Prime Minister Modi has launched a national campaign aimed at preventing drug abuse among youth, warning that substance abuse can lead to the deterioration of family and professional lives. Speaking in a virtual address, Modi urged families not to conceal any addiction within their ranks, emphasizing the need for open communication and seeking professional help.
He described youth who fight against addiction as "real warriors," rather than weak individuals, and called for society to respect those who overcome their drug problems. The campaign, titled 'Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan', will run for the next 100 weeks and includes activities such as art, culture, sports, meditation, and spirituality to spread the message of de-addiction.
The PM also highlighted the importance of a strong support system provided by society, alongside the benefits of yoga and meditation, in maintaining physical and mental fitness among the youth. As the nation aims to become 'Viksit Bharat', or developed India, preventing drug abuse among its youth is a crucial aspect of this goal.
