Punjab state assembly elections are drawing near, but the state’s crucial problem – the drug epidemic – remains.

While the AAP and the Congress have vowed to fight drug problems in the state, the ruling SAD government continues to deny it.

Will the elections bring about a difference in the state?

The Quint asks Mintu Gursariya, a former drug addict and now a citizen journalist, what’s his take on Punjab’s drug problem and his hopes on the new government.
