"We have decided to further strengthen the crackdown against drugs and narcotic substances. The coming week is crucial, as we have decided to give instructions to police in border districts for more stricter measures against drugs coming into the state from inter-state borders," Bommai said.

Also, there is a need to further strengthen the CCB that is reviewing the case in Bengaluru, Bommai said, as the CCB is under the burden of several cases, its purview and base need to further strengthen by posting more officials and providing more facilities. He further added, "We will be making certain decisions in this regard in the coming days."
