During the 138th episode of Mann Ki Baat, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi highlighted the growing youth-led momentum of the 100-week Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Abhiyan. The campaign brings together volunteers from Mera Yuva Bharat (MY Bharat) and the National Service Scheme (NSS), along with educational and social organisations, to raise awareness against substance abuse. The Prime Minister appreciated youth-led creative communication such as ‘Nasha-Mukti Ka Sandesh’, anthem, slogan-writing, and street-play competitions, as well as digital outreach using the hashtag #NashaMuktYuva. The campaign also plans to incorporate health check-ups and meditation camps to promote holistic well-being.
