Watching the weed business grow in such
fashion, it’s hard to say if drugs are really banned in this country. Recently,
several youngsters were booked by the police at a rave party in the city. Very
common in upper parts of the town, such parties are difficult to monitor as
they are held at secret locations and party-goers are informed through secret
modes of messages.
Drugs like cannabis, opium and heroin
are easily available in the surroundings of Dharamshala. The best source are
the ‘peddlers’ - found in great numbers in the city. These peddlers are either
drug addicts or those trying to make some quick buck.
Unaware of the consequences, many
unemployed youngsters are lured into ‘peddling’ – due to high demand
and great profits in the drug business. What attracts the youth towards this
illegal business - unemployment or a high demand for drugs? Though the answer
is unclear, it’s clear that if things go unchecked, it will only get worse.
