The Anti Narcotics Cell of the Mumbai crime branch launched the campaign on April 29 to spread awareness about the drug menace.

During the performance, police personnel distribute pamphlets on the drug menace.
A tweet about the campaign by the city police`s Twitter handle elicited praise from several Bollywood celebrities.
