Addiction Treatment Facility District Hospital Pulwama-ATF-Pulwama Avenues for treatment of substance use disorders (’addictions’) in District. About 350-odd IRCAs are functional during the year 2019-20.

It is now established that India has a huge problem of substance use disorders (or addictions). Number of people who need help for harmful use or dependence on alcohol and other drugs run into crores, as shown in the recent report – Magnitude of Substance Use in India. Only a miniscule proportion of these are able to access treatment services indicating a wide treatment gap. India is a signatory to (a) the three International Drug Conventions of United Nations, (b) the United Nations General Assembly Special Session (outcome document) as well as a host of other international instruments. Thus, Government of India is obliged to provide adequate coverage with treatment services to all the citizens affected by substance use disorders. Providing treatment to people affected by addiction is the mandate of two ministries of Government of India: Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment (MoSJE), which is the nodal ministry for drug demand reduction and Ministry of Health and Family Welfare (MoH&FW). So far, the MoH&FW has been providing treatment services through the Government Health care facilities (Central government / state governments), while the MoSJE has been providing these services through the civil society organizations / Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). Under the Scheme of MoSJE, NGOs receive Grant-in-aid for running Integrated Rehabilitation Centre for Addicts (IRCAs). In order to further enhance the avenues for drug demand reduction in the country, MoSJE has launched an ambitious “National Action Plan for Drug Demand Reduction (NAPDDR).’ Among the many components of NAPDDR is one under which MoSJE envisages financial assistance to Government Health Care facilities for providing treatment services for substance use disorders. For this purpose, MoSJE has requested NDDTC, AIIMS to coordinate the scheme at the National level, for establishing Addiction Treatment Facilities (ATFs) in government health care facilities, in a phased manner in collaboration with other medical institutions. This document provides implementation framework of this scheme.

Dear friends,
Youth is the energy of any nation and the power of youth has an important contribution in the development of society and country. Therefore, it is very important that maximum number of youth join the drug free India campaign. Accepting this challenge of the country, today we unite under the Nasha Mukt Bharat Abhiyan and take a pledge that not only the community, family, friends, but also ourselves will be drug free because change should start with ourselves.
So let us all together take a firm decision to make our district Pulwama Jammu and Kashmir drug-free.
I pledge that I will do everything possible to the best of my ability to make my country drug-free.

Jai Hind!
