The Minister opined that in the past, the scourge of drug abuse used to affect only well-to-do households in the heart of Imphal city.

However, in the present climate, abuse of psychoactive substances has crossed all barriers of age, economic status etc and affected everyone equally.

He also appealed to the youth to avoid succumbing to the evil of drug abuse and added that the State administration had made efforts to spread awareness in this regard through many activities across the schools in Manipur.

Urging the people to become health conscious and maintain a healthy lifestyle, he called for their support in building a drug-free society.

In the technical session, counsellors of Anouba Mangal De-addiction Centre, Rameshchandra, Brajeshwari and Project Coordinator Kishorchand educated the gathering on the topics, "Drugs & causative factors of drug abuse", "Harmful consequences of drug abuse & its preventive measures" and "Current scenario of drug abuse in Manipur" .
