NCB starts campaign for drug-free school campus

NCB Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede said the drive was kickstarted at a Santacruz school

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has started a campaign to keep school campuses free of drugs in Mumbai and has identified 200 institutions to help in the initiative, an officer said on Sunday.


The campaign has started from a well-known school in Santacruz and the response from the students there has been tremendous, NCB Mumbai Zonal Director Sameer Wankhede told PTI.


“We are asking students to take a pledge to keep their campus drug-free and to inform the NCB if anyone is indulging in drugs inside it or within the vicinity. A link will be sent to schools for students, including those in NCC, to take the pledge,” he said.


Students who take the pledge will get a certificate from the Ministry of Home Affairs, under which the anti-drug agency operates, as well as the NCB and this can be downloaded, Wankhede informed.
