Govt. must form SIT to nab down the Drug Mafias

Nasha Mukt Bharat Yatra enters into fifth day

Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh: On the fifth day of Nasha Mukt Bharat Yatra, In Aaron Kumar Mohallah, Dr. Sunilam proceeded to pay tribute to Gandhi Statue which was surprisingly found missing which was later found in the nearby house. The incident was surprising as the Govt. is bound to take care of monuments but it shows the neglect and apathy on the Govt. side. Dr. Sunilam expressed his grief and blamed Municipal Corporation who seems to be completely negligent in efficient management of the resources. Pavan Srivastav, Satish Raghuvanshi, Balram Dagi, Puran Singh Raghuvanshi, and kuldeep Shrivastav (Netaji Mohan Prashad Foundation), and others were present in the meeting. While addressing the people Paban Srivastav said that poor villages are completely in the grasp of intoxicants and alcohol where he also mentioned about most of the youths, who are considered to be future of the country are either taking smack or heroin, this has resulted in death of 12-14 lives so far. Youths are so addicted of these substances, which is now forcing them to do robbery and beating parents for money to buy intoxicants.

While expressing deep anguish, Adv. Aradhana Bhargav said, ‘it has been more than 69 years since independence but the M.P. Excise Act of 1915 is still in practice unchanged, this is enough to describe government’s position of not willing to bring legislations to protect the interest of communities rather it sees it as a source of revenue and key to development. At the other end, Govt. is proactive in giving protection to industries and corporates, who are doing the business of alcohol and intoxicants. Dr. Bijay Bijolya represented the destruction caused due to intoxication and alcohol through a song.

Later Dr. Sunilam and others did a press conference at Guna. People in huge numbers from Gayatri Shakti Parivar and Muslim society participated in the meeting at Guna. Omprakash Agarwal, Nurullah Yousuf, Dr. Pusparaj, Rakesh Mishra, Suresh Parasar and others have welcomed the Yatra with big applause. Addressing the meeting, Dr. Sunilam has urged the Chief Minister to form SIT (Special Investigation Team) to get hold of those who are largely involved in the business of smack and heroin. He also added that local politicians are stopping the police from taking action, hence SIT must be formed to trace such politicians too who are protecting such inhumane acts. Further he appealed all sections of society to come forward and take a collective pledge to make the village intoxicant free. From Gayatri Parivar, Sri Narayan Prashad said, we support the Nasha Mukt Bharat Yatra happening in Madhya Pradesh and will also work closely to achieve the goal of making the society intoxicant free with the help of movement and people. Rao Balvant Singh explained the deep relationship of corruption and business of intoxicants. While speaking before the masses, further he claimed to expose the nexus between Excise department and police department involved in corruption and shielding the Drug Mafias.

At the end of the day, Nasha Mukt Bharat Yatra reached Shivpuri, where Ashok Sharma, Nagengra Chaturbadi, Direndra Singh, Manish Pandey as organizers welcomed the Caravan and addressed the gathering. Ashok Sharma asked the income hard earned by labours, farmers and others must be used in fulfilling the basic necessities, not for alcohol. The movement will make sure such toxic free life for the poor’s and people will collectively take the movement to success with their active participation.
