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.

Rehabilitation..is always better done by NGO's ...it needs a lot of sepcial skills, and patience to undertake rehabilitaion work; over time get those who benefit from such rehab to access others suffering from drug abuse to give them confidence that there is LIFE and that too a rich life after Rehab;a media campaign over 3 to 5 years will be the critical route to initiate preventive measures; we need to sustain such campaigns...if we are keen to sustain results ...

Awareness campaign should be introduced from standard 10th with clear messaging on triggers leading towards drugs, bad effects on health, finance and family. Introduce an anonymous helpline to report drug selling and usage to increase and help vigilance. This will make people come forward to report suspicious scenarios. Also introduce basic cheap tests in educational institutes to identify drug abuse cases for rehabilitation and make these tests a routine for each semester.

First the NDPS list of banned drugs should be updated more frequently and kept up-to-date with international banned list. There are few drugs which are openly and available and not yet added on the banned list which makes local administration helpless to act. Secondly, licenses of clubs, discotheques etc should be cancelled if any banned substances are found from their premises after thorough investigation.

PM JD Yojna can be made more advantageousness if Central Govt could take control of BOCW cess from State Govts and workers can be benefited by way of direct transfer of regular benifit to labours. Re-draft BOCW/PF acts is reqd and labours should be facilitated by minimising tedious formality of obtaining grant/registration etc in association with various organisation/dept of respective work area.Till adoption by Central Govt for BOCW act, intensive monitoring of BOCW fund is the need of time.

Contd...The most agonising factor in the episode of drug menace is the pace and the progressive way in which the youth in several States and several parts of our country including Punjab, and not excluding the JALANDHAR. DISTT., is falling prey to the drug menace. The youth are the future of this country, and, by taking to drugs, the future of the youth, their families, and, in the wider perspective, the future of this great Nation is JEOPARDIZED. HENCE, NEED FOR CAUTION.
