Samaira’s nomination was announced by UT Adviser Dharam Pal in presence of Secretary Social Welfare, Women & Child Development Nitika Pawar and Director Social Welfare, Women & Child Development Palika Arora.

The Department of Social Welfare, Women & Child Development, the nodal department to implement the campaign, has adopted a multi-pronged approach to deal with the menace of drug abuse among the citizens. The campaign has been actively working to make Chandigarh a drug-free city. Target campaigns have been initiated across traditional and modern platforms, including on-ground activities in schools, colleges and public places, as well as across social media platforms.

Samaira, an actress and a famous author, thanked the Adviser for giving her the opportunity. She has authored a novel, “Heaven in a hell”, which is based on drug de-addiction. Samaira said she will try to bring a change for this novel cause.
