Question

According to the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment, 46,410

cases of substance abuse by street children were reported in Delhi last year. The

cases of consumption of drug substances during the year were-heroin (840),

opium (420), pharmaceutical opioids (210), and sedatives (210). These figures

were based on a recent study by the All India Institute of Medical Sciences

(AIIMS).The NGO ‗Save the Children‘ stated that about 50,923 children live on

the streets of Delhi in 2011. Out of these, 46,411 children were addicted to

drugs. As per the records of the National Crime Records Bureau, 53 and 34

unnatural deaths of children below 18 years were recorded due to a drug

overdose during 2015 and 2016 respectively.

The Haryana Government implemented a scheme titled ‗Central Sector

Scheme of Assistance for Prevention of Alcoholism and Substance (Drug) Abuse‘

to curb the issue of drug abuse. Under this scheme, a financial assistance was

given to the eligible NGOs, Panchayati Raj institutions and urban local bodies by

the government, which in turn will provide integrated services for the

rehabilitation of addicts. An advisory was issued by the government to all states

and UTs asking them to take measures for the prevention of substance abuse

among children. CHETNA is an NGO which runs an unofficial recreation center for

children inside the Nizamuddin Police Station. They mainly focus on developing

friendly relations between the police and street children who are more

susceptible to drugs and crime.
