Charas

Charas is a type of hashish, which is a kind of drug that people use to feel happy, relaxed, or to get high. Charas is made from a plant called cannabis, which is also known as marijuana or weed.

To make charas, people take the sticky resin, which is found on the leaves of the cannabis plant, and they rub it off with their hands. It looks kind of like brown or black tar, and it has a strong smell.

Once they collect enough resin, they roll it into a ball, put it in a bag, and then press it down with a weight. The weight squeezes out all of the excess resin and moisture, leaving behind a hard block of charas.

People can smoke charas in different ways, like putting it in a pipe, rolling it into a joint, or using a bong. When they smoke it, they inhale the smoke, which carries the chemicals from the cannabis plant into their body, making them feel different.

However, it is important to note that drugs are not safe for kids or young people. They can damage the body and brain, and can be very dangerous. It's best to stay away from these substances until you're older and more responsible.
