As the world gears up to commemorate the International Day against Drug Abuse & Illicit Trafficking on 26th Jun, 2016, profound & renowned industrialist & philanthropist Aneel Murarka elaborated on the significance of this day. Apart from the many causes that Aneel has championed for the welfare of the youth which include educating short films on anti – smoking, anti – suicide and the hazards of abusive language amongst the youth, he speaks about his zealous approach towards bringing a change in the society with regards to the issue of drug abuse, especially amongst the youth who he believes are the future torch bearers of our nation.
That apart he has been relentlessly, selflessly & whole heartedly working towards the upliftment & betterment of the youth & against curbing the menace of drug addiction in the society. He avers, “This day serves as a reminder to the global community in moving towards a society that deals with drug use from a health – centric & human rights approach.”
Aneel Murarka went ahead to highlight the importance of engaging & partnering with the drug using community averring, “The Government, law & police alone cannot take steps to control this menace. Their efforts need to be supported and matched by the concerted efforts from each & every individual in society by means of activities that promotes awareness, and I’m striving towards working & building awareness amongst the youth & people which I believe can help reduce the stigma & the discrimination of drug users and most importantly help them in their reintegration into society.”
