Kerala fails to curb drug trafficking, promotes foreign Zumba against drugs: Pro-RSS

Thiruvananthapuram, June 30 (UNI) Kerala Government, which has miserably failed to dismantle the drug smuggling networks bringing narcotics into the State, is promoting foreign culture by introducing 'Zumba' dance in schools under the guise of an anti-drug campaign, according to the pro-RSS Bharatheeya Vichara Kendram, here today.
“Forcing school students to practice Zumba, a foreign commodity, under the guise of an anti-drug campaign is a malicious move aimed at denying opportunities to Kerala’s traditional physical education instructors and widely accepted yoga trainers,” Bharatheeya Vichara Kendram Director R Sanjayan said in a statement.
“Instead of dismantling the drug smuggling networks that supply narcotics to Kerala, the Left Government continues to stage public spectacles by arresting only the victims of drug abuse,” he pointed out.
