The Punjab Government continues to adopt a comprehensive approach to combating drug abuse by combining strict enforcement with public awareness, rehabilitation, community participation, and preventive initiatives. The War Against Drugs campaign has become an important platform for mobilising citizens, educational institutions, social organisations, and volunteers to work together towards eliminating the menace of drugs. Such collective efforts are helping strengthen public participation and reinforcing the message of a healthier and drug-free Punjab.
Speaking on the occasion, MLA Kulwant Singh said that eliminating drug abuse requires the united efforts of the government, law enforcement agencies, community organisations, volunteers, and every responsible citizen. He stated that under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, the Punjab Government remains fully committed to making Punjab drug-free through sustained awareness campaigns, stronger community engagement, and coordinated action at every level.
