In a strong step toward shaping a drug-free future, an Awareness Program on the Dangers of Drug Abuse was organized for the youth and children at the Telangana Tribal Welfare Residential School, Ichoda, located in Adilabad District. The event was held under the auspices of the National Nimble Human Rights Foundation.
Dr. Peter Naik Lakavath, a dedicated social reformer and the Chairman of the Peter Naik Charitable Trust, participated as the chief guest and led the session with a powerful message aimed at protecting the younger generation from the grip of addiction.
Addressing the students and attendees, Dr. Peter Naik Lakavath emphasized:
"Drugs destroy the lives of youth. One must focus on the future, align with the aspirations of parents, and strive for higher achievements in life."
The program was attended by a large number of students, teachers, and local dignitaries, who were deeply engaged in discussions and presentations that highlighted the devastating physical, psychological, and social consequences of drug abuse.
The event also encouraged young minds to adopt positive lifestyle choices, build strong self-confidence, and reach out for support when needed. It served as a platform for education, awareness, and empowerment—equipping children and youth with the knowledge to make informed decisions.
Through such initiatives, the Peter Naik Charitable Trust continues to work tirelessly towards uplifting communities, safeguarding the health and well-being of youth, and inspiring them to walk a path of purpose and success.
