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.

Adarniya Modi Ji, We have to start "Nasha Unmoolan mission", like Swach Bharat Abhiyan" at National level. We have to encourage Samajik Santha to come forward and participate in this mission, to give the message about its bad effects in the societies.

Respected sir, This is Mihir Upadhyay. I am the pharmacist and I am very well aware about the drug abuse and its consequences. Many of my friends are working on chemist shops and I feel proud on them that they are not selling the drugs (the persons are addicted to consume as a part of Addiction) without any kind of official prescription. But sir, still many chemist shop are likely giving such medicines without any kind of prescription. I like to convey the msg to the youth that Please stop this

Usually drug menace occurs in youngsters due to idleness/weak mentality. Government should undertake activities to make youths physically active, like compulsory martial arts training, or yoga levels, or military training for youths. Encourage youths in joining these plans by giving them relief in percentage in government jobs, colleges and other government schemes.

Dear sir, A new amendment is being proposed to the marriage bill. This if done in the same lines as UPA, will be highly gender biased will mean that men suffer greatly. This way more and more men will be led to drugs. Sir, please request you to remove the unconstitutional sections in the amendments in case it is re introduced to ensure men are not under stress due to this and they don't embrace drugs.

Dear Modi sir, Now a days married men are becoming increasingly tilted towards consuming drugs. Sir, the problem is more serious than we think. Gender biased laws are being misused by many women to manipulate their husbands. This leads to high depression and mental tensions. On top if a man has to run after fighting fake dowry/maintenance/DV cases, it has a detrimental effect on that person. Many such people are running after drugs to forget the pain. We need to scrap gender biased laws.

Respected Sir, Your initiative to reach out to the youth is the biggest step in this direction. Steps to make the youth feel that they are wanted in the nation building, that they are playing an important role in deciding the future of the nation will make the youth feel that lead worthwhile lives. Volunteers among them to guide and rehabilitate addicts will be a good reachout in this direction. The basic idea is to make them feel that they are loved and wanted and they have a duty

Dear Modi Sir, My suggestion is that like you started Swach Bharat abhiyaan, you can start an awareness among people and society to work against these drug menance because the main reason behind increasing drug menance is carelessness of parents, irresponsible society, our police, customs and few other authorities. So an awareness among the public and an private emergency number for complaining about those crimes, few institutes to treat drug addicts can help us to overcome this problem.
