In his message Prime Minister Modi said, "Today, on International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, I laud all those working at the grassroots to eliminate the menace of drugs from our society. Every such effort to #SaveLives is vital. After all, drugs bring with it darkness, destruction and devastation."

"Let us reiterate our commitment to #ShareFactsOnDrugs and realise our vision of a Drugs Free India. Remember - addiction is neither cool nor a style statement. Sharing an old #MannKiBaat episode which contained many aspects of overcoming the drugs menace." he added.
