Eagle Cell Sensitises Students on Drug Abuse in Kakinada
The programme, organised under the “Break the Silence” initiative on the instructions of District Superintendent of Police Bindu Madhav, was held at the college playground under the jurisdiction of the Three Town Police Station.
The Eagle Cell personnel explained the harmful effects of drug abuse and cautioned students against falling prey to addiction, which could jeopardise their future.
They also briefed the students on the legal provisions of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act and urged them to share information about the sale or illegal transportation of ganja and other narcotic substances.
Students and members of the public can report such information by calling the Eagle toll-free number 1972. The personnel assured that the identity of informants would be kept confidential.
The Eagle Cell sought the cooperation of students and youth in the effort to make Kakinada district free of ganja and other narcotic drugs.
