Prime Minister Narendra Modi Tuesday invited views on the issue of "mitigating the menace of drugs", an issue he said he would discuss in his next radio address.
 
"During 'Mann Ki Baat' programme, I talked about many friends writing to me on the menace of drugs. I said I will take it up in next programme," the prime minister said in a tweet.
 
"I invite you to share your views on the issue of mitigating the menace of drugs. If you have worked in this area, please share your experiences," he added.
 
Modi, in his "Man Ki Baat" radio address Nov 2, said that he will discuss the problems related to drugs in the next radio programme.
 
He also asked NGOs working on the issue to share their experiences, and said: "It will be wonderful to know about the work being done."
