Substance use leads to severe social, psychological, and physical issues. To combat this, the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment launched the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyaan (NMBA) on 15th August 2020. NMBA coordinates prevention, assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, aftercare, public information dissemination, and community awareness initiatives. Initially targeting 272 vulnerable districts, NMBA has expanded nationwide, reaching over 12.71 crore individuals. Through partnerships, NMBA fosters responsibility, reduces stigma, and promotes acceptance and accountability in substance use prevention.

Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment in collaboration with MyGov is hosting a Painting Challenge and invites budding artists encouraging them to depict the importance of courage, resilience, and peer support in fighting against substance use through the medium of painting.

The theme of the painting contest is “Folk Art and Storytelling”, and participants are encouraged to create artworks inspired by folk tales and legends to promote NMBA principles, promote cultural preservation, celebrate diversity, promote mental well-being, and foster community empowerment.
