Bidi cigarettes and Gutkha are openly sold at the stores and the administration does not pay attention to them. The number of stores is increasing due to lack of action. Pritam Singh, Rewari. Despite the ban on the sale of drugs around schools in the district, sales go on with educational institutions in the city and rural areas. Stores are decorated at the main gate of schools and Gutkha, Bidi and Cigarette are sold. Neither the education department nor the administrative officials pay attention to this. Shocking facts came out when Dainik Jagran investigated various educational institutions in the city. Drugs such as Bidi, cigarette to tobacco and gutkha, etc. Are sold openly without any restriction. The result is that small children started smoking to eat bidis, cigarettes with Gutkha. Explain that the state government smokes and the sale of drugs in a radius of 100 meters around all school premises. It is necessary to write a warning outside the schools in this regard, but this warning is not seen outside the schools. Most government and private schools have opened stores to sell toffee and other food items, and these shop owners have begun to keep Bidi, Cigarette, Pan Masala, Gutkha with these goods. Children become addicted to drugs due to stores near the school. The worst situation is from open schools in the city, where there are drug stores from the main gate to the school. Gutkha students and teachers who come within the school can not carry Gutkha, Bidi or Cigarette in school, the principal and the principal must monitor it. Even after this, Gutkha reaches schools. An example of this is the marks of Gutkha on the walls. Even in many schools, it is seen that teachers teach them by guting and tobacco in the mouth of children. During the search, narcotics were also restored to the students. If the police administrative and administrative officials are acted, these drugs may be stopped, but it does not happen. Due to a lack of action, the number of stores is increasing. Strict steps are taken against those who sell drugs at stores running around the school grounds. Observation is done periodically. In addition, nearby shop owners are also made aware of children not to sell drugs. -SubHash Chand, District Education Officer, Rewari.
