A rally was held to create public awareness on the rise in drug abuse among students and its negative fallout on the individual and the society at large, in Mysuru on Wednesday.

The rally with the theme ‘’Say No to Drugs’’ was organised by the city police in association with other stakeholders including Manipal Hospital, Red FM 93.5, Hotel Owners Association etc.

Inaugurating the rally the commissioner of police Ramesh Banoth said that there was a time when drugs were available only in major cities but it was not the case today and was widely available even in tier two cities.
