JAMMU, May 12: Under the guidance of the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, an inspiring awareness march was organized today in the Nagrota Assembly Constituency as part of the 100-day public awareness campaign under the “Drug-Free Jammu & Kashmir Campaign.” The event was organized by Shri Kailakh Jyotish avim Vedic Sansthan Trust.
The awareness march commenced from Jandiyal Chowk and concluded at RMG International School, Jandiyal, Jammu. A large number of youths, students, social organizations, administrative officials, teachers, and local residents participated in the march.
Mahant Baba Yashpal of Baba Ballo Ji Devsthan Mathwar and Sanjeev Verma, Chief Electoral Officer, Jammu & Kashmir, jointly flagged off the march.
The entire area echoed with powerful slogans such as “Quit Drugs – Embrace Life” and “Save Youth – Save the Future.” Carrying awareness placards and banners, the youth conveyed the message that drug addiction destroys not only individuals but also families, society, and the future of the nation.
Mahant Baba Yashpal, in his inspiring address, stated that youth power is the greatest strength of any nation. He urged the youth to adopt the path of values, education, spirituality, and national service in order to become agents of positive social change.
Sanjeev Verma stated that drug abuse has become a serious social and moral challenge facing society today. He emphasized that the Government’s anti-drug campaign must be transformed into a people’s movement so that every family and every young person becomes a part of this mission.
Addressing the gathering, Mahant Rohit Shastri from Shri Kailakh Jyotish avim Vedic Sansthan Trust said, “This is not merely a campaign against drugs, but a great mission to save society and future generations. Until every citizen actively participates in this fight, the dream of a drug-free India will remain incomplete.”
