Law against substance abuse in India


Author(s): Abhishek Anand and Shambhavi Mishra

Abstract: Indian public health, social harmony, and economic growth are all greatly affected by drug abuse. This essay gives a thorough synopsis of the background history, statistics, policy answers, and suggestions related to drug abuse in India. The paper looks at how views, practices, and laws about drugs have changed over time from ancient times through the present day. It does this by using different fields of study, such as history, sociology, public health, or policy studies. It looks at the rates, trends, and links between substance abuse and different groups of people and places, focusing on the societal and financial factors and mental health problems that happen at the same time as substance abuse. The paper also looks at current laws, public health programs, and community-based efforts that are meant to stop drug abuse. It also finds problems and holes in how these policies are being put into action. Based on these findings, the paper suggests ways to improve enforcement, boost efforts to stop drug abuse, increase access to treatment and rehabilitation services, deal with socioeconomic factors, encourage collaboration and partnerships, support research and data collection, fight discrimination and stigma, make policy implementation stronger, give community-based approaches more power, and support a more complete approach to drug abuse.
