Parthvi: Nai yaar… aditi theek nahi hai…usko e-cigratte aur alchohol lene ki aadat ho gai hai
aur ab uski health suffer kar rahi hai. Kal to maine jab phone kiya use, to khaas khaas ke
bura haal tha….
Aditi- to kya ho gaya? Mera bada bhai bhi karta hai vape, pata nhi tujhe, use dhua ni hota,
wo nuksaam ni deti..
Parthvi- E-cigarette main maujood liquid, nicotine jalata nahi hai, isliye isse dhooan nahin
nikalta, lekin wo cigarette jitni he nuksan Dayak hoti hai…
Nukkad(shranya)- Research ke anusar,
Kisi bhi nashele padarth ka istamal, jaise, cigarrete, vape/ e-cigarete, alcohol, ityadi; yuva ke
badte hue brain aur dimag ke vikas ko prabhavit karta hai.
Nukkad(Parthvi)- yuva jo alcohol ya koi aur nashele padarth ko ek ya do baar istamal karte
hai, unmain se assi pratishat (80%) yuva nashi ke addi/ addict ho jate hain.
Un addicted youth main se lagbhag (50 %) pachas pratishat yuva ko koi health issue hota
hai; ya dimag ke vikas pe galat prabhav padta hai.
Nukkad(Aditi)- Vape kisi bhi aur nashele padarth ki tarha he addictive aur harmful huti hai.
Nashele padarth ya addictive substances sharab se leke cigarrete aur baki illegal drugs tak,
sabhi ka sevan, addiction ka shikar bana sakta hai.
vidooshi- Isliye, ek swasth aur khushal jeevan ke liye aao milke ye than le…
Parthvi: ho kuch bhi karan ab, doston ka ho dabav ya haalat na ho apne anusar, na lenge
sahara nashe ka, phir ho wo chahe kisi bhi roop ka.
Aditi: Swasth sharer hai khushal aur safal jeevan ka aadhar,
Shranya: Chalo, mil ke lelen pran ye aaj, doori nibhake nashe ki duniya se, rahenge kareeb
swasthya aur khushi se.
