Amit Shah Sets 2029 Target for Drug-Free India, Highlights National AchievementsPreviousNext

Union Home Minister Amit Shah set a target to make India drug-free by December 31, 2029, linking this goal to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of a developed India. Speaking on Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel's birth anniversary, Shah highlighted achievements like the abrogation of Article 370, eradication of Naxalism, and implementation of a unified tax system. He also criticized the Congress party for not adequately recognizing Patel's contributions, emphasizing national unity and the importance of a drug-free future for India's youth.
