- Keep distance from all kinds of drugs
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that drug free India is the first condition of developed India and drug free youth is the biggest base of developed India. Let us keep away from all kinds of drugs in our daily life, because it harms the body. It is said in the scriptures that man can attain God through body practice. There is infinite energy in our body. Let us all use this power in the right direction and keep moving forward in the direction of achieving the vision of Developed India@2047 by distancing ourselves from drugs. Drug addiction affects everything in our health, punishment, employment, social respect. Home and family are ruined by addiction. The state government is very sensitive to the crimes taking place under the influence of drugs. Rehabilitation opportunities are also being provided to people who are intoxicated. Our body is a temple of clean thoughts. Yuva Shakti Recognize your own strength, distance yourself from drug habits and inspire others to do the same.
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that our history has been very glorious for centuries. This is the culture where great heroes like Indrajit, Mahavirs like Lord Shri Rama, Shri Krishna, Gautama Buddha and Mahavir Swami were born. Our culture inspires the spirit of ‘Live and Live’ with self-restraint. He said that the land of India has always attracted the world for its knowledge and yoga. So let us consider the whole world as one family and work for the welfare and well-being of all.
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav said that through healthy youth, empowered society and prosperous Madhya Pradesh, we have to prove the Amrit Kal Sankalp of developed India. For this, let us all take this pledge that we will not get drunk on ourselves, nor will we let anyone get drunk, and will spread awareness in the society. Appealing to all youths of the region, social organizations, teachers, principals, teachers, doctors, district and police administration and all the volunteers to join this campaign actively and make it a mass movement.
In the program, Sports and Youth Welfare Minister Mr. Sarang said that addiction destroys the entire society. To build a strong and self-reliant India, we have to keep our youth away from drugs. Our government is making many efforts for de-addiction. He appealed to the new generation that we all should resolve to stay away from any type of drug addiction. He said that we should go ahead with the message of drug addiction in every village, every town, every school, every college and every family.
