Drug addicts in Turbat
We need to join our hands together and protect our community from this menace
TURBAT:
It hurts me to mention that the number of people addicted to drugs is rapidly increasing in the city of Turbat. Recently, I saw around 10 drug addicts picking up garbage in the streets. Their clothes were in tatters and their bodies covered in dirt. They did not look mentally nor physically healthy.
Drugs have nearly brought them to the brink. They have wasted their precious lives, and now they are influencing the younger generations. Many teenagers have turned to drugs. There is a sudden rise in the availability of drugs in Turbat which is slowly destroying the youth of the city.
I request the government to spread awareness to the younger generation regarding the hazards caused by drugs to human lives and families. We need to join our hands together and protect our community from this menace.
