    Will not allow drug trade in the country: Amit Shah

    India | Union Home Minister Amit Shah said that the successful results of the government’s ‘zero tolerance’ policy against drugs have started showing and the government is resolved that neither the trade of drugs will be allowed in the country nor they will be exported to the world through India. I will go out somewhere.

    Union Home Minister Amit Shah in his message on ‘International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking’ on Monday said that the mainstay of the zero tolerance policy is the government’s ‘whole of government approach’ in which efforts are being made in coordination with different departments. The policy has been made effective. Congratulating the organizations and people who are campaigning against drugs, he said that it is a good thing that this time also the Drug Control Bureau is organizing ‘Nasha Mukt Pakhwada’ at all India level.

    The Home Minister said, “It is our resolve that we will not allow the trade of narcotics in India, nor will we allow drugs to go out of the world through India. In this campaign against drugs, all the major agencies of the country, especially the ‘Narcotics Control Bureau’, are continuously continuing their war. An Anti-Drug Task Force was constituted in 2010, whose first national conference was held in Delhi in April last. He said that campaign against drug abuse and side effects is being carried out on a war footing at the national level through appropriate forums.

    PM’s ‘Modi mantra’ to BJP workers for Muslims

    National Desk | Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while calling upon the Muslim community across the country before the next year’s Lok Sabha elections and assembly elections in five states including Madhya Pradesh this year, today said that the Muslim community should understand which political parties provoked them regarding the Common Civil Code. And there are some people who hang the noose of triple talaq on Muslim daughters and want a free hand to oppress them.
    PM Modi addressed around 3,000 booth workers from across the country here as part of BJP’s ‘Mera Booth, Sabse Strong’ campaign. During this, lakhs of booth workers from across the country also joined this program virtually. Party President JP Nadda, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Madhya Pradesh unit president of the party Vishnu Dutt Sharma were also present in the event.
    During this, he kept his point in straight words. He said that vote bank hungry people advocating triple talaq are doing great injustice to Muslim daughters. This is not only harming those daughters, its scope is bigger than that. He said that the parents who have sent their daughter with desires and then someone evicts her, then what will happen to those parents and that brother. Father and brother will all be drowned in his worry. Triple talaq does not just do injustice to daughters, entire families are ruined. If triple talaq was an important part of Islam, then why would many Muslim countries of the world end it. Why doesn’t this happen in Egypt, Pakistan, Indonesia, Qatar, Jordan, Syria. He said that the Muslim brothers of India also have to understand which political parties are trying to take advantage by provoking them.
