Punjab's Anti-Drug Campaign Empowers Women in Recovery

Punjab's Anti-Drug Campaign Empowers Women in Recovery

The Punjab Government in India has started a campaign called Yudh Nashean Virudh to help people stop using drugs.

They say that women, like mothers, wives, and sisters, are very important in this campaign.

These women help their family members who are addicted to drugs by encouraging them to get treatment and supporting them during recovery.

The government has made it easier for families to get counselling and rehabilitation services.

They also say that when families work together, it helps people recover better.

Two women, Ragini Kaur and Balwinder Kaur, shared their stories about how they helped their husbands and other family members overcome drug addiction.

The government believes that this campaign is successful because it combines their support with the efforts of the community and families.
