Advertisments, are the source of communication between the producers and consumers. They are more usful to us, than harmful. It is only through ads we come to know the about the products which are avaliable in market, they help us in making proper choices of any product which suits our requirement and also comes under our budget.
Besides the commercial ads, ads which tells us about govrnment schemes and policies, banking schemes, hospitals with modern treatment facilities etc are useful for one and all.
So according to me, ads should not be banned, instead consumers should not get completely lured by the ads, they should be alert while buying, and make sensible choices.

Hi friends.
Most advertisements and advertisers make totally false and tall claims, which is far from reality. And they call it creativity. It is nothing but lying and society tacitly grown to accept it. If the strict definition of "cheating" is taken, as is commonly defined in most countries across the world, then most advertisers and the companies would have to be put behind bars for the offence.

In my views advertisement should not be banned it is useful to us that we are getting aware of the product or other things.

Hello friends,
My opinion is not to ban the advertisements because they are the medium which makes us know the new products availability in the market. Instead of showing the features in advertisements it should rather focus, how the product is helpful to the user.
Coming to the case there may be only a few companies which make the false advertisements. Instead of believing in the false advertisements make sure about the product before having the product.

The advertisement is good because it gave us information.
But some times they are not true.
Sometimes they say half true.
For example, they hire 10 doctors and 9 of them to confirm their products then they say 90% of doctor confirm this subject.

To accede to above statement will be like giving green signal to 'playing safe' inspite of taking risks. Advertisements are made so as to make people familiar with the product and simultaneously competing with other brands of the same product.
In doing so a company may accentuate more on its positive impacts but that nowhere implies it is cheating on people. But if advertisements are banned people will not come to know about the existence of things that will make their lives simpler and better. Consumers if feel cheated then they can always raise their voice against violation of consumer rights and can seek justice !

Advertisement and marketing has became essential part for not only for profit organisation but also for non profit organisation. Without advertisement both consumer and organisation will suffer as consumers may not be aware about companies latest product, services or any discount policies. Mere because some of the advertisers cheated consumer it doesn't make any sense for banning it. Also consumer needs to be cautious about company's brand equity, its past performance etc.

To my mind I agree with that people only they are saying that add. Is good for society. Because add is the thing that gives the knowledge about the products and things and also now a days its provide the awareness about the politics. And so on just thing like that if add are banned so when that people are open the new class shop etc how to that promote them.

Appear advertisements on TV screen are good instead they have their cross line as children mostly get affected by advertisement. They insisted parents to have same products as they got on TV screen. They don't know the pros and con's of them limelight of advertisement attracts them.
So as per I concerned then celebrity should know their limits to explore on TV world.
