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.

1. Decriminalise drug use for first offence but penalise compoundingy for subsequent offences; 2. Increase penalties for drug trade at all levels; 3. Improve de-addiction centre coverage with increased therapeutics and counseling; 4. Make it mandatory for addicts to attend de-addiction centres (or else jail); 5.

find out the suppliers of drugs and take strict and Immediate action against them and also do live telecast of their punishment on the news channels. roam them around the capital without clothes and then fire them most of the drugs suppliers are from northern states of india so all the check post officers should be honest and loyal for their country,donot give posting to the corrupted officers and also officers must be suspended if any crime found near their check post,provide few examples.

Hon PM, the drug menace is not an easy one to solve. The failure of the "war on drugs" in the US is a clear indicator. https://www.drugpolicy.org/drug-war-statistics Drugs in India, especially Punjab is being routed from Afghanistan (which is at a peak poppy production today). http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/the-roots-of-drug-addiction-that-plagues-punjab/1/364674.html I think India needs to tackle this differently, starting by teaching kids in elementary school.

आदरणीय प्रधानमंत्री जी, मेरा आपसे विनम्र अनुरोध है कि 'मन की बात' के माध्यम से आप उन महिलाओ और परिवारों के विषय में जरूर बात करें जहां महिलाएं दूसरे घरों में सफाई, बर्तन आदि धो कर अपने घर खर्च को चलाने और अपने बच्चों को पढ़ाने के लिए प्रयास कर रहीं हैं, वहीं उन्हीं परिवारों के पुरुष नशे की लत के शिकार होने के कारण उन महिलाओं की गाढ़ी और खून पसीने की कमाई को शराब और अन्य नशे में व्यर्थ कर देते हैं व उनको और उनके बच्चों को शारीरिक एवं मानसिक प्रतारणा भी देते हैं। कृप्या आप इस विषय को अवश्य उठाएँ ।

My dear PM, You are looked up on as perhaps we Indians' only chance out of all ' the bad' here. So, please comply with our expectations; and you do to a great extent. About the drug menace: - it does not arise all on a sudden. I will say; even the government has a great role in making a person seek the drug. Frustrations drive a man to seek drug. Until recently, India was bathing in corruption. This, in the long run, makes the youth hopeless and.....

माननीय मोदी जी नमस्कार , नशे को रोकने के कुछ सुझाव मैं भी देना चाहता हूँ (१) हर पाठ्य पुस्तक के पहले पन्ने पर नशे के नुक़सान फ़ोटो सहित छपवाने से बालक (युवा) रोज़ एक बार देखेगा और इसके दुष्परिणाम से अवगत होगा । (२) रात में होने वाली युवा पार्टियों पर पुलिस और अभिवाहक नज़र रखे । (३)हर बार के अंदर और बाहर नशे के परिणाम का बोर्ड अनिवार्य हो ।

BSF and police officers have storng bond to make available in borders areas. Strong Sikh people can not make resistant by their religion and political will shown by leaders. We have make people awareness of Bhart Darshan between Amritsar and Varanasi. NRI people lust of money what their children have no mindset toward country. We have to make awareness all the by all platforms and intuitions. Thanks quoting such a systems failure which spoil our country like black money
