The Punjab Police intensified its efforts against organized crime on Tuesday, executing 523 raids across the state. This operation, part of the ongoing 'Gangster Te Vaar' campaign, resulted in the arrest of 174 individuals suspected of involvement in criminal activities. The raids targeted known hideouts and suspected associates of gangsters operating in Punjab. The police are actively pursuing leads to dismantle criminal networks and bring perpetrators to justice.
