Members of the Revolutionary Marxist Party of India (RMPI) and CPI Liberation took out a protest march against drugs here on Wednesday.
The march led by Harwinder Singh Sema and Bhagwant Singh Samao started from the Fire Brigade chowk and concluded at the district administrative complex.
Thereafter, the members submitted a memorandum to Naib Tehsildar Lakhvir Singh Virk.
