“The drug addiction tendencies among children can be identified at an early stage only through the increasing vigil of teachers and schools over their routine activities both at the schools and well as in their homes.”
The surge in the intensity of the drug addictions is heading to no dead end in Jammu & Kashmir despite continuing high intensity crackdown of police on drug addicts and increasing focus of religious preachers and civil society groups on public awareness against this growing menace across Jammu & Kashmir. With religious preachers exhorting youth to shun the path of drug addiction and police continuing its crackdown on drug addict the role of teachers in schools and coaching centres is very crucial. Drug addiction is a growing social crime spoiling the lives of youth for almost last one decade now in nook and corner in Jammu & Kashmir and as such necessitates much bigger attention and intervention of both the teachers and as well as the parents. While seminars on drug addiction in schools and colleges is one strong tool of public awareness against the drug addiction, the vigil of both the teachers and as well as the parents on the routine activities of children matters the most. The drug addiction tendencies among children can be identified at an early stage only through the increasing vigil of teachers and schools over their routine activities both at the schools and well as in their homes. While identification of drug addiction tendencies among the youth at early stages would give both the teachers and as well as the students the opportunity to take preventive measures well in time, it is also a fact that preventive actions would by all probabilities reduce the intensity of the occurrence of mental and physical health imbalances among drug addict youth at later stages. The preventive measures if started from schools and homes would prevent youth from falling into the death traps of drug addiction and reduce the increasing intensity of the spread of drug addiction across Jammu & Kashmir.
“Police continuing its crackdown on drug addicts for last several years both in Kashmir Valley and as well as Jammu division is also duty bound to destroy the supply chains for completely eradicating the menace of drug addiction from Jammu & Kashmir. While both the religious preachers and civil society groups are playing their role by exhorting youth to show zero tolerance against drug addiction, the teachers and parents being the key of sources of the conduct and behaviour of children have a much bigger role in the ongoing fight against drug addiction.”
While preventive measures like vigil of teachers and parents over the drug addiction tendencies of children would surely reduce the spread of drug addiction, cutting the supply chains of drug addiction that necessitates the intervention of police matters the most. After all it is an irrefutable fact that police continuing its crackdown on drug addicts for last several years both in Kashmir Valley and as well as Jammu division is also duty bound to destroy the supply chains for completely eradicating the menace of drug addiction from Jammu & Kashmir. While both the religious preachers and civil society groups are playing their role by exhorting youth to show zero tolerance against drug addiction, the teachers and parents being the key of sources of the conduct and behaviour of children have a much bigger role in the ongoing fight against drug addiction.
