Anti Drug Committee
National Anti-Drug Addiction Day is observed every year on 2nd October. The aim of the day is to make India free from drug and to preserve the talent. Father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi condemned the use of drugs. Drug addiction leads to chronic brain diseases. Drugs are one of the greatest evils for our society. It not only affects the individual but also the society. It causes loss of ability to make rational decisions and takes precedence over everything else – career, family, loved ones, friends and even civic sense. Most people start to take drugs for experiment, fun and curiosity while some succumb to peer-pressure. Some people misuse life saving medicines as drugs.
