Earlier, the CM inaugurated a cricket match in Dehra to create awareness about the drug menace, organised as part of the “Kanoon Vidyalaya” awareness campaign launched by the police department of Dehra district. He also showcased his batting skills.

Speaking on the occasion, the CM emphasised the role of sports in promoting a spirit of sportsmanship and discipline among the youth. He said that such initiatives not only encourage physical fitness but also serve as effective platforms for raising awareness about the harmful effects of drugs. He advised the younger generation to lead a healthy and drug-free life.

Dehra SP Mayank Chaudhary said that the Dehra police would continue to take forward this initiative in the future. He said the police have been actively engaging with gram panchayats, students and taxi drivers to spread awareness on drug abuse, cybercrime, law and order and road safety.

Sukhvinder Sukhu also unveiled the statue of great emperor Prithviraj Chauhan at the main chowk in Dehra, which was relocated from some other place. He named this chowk as Prithviraj Chauhan Chowk, which, according to him, will become a symbol of pride not only for the Rajput community but for the entire region. His wife and local MLA Kamlesh Thakur was also present along with him.

During his tour, he inspected various development projects going on in the area and listened to the problems of the people.

He also visited the Rajput Kalyan Sabha in Dehra. While interacting with the people of the society, he said that the state government is committed to the social, cultural and historical preservation of different communities. He said, “Dehra is the land of heroes and it is our priority to preserve its historical and cultural heritage.”
