Nanded: Students should stay away from drugs, discourage their friends from substance abuse, strictly follow traffic rules and use the Dial 112 emergency service whenever necessary, a senior official said on Wednesday.
Speaking at an awareness event at Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University here, he also cautioned students about the growing risks associated with excessive social media use, cybercrime and threats emerging through digital platforms.

Another official urged women to remain aware of their legal rights and called upon students to promote awareness about women's safety and relevant laws in their communities.
