Expressing serious concern over youth getting addicted to drugs, Chief Justice of India NV Ramana on Sunday urged them to disassociate themselves from substance abuse.

Addressing the 18th annual convocation of the NALSAR University, Hyderabad, CJI Ramana said, “Much water has flowed in Krishna and Godavari since my graduation four decades ago. We have seen unthinkable advances in every sphere of our lives and learning. Unfortunately, new vices have also made their way into the lives of the youth.”

He said, “I am alarmed at the reports of increased number of youth falling prey to intoxicants. I urge them to disassociate themselves from substance abuse. Your mental and physical health is in your hands.”

Maintaining that students can’t afford to be disillusioned, he said, “It’s imperative for you to be a part of current debates. Don’t stop at just raising questions. Also ask yourself what the remedy can be. Being the future of the nation, you must have a clear vision.” — TNS
