Jammu and Kashmir’s Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, emphasized the need to combat the conspiracy targeting youth with drugs. He urged a collective effort to protect the future of young people from the escalating drug issue in the region. Sinha highlighted a larger scheme aiming to lure the youth into drug abuse, emphasizing the critical situation in Jammu and Kashmir.
Aiming to address the drug problem, Sinha mentioned the ‘Nasha Mukta Bharat Abhiyan’ launched in 2020 under the state’s Chief Minister. Despite continuous efforts by law enforcement, the use of drugs among youth persists, prompting the need for a renewed strategy. Sinha announced a 100-day program and a comprehensive plan to tackle the issue, inviting various stakeholders to join a campaign against drugs at MA Stadium in Jammu on April 11.
Emphasizing the importance of public involvement, Sinha stressed that the fight against drugs is crucial for the youth’s future in Jammu and Kashmir. He called on all residents to actively participate in the campaign, which aims to eliminate drugs from the region and crack down on drug traffickers. Sinha pledged a joint effort by all departments, police, and security forces, urging widespread community engagement to make the mission successful.
