Modi Commends 'Drugs Free Mumbai' Campaign Launch
Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised a new program called 'Drugs Free Mumbai' that aims to stop people from using drugs.
The program was started by Maharashtra's Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at a big hall in Mumbai.
A cabinet minister named Mangal Prabhat Lodha will help run the program and make sure schools and colleges have committees to talk about drugs.
The plan asks everyone—parents, teachers, and neighbors—to help stop drug sales and to report any suspicious activity.
The campaign will use a slogan, "Say No to Drugs, Say Yes to Life," to remind kids to choose healthy choices.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the 'Drugs Free Mumbai' campaign as a step toward a drug‑free society for youth.
The campaign was inaugurated by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis at the NSCI Dome, Worli, with key officials present.
Cabinet Minister Mangal Prabhat Lodha will chair a high‑level committee to oversee drug de‑addiction awareness across schools and colleges.
The initiative encourages community participation, reporting of drug sales, and offers rewards for informants.
