Moments of candid advice and lively curiosity filled the room as Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu sat down for an interactive session with students at PM SHRI Government Model Senior Secondary School, Tissa, in Chamba district. Answering questions across all grade levels, he urged young learners to embrace hard work, make fearless decisions, and stay courageous when chasing their ambitions. When Class 12 student Tamanna asked about making tough choices, the Chief Minister shared that history is made by those who act without fear. The exchange sparked with diverse queries—fourth-grader Apeksha Bhardwaj asked about his favorite school subject, Jeevani asked about his daily routine, Monika raised concerns on anti-drug initiatives, and Muskan sought insights on upgrading state school infrastructure. Prajwal expressed gratitude for the school’s new CBSE affiliation, while CM Sukhu specifically inspired young girls to step forward and lead across education, sports, and politics.
Following the engaging Q&A, the focus shifted to the school grounds, where Chief Minister Sukhu flagged off an enthusiastic anti-chitta walkathon. Joined by a large turnout of students marching with banners, the rally aimed to spread widespread public awareness against substance abuse. Addressing the gathering, the Chief Minister declared a zero-tolerance policy against drug mafias in Himachal Pradesh, highlighting strict measures including the confiscation of traffickers’ properties. He emphasized that combating drug abuse is a shared societal duty and urged citizens to report peddlers anonymously via helpline 112. Concluding his visit, CM Sukhu backed his commitment to local education by sanctioning a ₹3 crore grant for a new science laboratory and additional classrooms at Bairagarh School, following welcome remarks from Principal Ghanshyam.
