Continuation of comments of 11 November. To successfully mitigate the menace of drugs from the fibre of our society, it is of paramount importance that we first go all-about for mitigating the reasons which sereve as breeding ground for those who take to drugs who do. For the grown-ups who have left several years past in their life there can be sundry and secondary issues they may be faced with, to avoid which THEY TRY TO SEEK SOLA CE BY JUMPING TO 'ANOTHER WORLD', as they believe throough drugs

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.

Dear Sir,With respectfully I beg to draw your kind attention regarding agriculture sector which has always remained neglected by successive governments since independence. Though, the rate of inflation keeps on shrilling always, the formers feel to get any benefits. I have few suggesion to make in this regards. 1. We should try to reduce the cost of production for the formers by taking certain concrete steps like reduring the cost of inputs like seeds, fertilizer and pestisides etc. It will n

Hello Sir, I have noticed one thing these days. There are road side vendors such as tea stall , puncture shops, etc. who clean their premise on a daily basis ,usually in the morning. After doing that they pile up everything and set that to fire. They don't know what harmful effects it create to the surroundings. Many times I have personally stopped them from doing this. They burn plastic bags, small rubber pieces etc. I want you to convey this message to them so that it can be stopped. Thanku

नशा ऐसी बीमारी है जो हमें,हमारे समाज को ,हमारे देश को तेजी से निगलते जा रहा है. हर देश की युवा शक्ति ही उस देश की सबसे बड़ी शक्ति होती है. और आखिर अपना भारत तो युवा देश कहलाया जाता है. युवाशक्ति ही भारत का भविष्य है फिर क्यों देश का भविष्य लिखने वाले युवा अपने हातोंमे सिगरेट लेकर खुद का और भारत का भविष्य अँधेरे की ओर ले जा रहे है. और भविष्य लिखने के लिए हमें सिगरेट नहीं कलम की जरुरत है. मद्यपान करके नाकि सिर्फ आँखों के सामने अँधेरा होता है पर पूरा भविष्य ही अँधेरे में चला जाता है.

1. Drug menace can be tackled only by strict action against the drug mafia. NCB,police and other enforcement authorities should be strengthened and be given enough functional autonomy to take action against the drug mafia. An awareness campaign should be undertaken across the nation and to all sections of society 2. Safety for women - steps to be taken 3. U turn by the govt: this must be addressed to clear the air 4. min gov max governance: this must be explained in the wake of cabinet expansion
