Kerala’s Silent Epidemic: Synthetic Drugs Surge Past Punjab | Families, Schools, Society at Risk

Описание: Kerala, once hailed for its backwaters and Ayurveda, is now grappling with a dark and dangerous transformation—a synthetic drug epidemic that's spiraling out of control.

In 2024, Kerala reported more drug-related cases than Punjab, marking a disturbing shift. Substances like MDMA, LSD, and meth are not just present—they’re everywhere: in schools, colleges, and urban neighborhoods, tearing through the state’s social fabric.

From parents buying drug test kits for their children to an alarming rise in narcotics-linked murders, the signs are unmistakable. What was once a whisper about drug use in Kerala is now a scream of crisis.

This report dives into the stories behind the stats—the lives impacted, the families broken, and the institutions struggling to cope. It also explores what Kerala is doing—and failing to do—in its fight against this modern menace.
