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.

I would suggest two short points :1.To include schools and colleges and conducting common workshop in all small towns and cities,atleast once in 3 months,in which even police,health oficers and Ngos can participate.2)Taking steps to make them non available.Even like cigarettes,gutkas and pan masalas should not be available in 1re,5rs,10 rs sachets,they should be made available only with higher quantity (200 gms or more),making it dificult to carry and store.

My suggestions are:: 1. How ragging taken seriously by the management of education institutions, likewise actions and coordination at that level. 2. Introducing the subject or a module ( or a chapter) describing the effects of drug addictions. 3.Repeated telecast of a small documentary for anti-drugism at all channels, similar thing that has been doing for tobacco,gutka etc.

We belong to poor country where we can not do many things in spite of our great desire due to lack of funds or money. However, getting away from drugs or saying no to drugs do not require any expenditure. On contrary, if we say no to drugs , we will be able to save lot of money to fulfil our desire. In fact we will improve our health which will inspire us to enjoy the life which almighty God have given to us and also acquire wealth. The wealthy person should also say no to drugs to enjoy fruits

Namasthe, We have to create awareness about the danger of drugs by educating the young students in school by conducting awareness programmes periodically by qualified people through direct interaction with students, parents and teachers. Every school should have a Counsellor (may be a teacher from the school itself) appointed for this purpose. He/She should have good inter-personal skills and should be trained to handle these issues and also to identify vulnerable students. Thanks.

Namaste Sir, Drug addiction is a dangerous by all means. The bio-chemical in the brain and other vital organs of drug addicts changes and we find those persons completely changed by behaviour and other manners. The basic control is required to be placed at source of production & availability. Normally Government puts controls by monitoring at user level. The Government should monitor the controls at production and distributor level and put control by enacting strict acts and early punishment.

sir we have to stop manufacturing of drugs on our land. secondly, we should immediately stop giving new licenses to open new outlets of liquor and all. liquor sale should be stopped in csd's of defence forces. of course we will lose significant revenues, but it will save our expediture on law and order, hospitals and research centres also.
