Greater Noida Police Crush 1,600 Litres of Illegal Liquor in Major Anti-Smuggling Drive
Greater Noida Police destroyed 1,600 litres of illegal liquor in Surajpur following court orders, dealing a major blow to illicit alcohol smuggling. The operation highlights the police commissionerate’s strict enforcement against unlawful trade and its appeal for public cooperation.
According to officials, the operation was executed by the Surajpur police station team as part of sustained enforcement measures against narcotics and illegal intoxicants. The seized liquor, accumulated from multiple cases, was taken to a designated site where it was emptied into a deep pit and destroyed using heavy machinery, including a bulldozer, to ensure it could never re-enter the supply chain.
Senior police officers confirmed that the destruction was conducted strictly in compliance with judicial orders and established legal procedures. The method of disposal was chosen to guarantee complete and irreversible elimination of the contraband, preventing any possibility of reuse, resale, or diversion into the black market.
Authorities said the action reflects the police commissionerate’s zero-tolerance approach toward illegal liquor networks, which pose serious risks to public health, law and order, and community safety. Such operations, they added, are part of a broader strategy to dismantle smuggling routes and deter offenders through visible and firm enforcement.
The Greater Noida Police also appealed to residents to actively support the fight against illegal liquor by remaining vigilant and promptly reporting suspicious activities. Officials emphasized that public cooperation plays a crucial role in identifying unlawful operations and strengthening preventive action.
The destruction of the seized alcohol marks a significant step in the region’s ongoing campaign against illicit trade, underscoring the administration’s commitment to safeguarding public welfare and reinforcing the rule of law through coordinated legal and policing efforts.
