“Our Islam is a religion of peace and prohibits use of drugs, beating of women and parents. These social evils must be eradicated from society and elders have a special duty in this regard. You are not retired but your duty starts now. You need to act against the social evils and for that matter our support is with you,” Khalid deliberated upon the people participating in the event
He said that during Nasha Mukt Programmes, people come forward and ensure their support but when it comes to practicality no one is there.
“For a better and just society, we all need to do our part. Police is doing it’s part professionally, but the young and old of the society and even the women folk have a duty to stop our youth from getting involved in drug abuse. We have to save this society,” he added.
