Introduction
Addiction is one of the most pressing health challenges in India today. In metropolitan areas like Kolkata and industrial hubs such as Howrah, the problem of alcohol and drug dependency has grown steadily, affecting families, workplaces, and communities. Recognizing this urgent need, Sarathi Welfare Trust, under the guidance of Dr. Arghya Bandhu (MD Psychiatrist), has established a compassionate and professional Nasha Mukti Kendra to help individuals reclaim their lives.
