युवाओं में नशाखोरी की बढ़ती प्रवृति बेहद चिंताजनक है। नशाखोरी के कारण नई पीढ़ी का जीवन अंधकारमय हो रहा है तथा परिवारों की आर्थिक स्थिति भी बद से बदतर होती जा रही है। नशे के कारण अनेक युवा असमय काल कलवित हो रहे है, जो कि अत्यंत दुःखदायी है।
Bikaner, before the 15th Century, was known by the name of Jangladesh and was under the rule of Rajputs. In 1486, Rao Bika, a Rajput ruler, built this place. The place where Rao Bika wanted to build it belonged to a Nehra Jat who got ready to give the land to the king, only if the name of the place would be linked to his name, to which the king agreed. Hence, the name of the place was kept Bikaner.
Rao Bika, being the first son of Rao Jodha, wanted to build his own kingdom and hence, built the present day Bikaner. Since Bikaner was in the middle of the Thar desert, it served as an oasis and was on the trade route between Gujarat coast and Central Asia.
Bika also built a fort in this region in 1478 AD. The fort is famous by the name of Junagarh Fort.
