Hyderabad: Hyderabad Police Commissioner CV Anand on Saturday urged parents to keep an eye on the activities of their school-going children.
“Many parents are unaware about the activities of their children. Due to peer pressure, the children are getting attracted and addicted to drugs. It is a dangerous trend and we should identify it and take immediate steps,” he said during the inauguration of the ‘Drug Free Hyderabad’ campaign here.
Pointing out that following instructions from Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, a crackdown on drug mafia had brought the situation under control, Anand said peddlers of both the ganja and other drugs like cocaine, heroin etc were being nabbed.
Home Minister Mohd Mahmood Ali, who inaugurated the campaign, said the State government was serious in curbing the drug menace and that the Chief Minister had instructed both the police and the Prohibition and Excise Department to continue the crackdown on drug syndicates.
