The secret lies in our age old customs. Encourage rural self sustaining lifestyle both as training and therapy and use the opportunity to train in areas of Animal Husbandry, Entrepreneurship, Hospitality and Care

Youth is not able to decide what is right for him. It means education system is defective. Good techers r required . Neither school nor home is capable to direct them.so efficient , honest volunteers can solve this .child should be the responsibility of society to inculcate good habits .parents want to live their life. So upbringing of child is not their cup of tea .foreign system of education can solve the every problem frm root.. moral values can be inculcated only in childhood.startfrm scratch

Recruit a committed set of volunteers Attack the distribution of Drugs and people caught placing the drugs should get Exemplary & Punishment. Get corporate sponsorship for releasing Advertisements in National Media about NOT DOING DRUGS. GET endorsements from National icons in the media release and let that be advertised Let NO politician or his party interfere in the Anti Drug Campaign so that Drug peddler's punishments get good media coverage. Reward Individuals or groups or even State

Sir! I have following suggestions which can be implemented easily, 1 No druggist/ chemist will sell without proper prescriptions as many drugs are easily available in these stores. 2 Our borders are highly porous and authorities supposed to control drug trafficing are involved in malafide practices. Therefore honest officers with integrity should be posted there. More precisely in INDO-PAK BORDER &I8NDO BANGLADESH BORDER,INDO NEPAL BORDER, INDO BURMA BORDER. All these borders are porus .

start anti drugs campaign from campuses. strictly prohibit glorifying drug use in media...reduce corruption in anti-drug force in police by giving them incentive for each successful operation in stopping drug trafficking and give them sufficient protection for underworld threats.

Systematic awareness program mes to be taken up for telecast on all TV Channels during 6.00 PM to 10.00 PM showing ill-effects of Drugs for maximum viewing is recommended. Moreover periodic nationwide awareness camps in all private & public school curriculum to be taken up by experts in this field starting from class 6 onward would bear fruitful results.

A TOTAL BAN ON CIGERRATTES, DRUGS etc. is required. The govt. can start campaigns to fight drug abuse. making parents and youngsters aware of the consequences. surely the main reason is easy availability. Setting up HELPING GROUPS for those already involved in the drug abuse. MAKING STUDENTS AWARE OF THE SIDE-EFFECTS BY TEACHING ABOUT DRUG ABUSE (NOT AS A SUBJECT) BUT AS A PART OF LIFESKILLS FROM DAY 1 IN SCHOOLS.
