Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday called upon professors and educational institutions across the country to play a proactive role in the fight against substance abuse, urging them to go beyond academics and educate students about the dangers of drug addiction. Addressing the launch of the ‘Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan’, a 100-week nationwide campaign against substance abuse, the Prime Minister appealed to teachers to transform colleges and universities into centres of awareness and prevention. “I also want to make an appeal to our professors in colleges and universities. Along with teaching the course, please also discuss the dangers of drugs with your students. Launch a movement against addiction on your campus. Your efforts can bring big results,” Modi said.
