Allow the consumption of drugs like alcohol, tobacco, gutkha by paying taxes : Demands Congress MP KTS Tulsi

Editorial Comment

Everything that is not in the interest of society and every citizen must be stopped. Alcohol, tobacco, and gutkha should also be banned.

New Delhi – “Drugs are a part of the life of everyone. On many occasions, drugs reduce the pain of life. Even though alcohol, tobacco, gutkha cause harm, they are allowed for consumption by paying taxes. Similarly, why are other drugs not allowed ? In many circumstances, drugs have to be taken through medicines. Why the use of drugs should not be allowed in such a situation, if necessary ?” Demanded Congress Rajya Sabha MP KTS Tulsi.
