Where 52 % of Cops are alcoholics or addicts

Can you ever believe a Police force in which 52 % of Cops are alcoholics or addicted to drugs. Yes, Punjab state Police in India is having that many numbers as alcoholics or addicted to drugs. As per one Times of India report:

There can’t be an irony greater than this: the same force that fought the terrorists which included many drugged or drug-peddling militants, is today reporting more and more of its own victims to the scour-ge of substance abuse and addiction.

A survey conducted by the police department in border districts of Amritsar, Taran Taran and Gurdaspur has put the percentage of addicts, including alcoholics, in the police force at a staggering 52%. IG (borderzone) R P Meena said, "Over half of the cops in border regions are alcoholics or into drugs.

They are up to rank of inspectors." While many of the cops have turned alcoholic, the rest are falling prey to opium. There is also a small percentage of policemen who use drugs like smack and heroin.

Squirrel Addicted to Bhang (marijuana)

Bhang is a type of weak marijuana. Bhang is widely available in many parts of India and there is only a mild social stigma attached to it compared to smoking marijuana outright. In India, it is an accepted tradition for many to drink Bhang on special occasions, such as during the Holi festival.

Now as per one "India-TV" report, there is a Sadhu / Baba named "Suraj Nath" in Ujjain city in Madhya Pradesh state of India who himself is addicted to "Bhang (marijuana)" & chews this in its coarse form daily many times. He lives over there in Ujjain under a tree & he has made an unusual friendship with a "Squirrel" living up that tree.

Strange thing is that his friend "Squirrel" is also addicted to Bhang (marijuana) which Sadhu shares with the Squirrel. Whenever, Baba Suraj Nath have an urge to chew Bhang (marijuana), he takes small quantity of it on his palm & calls the Squirrel from the tree. Addict Squirrel on hearing the call from Baba comes running down to the Baba & starts chewing the Bhang from his hand.

After eating good quantity of it, Squirrel goes out of control due to its effect & have a nice sleep. Everyday, Baba Suraj Nath offers this Bhang (marijuana) to the Squirrel many times & the little animal is so addicted to it that it likes Bhang more than food or fruits.
