Darpan News Desk IANS, 04 Nov, 2014 10:24 AM
  • Now, share your views on drug menace with Modi
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."
 
Sharing the link to the MyGov open forum - http://mygov.in/groupissue/tackling-the-drug-menace-in-india/show - Modi said people can share their comments, ideas, views and past work in the area.
 
For those willing to send him personal messages, the prime minister wrote: "If you have a personal experience and don't want to share it in public, please write to me directly, use #mannkibaat at http://pmindia.gov.in/en/interact-with-honble-pm/."

This surely is an instance of better late than never - in this case, all of 48 years. The infamous "G.B.Road" address on the voter identity cards of Delhi's sex workers had stripped away their dignity and made them a subject of humiliation and ignominy. This will hopefully change with the Election Commission (EC) deciding to replace the address with Swami Shraddhanand Marg - the road's official name since 1966.
