Chandigarh, April 11 – Haryana Chief Minister, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini said that making Haryana drug-free is a part of the commitment to realize Prime Minister, Sh. Narendra Modi’s vision of a ‘Swachh Bharat, Swasth Bharat aur Sashakt Bharat’. To achieve this, not only the government but also youth, parents, and social organizations must come together and fight against drug abuse, said Sh. Nayab Singh Saini. With this very goal in mind, the Drug-Free Haryana Cyclothon 2.0 is moving forward with the resolve to protect every household and family from the menace of drugs and make the entire state drug-free, said Sh. Nayab Singh Saini. The Chief Minister was addressing the gathering while flagging off the Drug-Free Haryana Cyclothon 2.0 in Faridabad on friday. He also waved to the cyclists, boosting their morale and enthusiasm.
He said that the cyclothon is progressing with a meaningful message, and the enthusiasm among the youth in every village and city is clear proof that this campaign is playing a significant role in spreading awareness about staying away from drugs. The Chief Minister said that today, as we move forward with the resolution of Viksit Haryana – Viksit Bharat (Developed Haryana – Developed India), we must confront every situation that holds society back. He said that drug is such an evil that not only destroys an individual but also weakens the entire family. It is a social, economic, and psychological problem. Substance abuse leads our youth toward darkness, and to eliminate this darkness the government has launched this awareness campaign, said Sh. Nayab Singh Saini. He expressed hope that this cyclothon will prove successful in realizing the dream and commitment of Drug-Free Haryana – Humara Sapna Humara Sankalp, and in creating awareness among the people of the state, especially the youth, against drug abuse.
Sh. Nayab Singh Saini said that the Cyclothon was flagged off from Hisar on April 5. The Cyclothon has since passed through Bhiwani, Charkhi Dadri, Narnaul, Rewari, and Palwal, and reached Faridabad today. From here, it will proceed to Gurugram. By April 27, this Cyclothon will cover the entire state, spreading awareness and delivering the message of drug de-addiction among the people. Lakhs of people across the state have registered to be a part of this anti-drug campaign and help spread its message, Sh. Nayab Singh Saini.
