Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh has sought technical support from Facebook and Google to combat the drug menace prevalent among the youth of the state. In his letters addressed to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Google's Sundar Pichai, Singh said the Internet is ripe with content about finding newer ways of drug addiction. He sought their help in limiting the spread of those materials.

"I will knock on every door and leave no stone unturned to ensure we eliminate drugs from Punjab. I wrote to @google CEO @sundarpichai and @facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to extend and provide technology support in fighting this menace. We look forward to their help," Singh said in a tweet. In his letter to Zuckerberg, he said, "We realize that technology now forms a larger part of the youth's lives and they are deeply influenced by what they see, hear and consume."
