A very informative article I came across on the increasing drug menace in our country http://www.mid-day.com/articles/dangerous-new-drug-meow-meow-haunts-mumbai-youth/15228056 youth is getting attracted to drug use just due to peer pressure, achieving a sense of false euphoria, We need to combat drug abuse by controlling its import into the country as well by cracking down heavily on the domestic drug mafia

Dear Modiji Our youth is very much affected from drugs and I think late night discotheques and club's may be one of the place for drugs. Drugs must be banned at any cost to save our youth. As youth is our future sir .A special watch must be kept on these discos and late night club's so that we can completely stopped the consumption of drugs.

Respected Modi ji, first of all I would like to draw your attention towards the drugs that are supplied in the market are easily available for the youngsters, and I am sorry to say that even the local police are also well aware of the fact but for some bribe(money) they do nothing to that drug supplier, Modi ji I would request you to first ask the police men to be sincere and active for your thought of tackling the drug menace in india or else all the effort of yours or ours will be of no use.

The most important aspect is to impart moral values and ethics to young children and even their parents. Importance of discipline and dedication also need to be highlighted through a revamp of the education system. Population control is another critical area, which no one in a position of power really wants to talk about but is an area which people really need to be educated about. Better not to have children, than have children you cannot feed, clothe and educate!

In most cases drug addiction has a deeprooted depression as its route cause. The mental state of drug addicts is not dissimilar to that of incarcerated prison convicts. Mrs Kiran Bedi has done some wonderful work with prisoner's of Tihar jail. She has deployed Vipassana meditation very successfully. I am wondering if something similar can be done for drug addicts. Maybe her services can be used to run a pilot project to test Vipassana on recovering addicts or their near & dear ones

I am from Pune MH. Every day municipal cleaners burn the garbage and within an hour all the air around gets polluted. I asked them to stop, even had a chat with the supervisor, told them that garbage burning punishable offence, but no use. Its winter now, people are burning more fire. Sweepers burn the garbage and it is left to create smoke for hours. Please take this issue for cleaner env. and healthier air.
