Germany has become the largest country in the European Union to legalize the use of cannabis.
Despite stiff opposition from the opposition and medical associations, the approval has come into effect from April 1, 2024.
In Germany, people over the age of 18 are allowed to possess 25 grams of dry cannabis, according to a new law.
Along with this, it has also been allowed that people can grow three cannabis plants at their home. The move has led the German health minister to take the consumption of cannabis out of the "realm of taboo".
