A large number of teenagers and young adults are falling into the deadly trap of drugs. Peer pressure, stress, unemployment and lack of awareness are some of the major reasons behind this growing problem. Drug addiction not only ruins individual lives but also affects families and the future of our society.
It is high time that strict action is taken against drug suppliers and awareness campaigns are launched in schools, colleges and on public platforms to discourage drug abuse. Parents and teachers must play a proactive role in identifying early signs and guiding young people towards a healthy and purposeful life.
