25 August 2021, Putki (Dhanbad): With support of NBJK & Jamnalal Bajaj Foundation-Mumbai, Dhanbad district unit of Lok Samiti has organized a convention upon Liquor Prohibition at Shramik Club. This was inaugurated by Mr. Girija Satish (President, National Lok Samiti).

The president of National Lok Samiti demanded to ban liquor across India and declared that like in Bihar, we will campaign stepwise to make Jharkhand free from alcohol.

Mrs. Sundari Mahto (Chairperson, Nasha Unmoolan Mahila Samiti) has supported liquor prohibition activities by Lok Samiti and referred about many families shattered because of this all-time evil. Also Mr. Kaushal Ganesh Azad (National Coordinator, Lok Samiti), Mrs. Meena Bagi, Mrs. Anjali, Mr. Shankar Rana (Coordinator, Jharkhand State Lok Samiti), Mr. Umesh S. Usha, Mr. Jaykishan, Dr. R. K.

Nayimuddin Ansari, Mrs. Nitu Singh, Mr. Baleshwar Bauri, Mrs. Dipanjali, Mrs. Basanti Goswami, Mrs. Mahzabin Parveen, Mr. Shankar Napit and Mr. Sudarshan Saw have placed their viewpoints and opposed alcohol.

The program was chaired by Mr. Abdul Hamid Ansari (President, Dhanbad District Lok Samiti) and Mr. Shankar Rawani (General Secretary, DDLS) anchored the proceeding. More than 100 people have joined the convention and supported to oust liquor from Jharkhand.
