The rise in drug addiction among the youth has driven some individuals to resort to theft.

The following day, school staff discovered the burglary and promptly alerted the police. Acting swiftly, the police registered a case and began investigating the incident. Thanks to the crucial evidence captured on CCTV cameras, authorities were able to identify and apprehend a notorious thief named Karthik Debbarma from Ambasa heartland on Monday.
