Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Sunday described substance abuse as the root cause of social ruin and said his government had enforced prohibition in 19 religious towns across the state as part of its fight against addiction.
Addressing a programme here after Prime Minister Narendra Modi virtually launched the 'Nasha Mukt Yuva for Viksit Bharat Sankalp Abhiyan', Yadav said a drug-free nation was the first prerequisite for a developed India, and addiction-free youth formed the foundation of the country's progress.
