Express Investigation: Inside Kashmir Valley's drug addiction crisis
The Kashmir Valley's devastating pandemic of drug addiction has tightly clenched its grip on the youth, overburdened its public health systems, filled up detention centers, and inflicted families with insurmountable tragedies — an Indian Express investigation has revealed.
For over two months, the paper visited several addiction treatment centers across the region and spoke to the affected families, doctors, bureaucrats, and police officers to understand the unprecedented scale of the problem. In this episode, we speak to Naveed Iqbal, who led the investigation, about its biggest findings.
