Centre Launches 100-Week Anti-Drug Campaign Alongside Major Economic and Infrastructure Push

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the nationwide “Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat” campaign, initiating a 100-week strategy focused on eradicating substance abuse among youth through public participation, community outreach, and strict law enforcement actions. The launch was complemented by a nationwide National Cadet Corps (NCC) Cyclothon celebrating 79 years of Indian Independence while promoting fitness, national unity, and civic awareness. Concurrently, the Union Government directed state administrations to establish dedicated NDPS courts to clear over 3.9 lakh pending drug cases across the judicial system. On the economic front, a preliminary SBI Research report projected India’s real GDP growth at approximately 7% for the first quarter of the fiscal year, signaling robust domestic resilience. Fuel consumption data mirrored this steady expansion, with petrol and diesel sales rising up to 10% year-on-year in July, driven by increased industrial transit and agricultural activity. Strategically, the Defense Ministry initiated the 4th Tri-Services Future Warfare Course in New Delhi to align military readiness with modern technological capabilities. Meanwhile, diplomatic engagement reopened historical trade links as cross-border commercial movement resumed via the Nathu La Pass following a six-year hiatus. These synchronized administrative, economic, and strategic initiatives reflect the administration’s broader push toward structural modernization and holistic national development. The government reiterated its commitement to youth development, digital health access, and balanced regional growth to ensure long-term stability and economic security.
