Multi-pronged action is called for curbing this hydra-headed menace of drug-abuse. It has to be a combination of legal, regulatory, and academic measures. (1) First of all, create awareness through mass media campaign among the victims, prospective victims about ill-effects of drug consumption. (2) Promote value-education at all levels. (3) Initiate stringent action against all those involved in drug-peddling, sale and distribution.

Dear Modi Ji, I think the root of many problems in India is its ever increasing population. No matter how much the output has increased over the years, population growth has always seems to outstrip it. More population means you have to cater more to their requirements (housing, food, etc). Since land is limited, it can be either used for farming or constructing houses. I request you to please address this issue at an appropriate time. Thank You, Your Follower

Sir, we can come under the influence of drugs if it is readily available. So we have to catch the paddlers and the people who makes the drugs available.

Family time for Business Community: When ever there is a holiday people go for shopping, entertainment, fun, food and joy. But no one has ever though about the traders/ shop owners / shopkeppers who are working almost whole of week to make the customers happy. As competition increases shopowners are getting more flexible and trying to open for 24x7, but this inturn is affecting there social life, family time, there is money but no time for caring for the family. There should be fixed time.

Sir, it is high time when we take some strong initiatives for women security. I feel this is one area which require immediate action. Cases like 'Cab driver raping a girl in delhi' not only create a sense of fear among all the girls but also question the identity of India in the world. Why aren't women feel safe; what steps should we take to improve this situation; should be implement stronger laws, policies & initiatives. Sir, please take some strong steps to stop crime against women.Please!

There should be coveted agents who live among drug addicts as a normal person and unearth drug links among youth. We have to think like drug vendor to stop drug abuse.
