Hyderabad, Aug 3 (Maxim News): Lovely Professional University (LPU) joined the launch of the nationwide 100-week “Nasha Mukta Yuva for Viksit Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan – Gen Z Against Addiction” campaign with the participation of over 5,000 students, NSS volunteers and faculty members, who came together to take the Nasha Mukti Pledge, reaffirming their commitment to a drug-free life, a statement from LPU said.
The campaign, launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and spearheaded by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports, witnessed participation from youth across more than 28,000 locations nationwide.
LPU was selected as one of only nine universities in the country to participate in the live virtual interaction with the Prime Minister.
“LPU has consistently championed the cause of a drug-free society through sustained awareness, prevention and community engagement. The university maintains a strict zero-tolerance policy towards drugs and alcohol, supported by a dedicated team of trained security personnel deployed round the clock to ensure that the campus remains safe and drug-free,” the LPU statement said.
Extending its efforts beyond the campus, LPU’s National Service Scheme (NSS) volunteers regularly conduct anti-drug awareness campaigns in neighbouring villages and rural communities through rallies, street plays, interactive sessions and community outreach programmes to educate people about the harmful consequences of substance abuse.
