To raise awareness about the dangers of drug abuse and promote a healthy, drug-free lifestyle, Director General of Police (DGP) Ashok Tewari on Monday addressed students at the Centre of Excellence, Government Post Graduate College, Sanjauli, urging them to become “anti-chitta volunteers.”
Speaking at a special lecture on drug awareness, the DGP encouraged students to spread the message of a drug-free life within their families, among friends and in the wider community, thereby safeguarding the younger generation from the scourge of narcotics.
Alerting students to the devastating and deep-rooted consequences of drug abuse, Tewari said it is not merely a bad habit but a deadly trap that robs young people of their dreams, health and family happiness.
He called upon the youth to channel their energy in a positive direction, reminding them that success and respect are earned through discipline and determination. “Drugs make you weak, but determination and discipline can make you invincible,” he said.
