On May 4, 2025, the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) arrested two doctors in Amritsar for smuggling banned drugs. The arrested individuals are Dr. Jatinder Malhotra, owner of a corporate hospital in the city, and Dr. Varinder Singh, also known as Rajan. Authorities recovered 2,000 intoxicating pills during the operation.

The NCB conducted the operation after receiving information about illegal drug activities involving medical professionals. The seizure of such a large quantity of banned substances indicates a serious breach of medical ethics and the law. The involvement of healthcare providers in drug smuggling raises concerns about the misuse of medical facilities for illegal purposes.

This incident highlights the need for stricter monitoring of medical institutions and professionals to prevent such illegal activities. The NCB's swift action demonstrates their commitment to combating drug-related crimes. Further investigations are ongoing to uncover the full extent of the smuggling network and to ensure that those involved are held accountable.
