💨 Abstract

The Tripura government has launched 18 opioid substitution therapy (OST) centers to rehabilitate people suffering from substance abuse, inspired by Punjab's successful model. The initiative, jointly implemented by the West Tripura district administration and Tripura State Aids Control Society, provides counselling and medical treatment. The state-funded centers aim to rehabilitate victims of the growing drug abuse problem.
