Feedback
Dear Editor,
I just loved reading the article ‘The joy that is Eid’ by SG (28 March issue) on Eid preparations! It really brought back so many happy memories—especially the part about sheer khurma and chasing after eidi (no matter how old we are!). The way the writer described chaand raat made me feel like I was right there, smelling the mehndi and hearing the buzz in the markets. I also liked how you reminded everyone that Eid isn’t just about new clothes and food but about family, love, and gratitude. That really hit home.
I would like to suggest one thing, though: it would have been even more exciting if SG had included a few fun personal anecdotes or quotes from different family members. Maybe even a little peek into Eid mornings in other countries? All in all, it was a good read. Keep them coming!

Drug addiction
Dear Editor,
Drug addiction is a pervasive and destructive problem in our society, wreaking havoc on the lives of our youth. The negative effects of this issue are far-reaching, with both boys and girls increasingly falling prey to the dangers of substance abuse. The consequences of drug addiction are dire, often leading individuals down a path of crime and violence. Many are coerced into joining gangs and engaging in illicit activities to support their habit. Furthermore, when addicts are unable to obtain their desired substances, they sometimes resort to theft and property crimes to fund their addiction.
It is imperative that we take collective action to address this issue. As a society, we must acknowledge our responsibility to protect our children and support those struggling with addiction. Parents, in particular, must be vigilant and proactive in monitoring their children’s activities and behaviors. To combat the scourge of drug addiction, we must also provide support and resources for those struggling with substance abuse. Rehabilitation centres offer a vital lifeline for individuals seeking to overcome their addiction and rebuild their lives.
By working together, we can create a safer, healthier, and more supportive environment for all members of our community. It is our collective duty to address the issue of drug addiction and ensure that our youth are protected from its devastating effects.
