The All Assam Students' Union (AASU) held a public rally to highlight the growing concern over drug abuse in the state. Participants marched and raised slogans demanding that Assam become completely drug‑free. The student body urged the state government and law‑enforcement agencies to implement stricter measures, increase awareness programmes, and ensure swift action against traffickers.
AASU officials said the rally reflects the frustration of youth who see drug addiction affecting families and communities across Assam. They called for a coordinated response involving schools, colleges, and civil society to curb the menace.
The event underscores the broader push by student organisations in the region to influence public policy on health and safety issues, with the hope that sustained pressure will lead to concrete legislative and enforcement steps.
