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 ...
1. The first and the most prominent reason for substance abuse or drug abuse is peer pressure. Most of the habits are formed in an early stage in life. So,parents and schools play a greater role in educating the students about drug abuse.
2. Secondly, the people who are involved in providing such substances to people should be dealt severely under law. Any laxity in this regard will encourage them to take this as a shortcut to quick money.
I think there could be several ways to handle it.
(a) Make our youth more concerned about being fit. The drive and the motivation is missing like sports, gym,school and college syllabus should have it as mandatory.
(b) Severe punishment for the person be it a student or anyone who so ever is found guilty. Something very strict which is not having option for bail out.
(c) Public rallies by famous personalities like PM himself or other famous personaloties of India with T-shirts, TV adv. Thanks
नशे का एक पहलू जमीन अधिग्रहण से भी जुड़ा हुआ है। ज्यादातर किसान अधिग्रहण के बदले मिली धन के एक बड़े हिस्से को नशे में बर्बाद कर रहे हैं। खासतौर से यूपी में। सरकार चाहे तो अध्ययन करा ले कि जमीन अधिग्रहण की राशि मिलने के बाद वहां नशाखोरी बढ़ जाती है। इसके लिए जरूरी है कि किसान को काम मिले, और उसे वित्तीय सक्षरता दी जाए।
I think that Central/state Gov's are having wide range of information/ data about this menace in India. It knows the adverse impact on the society. Selling drugs by one individual causes spoiling lives of many. Then is it necessary to tolerate such person.Death penalty is solution if it is proved. Timely rewarding punishment will have impact on crimes. I feel that it is a crime against humanity. If we are serious in implementing such actions there is no need to make so much discussions.
नसे के शिकार ज्यादातर गांव के लोग होते है।
मई भी गाव में रहता हु और देखता हु की बच्चे लगभग 15 की उम्र में ही नासा करना चालू करदेते है।वे गुटका से सुरुवात करते है और वो बहुत जल्द सराब तक पहुच जाते है।
मेरा सुझाव ये है की हैम जानते है की गुटका खाने से कॅन्सर सराब पिने से किडनी ख़राब या फिर सिगरेट से फेफ़ङे ख़राब हो जाते है तो हम क्यों नहीं नसा करने के सामानों पर रोक लगा देते और सुरक्षित रहते।अतः नसा वाली वस्तूओ पर रोक लगनी चाहिए जैसे गुटखा ।सिगरेट।सराब आदि।
धन्यवाद
When there is a direct proof of involvement of Drug Trafficker why the Police Force fail to catch and if they catch then why they fail to prove the same in court of law. That is, Police force should not handle the Drug Trafficking case, instead military should be empowered with sufficient legal knowledge to deal with the offender and only death penalty should be imposed. Otherwise this problem will be there all the time to come and no suggestion can help to check the menace.
Respected Sir,
As you know that manay sections of the society are affected by this evil. and once one is affected by this then it is very difficult to stop him. Educaion is the best way to stop this. If people are made responisble citizen then this menance can be control. The promotion of any type of drug usage must be banned at every aspects.
Tackling drug menace is a multi-dimensional issue. Here, the focus is on the dimension of-SUPPLY of drugs with a view to contain it. (i) A special Police Unit should be set-up to focus on high schools, colleges (esp. hostels). (ii) Secondly, steps be initiated to curb online sale of drugs. (iii) Thirdly, steps be devised to invert the profit-making in drugs’ sale. These steps need to be in conjunction with other steps at ‘reeducating’ students.
On drugs i) what works ii) what doesn't work vis-à-vis DEMAND merits attention. Preaching & advising generally don't work as in case of cigarettes. At psychological level what works is-substituting one habit by another. An affected segment of population is-those in teens & early 20s. Therefore, from Class VI onwards, through videos, texts, role plays, etc. children need to be ‘reeducated’ well in time. Secondly, extra-curricular activities that provide ‘thrill’ (soc. acceptable) be introduced.
अपनी स्नातक की पढ़ाई के दौरान चार वर्षों में मैंने सैंकड़ों एेसे विद्यार्थी देखे जो किसी न किसी तरह के नशे की लत के शिकार थे। तकनीकी रूप से ऐसा कोई तरीका नहीं था कि इस समस्या से निजात मिल सके। द्वितीय वर्ष में मैं जयपुर में ही कार्यरत हरे कृष्णा मूवमेंट ngo के संपर्क में आया। मैंने पाया कि काफी संख्या में छात्र वहां आने के कुछ ही दिनों में इन लतों पर काबू पा लेते थे।
कारण भी स्पष्ट था। दरअसल बेहतर विकल्प पाकर ही व्यक्ति किसी प्रिय वस्तु को त्याग सकता है और आध्यात्म का अल्प मात्र भी अगर मनुष्य में ठीक प्रकार से सिंचित किया जाए तो वह व्यक्ति नशे के विकल्प को तुच्छ मान लेता है। और इसका प्रभाव अन्य उपायों के समान अल्पकालिक नहीं होता बल्कि जीवन पर्यंत रहता है।
