He said that there was a need to organize de-addiction programs against it to raise awareness among the people in the society, especially in Himachal Pradesh. All social organizations should come forward in this direction, he appealed.

“If the society thinks in one direction, then it has that power that it can face every challenge. It was the same strength of our thinking, we won the corona battle”, said the Governor.
