I am just referring", he said while addressing state youth parliament organized by legislature Secretariat, Porvorim in Goa.

Parrikar also discussed topics ranging from drugs,ganja to Porn. Narrating a story of his years in IIT-Mumbai, he said he knew of a small groupinvolved in Ganja during his campus years.

He then went on to talk about the crackdown on drug peddlers in the state and how it will continue to remove drugs from the state.
