BENGALURU: Home Minister Dr G Parameshwara called upon the police to ensure a drug-free Karnataka. The run, held on the theme ‘Fitness for All’, was flagged off by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah from Vidhana Soudha, and it traversed through Cubbon Park to spread awareness on drug-free Karnataka. Siddaramaiah said, “The rising susceptibility of youth to substance abuse underscores the need for unified efforts to establish a drug-free environment in Karnataka and Bengaluru. A police run was arranged to raise awareness and restore Bengaluru as a green city to promote a healthy lifestyle for the youth.” Over 10,000 citizens, including members of the Karnataka state police, senior citizens, and specially-abled individuals participated in the event.
