It is a societal problem that needs to be tackled collectively with due focus on protecting youth and children, says Chief Secretary G. Sai Prasad. Chief Secretary G. Sai Prasad has directed the Elite Anti-Narcotics Group for Law Enforcement (EAGLE) to curb the usage of ganja and drugs by taking stringent measures as these substances are posing a grave threat to society. “It is not a matter concerning one or two departments, but a societal problem to be tackled collectively with due focus on protecting the youth and children,” Mr. Sai Prasad said while addressing the first quarterly meeting of the Narcotics Coordination Committee (NCORD) at the Secretariat on Wednesday.
