Highlighting the significance of generating awareness against drug addiction, Rana expressed concern over the younger generation largely getting affected by this malady, saying the rally in this regard organised by the Trust headed by Mahant Rohit Shastri is of crucial importance. “Such efforts are certainly going to generate awareness about the evils of drug addiction,” he added.
