Today, 15 November, "Silk Road" International University of Tourism and Cultural Heritage hosted a promotional event on " Resisting the illegal handling of psychotropic substances" with the cooperation of representatives of the regional IAB and a number of relevant services.

It is no secret that today in our society there are cases of use of psychotropic substances among young people and their involvement in their illegal handling. At the event, the responsible officer of the regional Department of Internal Affairs voiced information about these negative cases occurring among young people in our republic and in Samarkand province.

At the propaganda event, students addressed the officials with their questions in the form of sincere open dialogue. Also at the event a prepared video clip was shown about illegal handling of psychotropic substances, about unknowingly involving young people in such situations.

The purpose of this outreach event is to prevent such negative situations that may arise between students and young people and to build immunity among young people.
