SRINAGAR, Sep 14: Lieutenant Governor Jammu and Kashmir , Manoj Sinha inaugurated two-day workshop for Sensitization/ training programmes for representatives of PRIs, ULBs and Police to strengthen Child Protection System/Mechanism in the UT.
LG said " This is the first such campaign organised by Women & Child Development Ministry in the country. For many decades, our children did not get the childhood they deserve.
Conflict profiteers brainwashed them and handed over stones in their hands. We have decimated that ecosystem and our children now carry laptops, tabs & contributing in nation building.
Adolescent drug abuse is one of the major areas of concern.
We have adopted zero tolerance policy against drugs with a vision of drug-free J&K. I call upon public representatives, NGOs, community elders, religious leaders, youth clubs to join the fight against the drug menace."
