Police seized four consignments in the last 4 months
While all the focus is on drug peddling in bigger cities, the Shivamogga police are engaged in efforts to tackle the consumption and sale of ganja coming from the Andhra-Odisha Border (AOB) area.
In the last four months, the Shivamogga police seized four consignments, each weighing over 20 kg of ganja. In all the four incidents, it was the “Sheelavathi Ganja” sourced from Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh that was seized.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
