International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking – June 26, 2024

 

The International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, observed on 26 June each year, aims to strengthen efforts and collaboration for a world free from drug abuse. This year’s World Drug Day campaign recognizes the importance of basing effective drug policies on science, research, respect for human rights, compassion, and a deep understanding of the social, economic, and health impacts of drug use.

Vimukthi is an anti-narcotics campaign launched by the Government of Kerala to emphasize the gravity of the situation and raise awareness, particularly among the youth. It is a collective endeavor aimed at eliminating all forms of narcotic substances from Kerala. On this International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, the members of the Vimukti Club at TKMMC pledged to refrain from drug abuse as part of the Government of India's 'Say Yes to Life and No to Drugs' awareness campaign.
