Drug Abuse Prevention Officers/ (DAPO/BUDDY)
Widespread use of drugs within and outside educational institutions has become a matter of serious concern nowadays. Drug dealers target students as both carriers and customers. It has become imperative for teachers and parents to work against this evil force and eliminate it. Highly energetic youth can be guided by educating them as well as warning them about the adverse effects of drugs. With this noble intention, we formed Buddy Groups under DAPO in our college. Basically it is a program run and encouraged by the state government.
