The Premia Academy Organises Awareness Program on Drug Abuse and Illicit trafficking

 


Hyderabad: Premia Academy organized an awareness program on the ill effects of drug abuse and trafficking at their campus in Hyderabad at the first Voice of Wisdom event, an initiative taken by The Premia Academy to address pressing issues in education, parenting and childcare. The event aimed at creating awareness about the physical and psychological effects of substance abuse, the drug-related humanitarian crisis and the steps to eradicate the menace. The program was organized in association with Dr. Kalyan Chakravarthy, a renowned Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, and Ms. Bhargavi Reddy, a Mental Health advocate and conscious parenting coach. The event was organized to mark the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit trafficking which is recognized worldwide as a day to strengthen action and cooperation to achieve the goal of an international society free of drug abuse.

The International Day against Drugs Abuse and Illicit Trafficking is a United Nations initiative to raise awareness among the masses against drug abuse and the illegal drug trade.     

The speakers emphasized that the drug epidemic is engulfing society, especially the youth, who represent the future of the nation.  It is our primary duty to educate the children about drugs and illicit trafficking and most importantly, their root causes so that these social evils can be eradicated. The speakers also interacted with students to recognize the reason for addictions and how they can identify these at the right time.   

Speaking on the occasion Psychiatrist Dr. Kalyan Chakravarthy said, “Addiction involves genetic factors, peer pressure, loneliness, and hopelessness, which are especially prevalent in teens. It is our duty to ensure that we impart the right education and create such avenues to educate children. I want to thank Premia Academy for providing this forum for a constructive dialogue with the students.”  

Adding to this Ms. Bhargavi Reddy, a mental health advocate and conscious parenting coach, said, "Though drug abuse is a big menace, these addictions can be addressed effectively by channelizing the kid’s and adult’s energies, eating balanced food, and providing the right support. We have to ensure a conducive environment at home and ensure our kids are aware of the ill effects of drug abuse.” 

According to Ms. Trupti Rao, Principal, Premia Academy, "We are delighted to organize the awareness program on 'International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking'. The event is focused on creating a dialogue about addiction and the humanitarian crises related to drugs. In the present day, kids face so many physiological and mental challenges and its imperative for educational institutes like Premia Academy to help the students understand the dark world surrounding drugs and trafficking.

  Budget Reaction from  Mr. Anand Kr. Maloo, President- F&A, M.S. Agarwal Foundries "I commend Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on today's budget, which prioritizes the steel industry's growth with increased allocations, enhancing its competitiveness and driving economic growth. The removal of the 2.5% basic customs duty on the import of ferronickel for stainless steel and specialty alloys is a significant and positive step. Increased spending on infrastructure, affordable housing, and internship opportunities fosters innovation and entrepreneurship. The abolition of the Angel Tax and the increased Mudra loan limit to 20 lakhs will support small businesses. While the rise in LTCG could have been avoided, the budget demonstrates a commitment to building a resilient steel sector and driving economic growth. Overall, the budget is a forward-looking and growth-oriented initiative that will benefit India's economy."
