Abstract: Due to its growing
prevalence, juvenile crime has become a major issue in modern society,
garnering attention from psychological, social, and legal standpoints. This
study examines the link between the increase in juvenile delinquency and the
growing impact of drug use among adolescents using analytical methodology.
Among the main causes of this occurrence, the study examines peer pressure,
socioeconomic difficulties, inadequate parental supervision, and exposure to
drug culture. The trends and nature of offenses committed under the influence
of narcotic drugs are highlighted in this research through an examination of data
from field interviews, rehabilitation facilities, and juvenile justice records.
Additionally, it examines the psychological and behavioral effects of drug use
on adolescents, which contribute to impulsivity, aggressiveness, and repeated
offenses. Additionally, the study analyzes current legislative frameworks and
rehabilitation strategies designed to promote prevention and reintegration. To
address this twin threat, the data emphasizes the critical need for
comprehensive intervention strategies that include community participation,
drug education, and reforms to juvenile justice. The goal of this study is to
help foster a more knowledgeable policy conversation and the successful
application of preventative strategies.
