DRUG ABUSE IN GOA An official Goan study reveals that by 20, our youth take to intravenous drugs -
This is certainly news that cannot be swept under official or non-official rugs. What is most shameful is that by 12, children choose To find out how they can other drugs abuse - Surely they are being targeted by gangs of criminal thugs. One hopes that officials will take notice of what is widely taking place And not treat this phenomenon as an isolated or marginal case. The help of non-official agencies may be required To ensure that what has so brazenly transpired Does not become an even worse State-wide disgrace.
