The Quit India Movement began for a free India and today is the beginning of a quit drugs movement in the state, he said.
The MP claimed that the drug menace was engulfing the youth of the state at a fast pace and there was a dire need to curb this menace.
The 'Haarega Nasha, Jeetega Himachal' aims at engaging the youth in order to address this serious concern and create widespread awareness about the ill-effects of drugs, he said.
"The initiative will empower the youth by entrusting them with the task of building a new Himachal Pradesh. In order to do so, the youth will be appointed as the champions of the campaign," the MP said.
