6,000 Students take anti-drug pledge
Around 6,000 students took an anti-drug pledge during an awareness campaign held at Dr. Ambedkar Government Arts College in Vyasarpadi, Chennai, inaugurated by Police Commissioner A. Amalraj.
An anti-drug awareness camp was held yesterday at Dr. Ambedkar Government Arts College in Vyasarpadi, Chennai. Inaugurating the event, Chennai Police Commissioner A. Amalraj stated that road accidents, cyber frauds, and drug abuse pose a significant threat to today's society.
He noted that the public in Tamil Nadu is losing between Rs. 13 crore and Rs. 15 crore daily to cyber frauds, primarily due to a lack of awareness. A silent play titled 'Choose Life, Say No to Drugs' was performed by students on the occasion.
Commissioner Amalraj introduced a new anti-drug logo and led around 6,000 students in taking a pledge against drug abuse. Additional Police Commissioner Kapil Kumar C. Sharatkar and others participated in the event.
