Four GITAM University students, who were identified as having consumed drugs, have assured the Telangana EAGLE Force that they would never return to drugs. At the same time, their parents pledged closer supervision and guidance following a counselling session held at the EAGLE Force office in Abids on Wednesday.
EAGLE Force SP Ravula Giridhar conducted the counselling in the presence of the students’ parents to help them understand the health risks, legal consequences and impact of drug abuse on their education and future careers.
The students acknowledged their mistake and assured that they would avoid negative peer influence, focus on their studies and career goals, and refrain from drug consumption in future, said EAGLE Force director Sandeep Shandilya.
“Our officials have warned them against any further involvement in unlawful activities that could invite legal action. Parents, in turn, admitted that their busy schedules had limited their attention towards their children’s activities and pledged to spend more time with them, monitor their friendships and behaviour, and provide better guidance and emotional support,” Sandeep said.
The Force appealed to parents, educational institutions and the public to remain vigilant and report drug-related information through its toll-free helpline 1908, WhatsApp 8712671111 or website https://eagleforce.tspolice.gov.in/. All information will be treated confidentially.
