This was an effort to curb drug menace and to generate healthy/positive competitive ideas in our youth with a slogan “SAY NO TO DRUGS”. The Drug abuse is a terrible problem we face in our society and it is a fact that physical activity may prevent substance abuse. Physical activity can strengthen resistance to addiction. Perhaps students/youths who choose to exercise tend to make healthy decision in general.
