In a concerted effort to address the escalating global concern of drug addiction, the Haryana Government is addressing drug addiction in a comprehensive manner through three multifaceted initiatives: raising public awareness, rescuing and rehabilitating youth trapped in the cycle of addiction and actively dismantling the drug supply chain. This was stated by the Chief Minister Sh. Manohar Lal while speaking as chief guest at the 11th annual function of Gyan Mansarovar of Prajapita Brahma Kumari Ishwariya Vishwavidyalaya in Panipat today.
On this occasion, the Chief Minister also launched the Drug-Free Haryana campaign as part of the larger Drug-Free India Campaign and flagged off the Drug-Free Campaign Awareness Bus. Apart from laying the foundation stone of Manmohini Bhawan being built at a cost of about Rs 3 crore in Gyan Mansarovar, he also inaugurated Dadi Chandramani Universal Peace Auditorium established at a cost of about Rs 3 crore in Gyan Mansarovar. Addressing the people, the Chief Minister affirmed the government's strict actions against individuals involved in drug trade and anti-national activities. Recognizing the link between terrorist organizations and the drug trade, he said that the provision of stringent penalties for such illicit collaborations has already been made by the government.
