RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday expressed concern over the use of synthetic drug ice in educational institutions, saying there were seven million drug addicts in Pakistan.

Emphasizing on the collective responsibility of the society to fight against the menace of narcotics, the prime minister said they would together fight the cancer of drugs in the society as they had to protect their youth.



The prime minister said the strength of the Anti-Narcotics Force would be enhanced and the supportive ministries would play their due role for drug control.
