Increase in the number of drug users in Far-West

Dhangadhi: The Far West is becoming an arena for drug users. Due to the open border checkpoints, the state has become an arena for drug users. Especially in Kailali and Kanchanpur, its users are relatively more.

Ram Bahadur Rajak, who has been running a reformatory in Dhangadhi, said that the effect was felt in the distant hills at first. "The situation of drug users in the far west is alarming," he said. "There are users of brown sugar not only in the Terai but also in remote mountain villages." He says that especially one user used to teach the youth in his company to consume it.

Since you don't always have money to take drugs, you keep adding friends for drug use. Most of the users are addicted due to their friends even after listening to the statements of the people in the reformatory run in Kailali. Some of them have been affected due to mental stress, while others who have been betrayed in love have also fallen into addiction, said Vimal Kumar Bhatt, who has been running a correctional home in Attaria. 'Young people are also addicted due to the weakness of their parents.

The main reason for the spread of the net is the association with the consumers, 'he said. In the far west, there are no definite statistics of drug users in the state. The drug gray heroin is used more here. To control this, drug dealers need to be brought under control. But police have been claiming that there are no dealers in the far west.

According to the police, it is the consumers who sell to each other. Spokesperson of the District Police Office Kailali and Superintendent of Police Ved Prakash Joshi also said that the net was spread by the company of a friend. "Young people are addicted to drugs for their reasons. Friendship is also a factor. Those who try to eat are also trapped. There is a challenge to control it, "he said.
