Mukhla(Meghalaya), June 22: Students at PM SHRI Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya Mukhla took the fight against drugs and waste to the ground, as the Central Bureau of Communication Shillong paired classroom awareness with campus action under Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan and Swachh Bharat Mission.
Principal Neeraj Kumar, Block Programme Assistant Hun-i-ka Tang, faculty, and CBC Shillong officials guided students through the fallout of substance abuse on health, studies, and families. The session quickly became a two-way exchange, with students questioning speakers on prevention and making personal pledges to stay drug-free.
Tang then laid out the nuts and bolts of Swachh Bharat Mission Grameen, from sustaining Open Defecation Free gains to managing solid and liquid waste. She pushed practical habits: segregate at source, cut plastic use, compost kitchen waste, and adopt the Four Rs—Reduce, Refuse, Reuse, Recycle—to keep campuses and communities clean.
The message stuck through hands-on work. Students sketched visions of a drug-free, litter-free India in a drawing contest, then grabbed brooms and bins for a full campus cleanup. A rapid-fire quiz on both missions capped the day, with top performers in art and answers winning prizes and certificates.
For JNV Mukhla, the programme linked awareness to habit. .Students left with clearer choices on drugs, sharper skills on waste, and a campus that looked the part.
