Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Alyas Khan inaugurated the “Maharana Pratap Run 2026” on Sunday, in Ramban as part of the ongoing 100-day ‘Nasha Mukt Jammu and Kashmir Abhiyan.’ This event was primarily organised by the Shri Amar Kshatriya Rajput Sabha Ramban in partnership with the Pahari Sports Academy Ramban. The marathon aimed to promote fitness and awareness regarding substance abuse in the region.

The competition attracted numerous participants, highlighting local engagement in community health initiatives. Following the event, Balwinder Singh, who secured first place in the Men’s 3-kilometre marathon, shared his enthusiasm about the win and stressed the importance of avoiding substance abuse. Singh, an experienced competitor at the national and state levels, encouraged residents to prioritise fitness and refrained from using intoxicants, which he deemed harmful to health.

Soon after his victory, Singh remarked on the significance of the marathon, stating, “Today, I participated in a marathon held at the Ramban. I am delighted to have secured first place in this 3-kilometre run.” He reiterated that participation in sports fosters both physical and mental well-being among the youth.

Deputy Commissioner Highlights Campaign Significance

During the event, Deputy Commissioner Mohammad Alyas Khan emphasised the importance of the ‘Nasha Mukt Jammu and Kashmir Abhiyan,’ which is aiming to eliminate substance abuse in the Union Territory. He mentioned that several awareness programs related to the initiative are being conducted throughout the Ramban district, including the Maharana Pratap Run 2026, which serves a dual purpose of promoting fitness and raising awareness.

Khan remarked, “The 100-day ‘Nasha Mukt Abhiyan’ is being held in J&K. In the same context, various programmes are also being organised in the Ramban district.” He expressed his optimism that through increased participation from the youth and various civil society organisations, the district could be transformed into a drug-free zone.

The Deputy Commissioner also pointed out that the grassroots participation of local organisations and citizens in this campaign is crucial. His statement included a belief that as awareness increases and more individuals engage in activities like the marathon, the impact on the community would be significant.

Community Response and Future Prospects

The local community has reportedly welcomed this initiative, recognising its potential benefits. Efforts like the Maharana Pratap Run 2026 are seen as vital steps toward a healthier lifestyle and drugs-free Jammu and Kashmir. The collaboration between organisations and the administration has demonstrated a unified approach towards tackling substance abuse issues.

Local residents are encouraged to partake in such events, bolstering not only their own fitness but also contributing to the larger goal of a substance-free environment. The emphasis on sports and awareness creates a platform for ongoing discussions about health and wellness in the region.

The event is indicative of a broader movement within Jammu and Kashmir aimed at addressing pressing social issues through community activities. With ongoing commitment and awareness, officials hope to realise a vision of holistic health and well-being for the district and its inhabitants.
