Ludhiana, July 12, 2018: Raising the demand to declare death due to drug addiction as murder and to make public the report of the SIT formed to probe into drug addiction, the Communist Party of India Ludhiana district unit organized a rally at the Mini Secretariat today.
Various leaders speaking on the occasion said that the government does not seem serious about the issue. Dope test will turn out to be an eye wash. There are already several laws to control drug peddling, the question is of their effective implementation. Most of the police action is against small villains while the big fish are completely left out. Unless they are taken to task the menace will not be curbed. In this connection it is important that the report of the SIT is made public. Those who die with drug addiction should be declared as having been murdered as their life has come to an end because of drug peddlers who have pushed them into drug addiction. More over government should create more job opportunities so that youth is involved in matters of national building and are not drawn towards drugs.
Those who addressed the gathering include Distt Secretary Com. D.P.Maur, Ramesh Rattan, Gulzar Goria, Chamkaur Singh, M.S.Bhatia, Gurnam Sidhu, Vijay Kumar and others.
