Anti-Chitta Marathon in Shahpur on November 12, Children, Youth and Elderly to Participate: Pathania

Shahpur, ( Kangra) Nov 10 (UNI) Shahpur will organise an Anti-Chitta Marathon from Harachakkiyan to Gubbar on November 12, with children, youth, elderly people and members of various sections of society participating to strengthen the campaign for a drug-free Himachal Pradesh.
Shahpur MLA and Deputy Chief Whip Kewal Singh Pathania said the marathon aims to turn the resolve of building a drug-free Himachal into a mass movement through active public participation.
He said public involvement was essential to realise Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu's vision of a drug-free Himachal. The marathon would spread awareness about the harmful effects of drug abuse and promote collective responsibility in combating the menace.
Pathania said chitta was not merely an individual or family problem but a serious challenge to the future of society. Parents, youth, educational institutions, social organisations and every section of society must join hands to fight the menace, he added.
He appealed to people to participate enthusiastically in the marathon and play an active role in building a drug-free society.
Pathania said various awareness activities were being organised in Shahpur constituency to highlight the harmful consequences of drug abuse. He expressed confidence that sustained collective efforts and public cooperation could effectively curb the social menace.
The marathon, he said, would send a strong message of unity against chitta, public awareness and the need for a healthy society. UNI AR CDS
