Filmmaker Hansal Mehta has called for decriminalisation of marijuana consumption in the country.

In a tweet, he said that many other countries have already made using marijuana legal.

Hansal further added that in India marijuana's consumption is used more for harassment than for narcotics control.

A movement like the one to abolish sec 377 is necessary to end this continuing travesty.

Mehta’s demand came amid the ongoing drug case involving superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan who is currently in jail.

The star kid's final bail plea will be heard on October 20 after he was arrested in a cruise ship drug raid along with other accused.
