Dear All,
"People first: stop stigma and discrimination, strengthen prevention".
The International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, or World Drug Day, is marked on 26 June every year to strengthen action and cooperation in achieving a world free of drug abuse.Youth populations are the most vulnerable to using drugs and are also more severely affected by substance use disorder in several regions. The menace of drug addiction has spread fast among the youth of India. We pledge that we will keep our self, our family and our loved ones away from drugs and enjoy a hale and hearty life.
