Assam and several other northeastern states are witnessing a concerning rise in narcotics-related cases, with traffickers adopting sophisticated methods such as remote coordination and drone use for drug transport. Chief Minister হিমন্ত বিশ্ব শৰ্মা highlighted that drug peddlers operate from distant locations, necessitating a long-term fight against this menace. The Assam Education Department has intensified anti-narcotics awareness initiatives, embedding drug education in school events and observation days. For example, in গোলাঘাট district, the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan’s Cluster Resource Centre Coordinator led Children’s Day programs educating over 250 students at নাহৰবাৰী এম.ভি. বিদ্যালয় about the dangers of drug abuse. Activities included poster making, educational games, and discussions aimed at empowering children to reject drugs and choose safer, healthier futures. This approach aligns with the state’s broader mission to prevent narcotics use among youth, reinforcing awareness as a frontline defense.
