Appeal from the "Help Group"

Nepal is a small country with only about 23 million population. Almost 80% of her people live in rural areas. However the number of small urban areas is increasing day by day and along with this the problem of use of illicit drug is also rapidly increasing. It is unfortunate that the whole tragedy is happening inside the bush, by the side of temples, along the riverbeds and in isolated and deserted places, which are never paid any attention by the people. Parents are too busy in these areas and they simply have no time to look after the children. The extent of tragedy has been observed so much that two husband and wives, both busy practitioners when asked to give little time while counseling their only son in one of the Harm Reduction Centers could not find time for this and ultimately the son left the world for ever. 

The situation of drug users is quite serious in this tiny country. Both people and government do not seem to be that serious. It is almost certain that the situation will be much worst some day in near future and that will be the worst not only for Nepal but may be for the world as a whole. Therefore at this juncture I would only like to humbly request this august gathering that at least let us take it seriously, try to help these unfortunate drug users all over the world including a country like Nepal and bring about changes. 

THANK YOU ALL!

 MY PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU AND SHARE SOME OF MY TRAGIC FEELINGS !!!
