Karnataka Police & Psychiatrist address students on Drugs Awareness

Karnataka Police & Psychiatrist address students on Drugs Awareness Children are the future of our world and their knowledge should be something that we all invest into. Proper education about substance abuse is a crucial preventative measure for kids and teenagers. When adults share factual information about substance abuse, it helps kids develop a better sense of drug abuse awareness. Without proper educational measures about the harmful effects of drugs, kids may develop increased risks for becoming curious about drugs, falling prey to peer pressure, and try drugs themselves. When kids experiment with drugs it places them in a high-risk category for developing eventual drug tolerance, dependence, and addiction.

Karnataka Police in collaboration with Psychiatrist Dr. Carolyn D'Souza addressed the first year MBA students. Dr. Carolyn D’Souza spoke about various forms of addictions and advised the students to stay away from these. Later, Police officials also addressed the gathering and spoke about the ill effects of drugs and how it is linked to law and order issues.
