A 62‑year‑old woman completed a 3,000‑km cycling trek from Andhra Pradesh to Delhi as part of the Nasha Mukth Bharat campaign, raising awareness about drug abuse.
A 62‑year‑old woman from Andhra Pradesh has finished a 3,000‑kilometre cycling journey to Delhi, marking a milestone for the Nasha Mukth Bharat anti‑drug campaign.
The cyclist, who began her trip in early March, averaged about 80 kilometres a day, covering the distance in roughly 40 days. She faced hot weather, rough roads and occasional mechanical issues, but received support from local volunteers and traffic police along the route.
Her trek aims to draw public attention to the dangers of drug addiction and to inspire people of all ages to adopt a drug‑free lifestyle. The campaign has already gathered thousands of social‑media shares and has prompted several state‑level authorities to pledge additional resources.
The Nasha Mukth Bharat initiative encourages citizens to participate in similar endurance events, and organisers are planning a nationwide series of rides to reinforce the message of sobriety across India.
