Kathmandu— On August 2, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi is set to inaugurate the 'Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan' via video conferencing. The initiative aims to inspire youth across India to stay away from substance abuse and become ambassadors of positive social change in their communities.

100-Week Campaign Against Substance Abuse

The launch will kick off a 100-week nationwide campaign called 'Jan Bhagidari' against substance abuse. Weekly activities, including sports events, walkathons, meditation sessions, cultural programs, and awareness campaigns, are planned to take place every Sunday across the country.

Collaborative Effort for Social Change

The initiative seeks to strengthen community participation by bringing together educational institutions, youth organizations, civil society groups, industry bodies, and spiritual organizations on a common platform. Over 10,000 locations across the country will see participation from various entities such as MY Bharat Volunteers, national service scheme volunteers, schools, colleges, universities, NGOs, and more than 125 partner spiritual organizations.
