As part of the ongoing campaign, a series of awareness and outreach programmes are being organised in educational institutions and public spaces involving active participation of students, teachers, officials and community members. Various departments including Education, Health, Social Welfare, Police, Youth Services & Sports and other stakeholder agencies are jointly conducting awareness drives to sensitise youth about the harmful effects of substance abuse.
In continuation of the campaign activities, essay competition and debate programmes were today conducted at Government Higher Secondary School (GHSS) Budgam under the National Mental Health & Behaviour Awareness (NMBA) programme.
