Awareness Drive to promote the disuse of Tobacco
In view of the No Tobacco Day a need was felt to motivate the youth about the need for discontinuing the use of illicit substances like Tobacco as it is very harmful for their personal health and prolonged use may even cause death. Youths are the backbone of the country and without a strong backbone a country cannot prosper hence there was a growing need to spread awareness and inculcate good habits in the youngsters
For 2 days at the NTSK railway station we performed a street play which highlighted the harmful effects of addiction of Tobacco. I connected the skit in such a manner showcasing a skilled youth whose money and health are both wasted due to his addiction and his parents are facing hard times because of the loss of a son and also because of the debt he has left behind because of his habits. This was to showcase the negative impact that illicit substances create in our lives
Through the following initiatives we were able to learn the need for discontinuing the usage of illicit substances like Tobacco which are not only harmful for our body and mind but also destroys our life and lives of our loved ones. The youth needs to centralize their focus on other positives aspects in the society and not get along with such negative habits as these are not helpful for the development of the community and sets a bad example for the other youngsters of the community.
