As we celebrate International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking on June 26, its important to understand the impact of both the evils around the world. First, let us discuss drug abuse. Drug abuse has plagued the world for a long time.
Many youths around the world have been either forced to take drugs or have been taking drugs for long despite knowing the consequences of the same. Drug abuse is one of the heinous crimes committed by people despite the governments of various countries putting a ban on the same.
Coming to illicit trafficking we see that mostly the underdeveloped or developing countries are affected by it. People who do not have money sell their kids to a rich person who uses them the way he likes. The kids are wither forced into this or they are pampered in doing this.
Despite all the strict measures, illicit trafficking is still done by many people through various means of transport. There should be more stringent measures regarding both the evils so that they can be removed from grass root level and the world becomes a safer place to live in.
