Hoshiarpur: To make the Punjab government's campaign "War Against Drugs" a success in eradicating drug abuse in the state, students, teachers, and people associated with literature and art are making commendable contributions. As a result, the Punjab government will succeed in creating a healthy environment for students and youth in the state.
These views were expressed by Deputy Commissioner Hoshiarpur, Ms. Ashika Jain, IAS, while launching the Punjabi awareness song against drug abuse, 'Yudh Nashon Ke Virudh Chala...' (War Against Drugs), written by Lecturer Sukhdev Singh (music and vocals) and Varinder Singh Nimana (writer and vocals). Deputy Commissioner Ashika Jain said that drug addiction severely affects a person's physical and mental health, which is why it is always necessary to create awareness among students and youth about this terrible evil.
She said that it is important to tell children through studies, sports, and fine arts that a wise person should not resort to drugs to fulfill their dreams in life, but should instead strive to achieve their goals through hard work and a positive attitude.
She appreciated the awareness song 'Yudh Nashon Ke Virudh Chala...', prepared by the Education Department Hoshiarpur in collaboration with the district administration to create awareness against drug abuse, and said that this effort will prove helpful in the efforts being made to protect school and college students from drugs.
On this occasion, ADC (Development) Vikas Kumar IAS, ADC (General) Amarbir Kaur Bhullar, Assistant Commissioner Parmpreet Singh, and various other senior officers of the Hoshiarpur administration were also present.
