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.

Education has suffered worst at the hands of the various Govts both central and state. Sanskrit was introduced by the MOE at a very wrong time. Who is coaching the Hon'ble Minster Irani?? Kindly ensure proper decisions are taken without being very fanatical about the education.That will add to the credibility and would serve the purpose.Haste makes waste.

PM may say that he was under the impression that drug was not a serious problem but when he went in depth to study he came to know about the magnitude and the threat it poses.Hemay refer to areas in which it is assuming serious problem.He may explain how the govt plans to tackle the issue.The menace is indicative of falling values and parents not exercising proper oversight on their wards.it is better to take preventive action instead of curing later.he may also refer to opium wars in China duri

Govt. should add at least SURYANAMASKAR to everyday routine of school education,promote proper rehabilitation and counselling program,ensure full implementation of laws against drug abuse and try to create stress free professional and educational environment.SURYANAMASKAR because it will help in creating a spiritual and virtuous environment.According to me children who grow in such environment are least attracted towards drugs.

Sir I hve seen small kids around the railway stations taking drugs in an indirect way from dendrites.In our area particularly the adhesive product "Dendrite"is peculiarly used as a drug.My views are firsly if we can change the compostion of such products like Dendrite.Second the most important is diverting kids & youth.While the youth can be diverted through employment,kids through education.Opening of night schools at Railway stations.Youth will get employed & children education.

Respected Sir, Pl ban the consumption of Alcohol in India which is successfully implemented in Gujrat already. If Gujrat can implement it why not other states? Ban will save billions of Rupees spent on 'NASHA' and also on medicines. Rajiv Nagare, Thane

Flood the streets with decoys and buy up all the supplies from the local peddlers. Then go after the foreign nationals who enter the country on student visa and sell drugs so openly (eg. Select City Walk Mall at Saket in Delhi, for instance. Do it now if you're really serious about it.

Pain killer tablets are very fangerous for kidney deseas. It directly effect kidneys. My mother was death due to painkillers given by doctor for the deases of rumatoid arthrites. Mostly people take pain killer in headach, dental pain, etc instead of find cause for this diseas. It generally due to infection in tooth and abdomen. Pl say peaple dont use drugs over limit.
