is nothing less than terrorism- it is silent terrorism silently whittling away our youths and poisoning them and devastating families. That is why we have decided that drug smugglers will face the same fate in Jammu and Kashmir which is given to the nation's enemies," Sinha, who led a foot march against drug abuse here, said.

The rally held from Tourist Reception Centre (TRC) to city centre Lal Chowk , was joined by students, community leaders, civil society members, MLAs, politicians. A signature campaign was also held at Lal Chowk.
