I teach in a Design School. Over a period of time instances of drug abuse in campus have come to my notice. These incidents range from drug abuse in class to student loosing life due to OD. Institute head says the law of the land is sufficient and institute may not do anything. I found that students do not know the law of the land and therefore the consequences. It should be mandatory for Colleges to educate students of the relevant laws and involve specialized organizations to counsel students

NCERT primary school books should have chapters about ill effects of drug abuse. If the aversion is imbibed in children they will not grow up to be tangled in this menace. Inserting thoughts of Aversion is a psychological technique and this will leave a mark in the subconscious of the child and he will stay away from drugs forever. Moreover, Censor Board should ban movies glorifying drugs from releasing.

The primary cause of taking drugs regularly is depression, which arises from poverty. Tackling poverty will effectively erase this menace. That can be achieved by making sure that each household gets permanent employment, and a decent living wage to fulfill life's necessities: all that is required to keep them out of depression.

Drug peddlers often want to come out of their habit but are unable to. Firstly, because of the shortage of rehab centres, and secondly, they are victimised by the society. The govt. should increasingly concentrate on setting up rehab facilities for convicted drug peddlers, and them use their story of coming out from this dark hell of drugs as inspirational propaganda to further rehabilitate more drug users.

Sir in the era of online trade drug sellers are using the online way to sell illegal drugs .the govt should make an effort to crack down such websites.Moreover in the case of online sale of medicines there is no guarantee on the content, date of expiry,whether the medicine has been tested for its side effects or is banned.On line drug shops should be brought within the purview of medical act so that people can be ensured safe medicines online
