नशे की प्रवृत्ति चाहे जैसी भी हो, अत्यन्त ही पीड़ा प्रदान करती है, वह चाहे धूम्रपान, पेय पदार्थ या अन्य प्रकार से लिया गया हो। लोगों को इस सम्बन्ध में जागरुक बनाने के साथ ही साथ उसका उत्पादन भी बन्द किया जाना चाहिए, केवल जागरुकता मात्र से कार्य नहीं पूरा होगा उसका भलीभाँति उत्पादन, वितरण सब कुछ बन्द करना होगा, माना कि सरकार को उससे प्राप्त होने वाले आय में कमी आयेगी परन्तु उस आय को किसी अन्य स्रोत से भी लिया जा सकता है। किसी का जीवन बर्बाद करने का अधिकार किसी को नहीं है। - ब्रह्मानन्द मिश्र।

Increase the cigarate & gutaka price so people can think before buying it. Take very higher tax those who are making it. Training for Yoga & Meditation for every child. Political willing to stop this the drugs in India. Because if you like to search who is drug supplier/ Maphiya. you will find our leader who may be a minister in the Gov. or a strong leader of other party. Presently our PM is very strong who can stop & ban all Maphiya whose are active in our country.

Youngsters should be encouraged to indulge themselves in extra co-curricular activities, so that their energy level gets good direction. As todays generation is hyper active, we need to give them space, understand them and find out the ways to channelize their energy level in right direction. I think they can do wonders if directed properly. Easy access of drugs to these youngsters should be taken care of. Media should play more active role in this regard. This should become part of loktantra

education about this should be given in schools and colleges and 100 % ban on cigarates and ghuthkas is important as it is the starting way to drugs

I deal with the pain medication epidemic in USA. Learning lesson for us in India is to make sure medications are available for cancer pain and advanced arthritic pain through trained pain physicians and specialty pharmacies. These physicians and pharmacies should be monitored for compliance. Offenders will be liable for monetary penalties, losing their license and jail term. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT for drug trafficers will discourage criminals. Education through mass media will help immensely.

Children & teenagers should be educated abt serious consequences of drugs. Infact, parents shd not give too much pocket money to children & teenagers & keep check on their friendscircle, use of money & activities. Best healthy way to stop children from being imbalanced & obsessed abt such risky things, is to make them busy in some responsible creative activities.. any doubtful selling activities near schools & colleges should be immediately reported to & checked by police.

Major causes of drug menace, obsessed imbalanced mind of victim due to too much money in pocket, lack of responsibility sense even abt consequences, obsession to try risky things. To restrict drug supply hightech cheking machines with sensors needed at checkposts, security checks of airports railways. Some night-fun-joins shd b checked strictly. victims shd b rehabilitated with care. Education awareness abt serious consequences needed to teen agers. alance obsessed mind of victim.

Right to the right education is the key to success . we are our own friend and our own enemy. उद्धरेदात्मनात्मानम् नात्मानमवसादयेत् । आत्मैव ह्यात्मनो बन्धुरात्मैव रिपुरात्मन: ॥ . that is what you have to teach them. Gita clearly states we are the ones who pull ourself up and we are the ones who bring ourselves down .
