💔‘Parents Must Act Before It’s Too Late’: Doctors Reveal Shocking Trend of Girls Using and Selling Dr*gs

Srinagar, Feb 24, 2026:
A comprehensive drug de-addiction awareness programme was conducted at Islamia College of Science & Commerce on Tuesday by the 82 Battalion CRPF in collaboration with Shifa Foundation. The initiative aimed at spreading awareness about substance abuse, rehabilitation processes, and the importance of leading a healthy and responsible life.

In a significant and concerning revelation, a doctor from a drug de-addiction centre stated that a growing number of girls are approaching treatment facilities. “We are receiving many girls for treatment who are not only consuming drugs but are also involved in selling them,” the doctor said, urging parents to remain vigilant and take timely action before it is too late.

Principal Prof. (Dr.) Tehmina Yousuf formally welcomed the participants and emphasized the need for a collaborative approach among all stakeholders to effectively tackle the issue of substance abuse. Addressing the students, she encouraged them to openly share their concerns with mentoring faculty members and assured full institutional support for their well-being and personal growth.

The programme was graced by the presence of Mr. Rahul D. Seth, 2nd Commandant, 82 Bn CRPF, Dy Commandant Munir Khan, and other officers from the battalion. A large gathering of students, along with faculty and non-teaching staff, attended the event.

Experts from Shifa Foundation shared valuable insights into the psychological, medical, and social dimensions of substance abuse, with a particular focus on rehabilitation and recovery. The expert panel included Dr. Amir Sharief, Dr. Nuha Khursheed, Mr. Fida Hussain, Mr. Bilal Ahmad, Ms. Baiza Kirmani, and Ms. Kousar Jan.

Volunteers from NSS Unit III of the college presented a powerful skit portraying the role of family dynamics, parenting gaps, peer pressure, and social influences in pushing youth toward substance abuse, while also highlighting the path to recovery through rehabilitation.

Ms. Mehrul Nisa, a student of English Literature, delivered an impactful speech, stressing the importance of “replacing substance with purpose, shame with support, and numbness with belongingness” to ensure effective recovery.

The programme concluded with a strong message of collective responsibility and commitment from students, faculty, and security forces to work together toward building a drug-free society.

*Eggs safe for consumption, cancer risk claims unfounded: FSSAI*

New Delhi, Dec 20: The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) has categorically dismissed recent claims linking eggs to cancer risk, terming them “misleading, scientifically unsupported and capable of creating unnecessary public alarm”.

In a statement issued on Saturday, the food safety regulator clarified that eggs available in the country are safe for human consumption and that reports alleging the presence of carcinogenic substances in eggs lack a scientific basis.

The clarification comes in response to media reports and social media posts claiming detection of nitrofuran metabolites (AOZ) — substances purportedly linked to cancer — in eggs sold in India.

FSSAI officials emphasised that the use of nitrofurans is strictly prohibited at all stages of poultry and egg production under the Food Safety and Standards (Contaminants, Toxins and Residues) Regulations, 2011.

The regulator explained that an Extraneous Maximum Residue Limit (EMRL) of 1.0 µg/kg has been prescribed for nitrofuran metabolites — but solely for regulatory enforcement purposes. This limit represents the minimum level that can be reliably detected by advanced laboratory methods and does not indicate that the substance is permitted for use.

“Detection of trace residues below the EMRL does not constitute a food safety violation nor does it imply any health risk,” an FSSAI official said.

FSSAI said India’s regulatory framework is aligned with international practices. The European Union and the United States also prohibit the use of nitrofurans in food-producing animals and employ reference points for action or guideline values only as enforcement tools.

Differences in numerical benchmarks across countries reflect variations in analytical and regulatory approaches, not differences in consumer safety standards, the authority noted.

On public health concerns, FSSAI cited scientific evidence indicating that there is no established causal link between trace-level dietary exposure to nitrofuran metabolites and cancer or other adverse health outcomes in humans.

“No national or international health authority has associated normal egg consumption with increased cancer risk,” the regulator reiterated.

Addressing reports related to the testing of a specific egg brand, officials explained that such detections are isolated and batch-specific, often arising from inadvertent contamination or feed-related factors, and are not representative of the overall egg supply chain in the country.

“Generalising isolated laboratory findings to label eggs as unsafe is scientifically incorrect,” the statement said.

FSSAI urged consumers to rely on verified scientific evidence and official advisories, reiterating that eggs remain a safe, nutritious, and valuable component of a balanced diet when produced and consumed in compliance with food safety regulations.
