Councillor Pankaj, along with a police team, raided a house and arrested a person on the charge of selling ganja to youths from the residence in Rajiv Colony, Sector 17, today.

As soon as the team from the Sector 16 police post, led by in-charge Sushil Kumar, reached the house, the suspect let loose his dogs on them. However, the police managed to enter the house and arrested the youth along with the contraband. He has been identified as Rohit Kumar.
