During the ‘Mann Ki Baat’ Radio programme, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi shared that a large number of people have been talking to him about the increase in usage of drugs. The Prime Minister described this as a very serious issue and assured that he will talk about the menace during the next ‘Mann Ki Baat’ radio programme.

The Open Forums invites you to talk about the menace of drugs. Share how you feel this menace can be mitigated, what steps can be taken to get youngsters out of this. You can share anecdotes – how you saved children from this menace of drugs or if you have had a personal experience. NGOs working in this sphere should contribute. Your contribution would be a major step in freeing India from the menace of drugs.

आदरणीय प्रधान मंत्री ,जी वंदेमातरम गुटखा तम्बाकू, शराब व अन्य नशे मे प्रयोग आने वाले उत्पाद को आर्थिक कारणो से बन्द नही किया जा सकता है परन्तु 10 गुणा टेक्स जरूर लगाया जाना चाहिये जिससे महंगा होने से यह बच्चो की पहूच से दूर हो जाये, अभी हाल ही मे आपकी सरकार द्वारा सिगरेट के संबन्ध मे लिया गया निर्णय के लिये साधुवाद !

In schools,social services projects should be mandatory every month;students must visit NGOs so they can meet such drug addicts to see the future of drug addiction.A national toll free number should be provided.On which help by Counselor,Name and Address of treatment centers,rehabilitation centers etc.must be provided.For alcoholic person’s jail should not be the punishment because it will turn them into criminals,for them punishment must be social service.Like work for 2 hours daily in an NGO

अगर आज में उन लड़को को अध्यापक के कहने पर उने ऐसे ही छोड़ देता तो शायद वो आज समाज को नुक्सान पंहुचा रहे होते। अपने इस अनुभव के माध्यम से मेरी आप सब से प्रार्थना है की कृपया नशे के शिकार हो रहे बच्चो को उनके हालात पर न छोड़े उने समझाने की कोशिश करे.… आपका एक छोटा सा प्रयास एक सुन्दर समाज का निर्माण करने में सहायक होगा

In Khar- Santacruz West, in Mumbai right next to Bloomingdale School, where a lane has been occupied by slums and there is a lot of drug peddling that happens from there. This has been going on for years; right within an elite suburb, in midst of a school ditsrict. Most local people avoid this lane, the occupants there are almost like a local mafia. Yet, there is no police action or police vigil there. Why? The residents of this lane are also involved in rag picking, scrap sales and thefts.

PM should stress on self discipline as the effective tool to extricate large number of youth falling prey to drugs.PM should tell people & bring a legislation to make drug peddling /distribution a non- bailable offense. This will instill fear &deter those engaged in this heinous and nefarious activity. PM should tell I&B Ministry to bring advertisement similar to tobacco chewing & smoking.to spread ill effects of drugs in all film shows in theaters / TV channels.Policing is not an answer.

Respected sir, I think that in spite of searching the solution to the problem we should think why this problem has arrived?why our youth is going towards drugs.I think the reasons may be failure in carrer,loneliness,not getting properly attended by someone etc.A youth can overcome all this problems if he or she is morally strong.Nowadays morality is just blocked in books,youth is just thinking about himself not about society,parents and other concerned.we should make them good human being.

What I find in all these sort of programmes only allopathy is thought of. I have personnel experience of some of the alternate systems like Homoeopathy , Tibetian and ayurveda. If not anything they provide better life comfort. The various medical boards can be asked to offer their system efficacy and Government take an holistic approach.

Government should start call centre to stop crime (crime stoppers help line in australia) where the complainer don't need to give his/her identity and police suppose to take action when they receive any complaint. Everyone knows the drug mafias but they are afraid for giving identity because police are also involved with drug mafia. A big drug racket is not possible without police's support. But people are not giving information because police does more inquiry of complainer instead of mafias.
