Deputy Inspector General, Central Kashmir, Rajiv Omprakash Pande, urged the youth to adopt fitness as a powerful tool to combat the rising drug menace.

After flagging off cyclists for their journey to Kanyakumari, on Thursday, the DIG Srinagar, while speaking to reporters said that the event was organised to support a group of cyclists pedalling from Lal Chowk to Kanyakumari.

He praised their effort, noting that their journey not only promotes fitness but also conveys a message of a pollution-free India.

“So many students and so many youths are connected with drugs, and we have seen the menace all around. The message is simple: once you start the fitness journey, these drugs and other associated issues naturally diminish”, he said.

He also said that engaging in physical activities like cycling not only promotes health but also naturally discourages harmful habits such as drug abuse.
