According to me TV commercial shouldn't be banned, but we have to premise for censorship. As TV advertisement aware us about the new products came in market. But we have also consider that some TV commercial mislead people by providing wrong info about their product and some provide sexual content which is not good for children and teenager. So in these cases we have to premise for censorship.

Hi friends,

Advertisement is the only way of communication between the company and its customers.

According to me advantages of ads overshadows its disadvantages. Many informative ads like Polio, tobacco ill effects, rural development are being featured on television, which provides those information which a layman would not be knowing but, is beneficial for them.

And I don't agree that ads can mislead customers as ads just gives you insight about the product, it does not forces you to buy that product or avail that service and customer's are not so foolish that they will follow the ad blindly.

So, banning the ads is no solution. It's just customers should choose wisely that which product they should buy after watching it's advertisement.

Thanks.

According to me advertisements have lots of importance in our lives. Advertisments acts like a medium through which the public can get aware about the new products, upcoming products and the offers.

Many advertisements are highly objectionable because they undermine values and ethics. Vulgar advertisements offend public decency and encourage materialism in the society. Another objection is that advertising influences the mind of public.

It creates the desire and taste for new products which are not actually necessities of life and income of consumers will not let them enjoy. Advertising may thus be regarded as the cause of unrequited desire which may result in unhappiness.

I think advertisements are a business trying to get money. As anyone would do. Its how society works. People want to be successful and to be successful you have to have a product that works. Weather the product is good or not they should have an advertisement to see if they really can have a successful product. Its worth a try and even if the product is bad. It doesn't matter because you then know to just ignore it.

The word advertisement. Simply everyone thinks it is way to enhance better character of something else to public so in order to have its publicity and profit in goods and materials that deals with advertisement. Meanwhile, advertisement should not based on profitable. Therefore, advertise are nowadays are based on profit and moreover if in case advertisement are release to public it should define usage as well as defects after use it so that people can comfortably use with its caution using.

Advertisements cheat people. It is a fact. Anyone disagree? Ban on advertisements should be a separate discussion. But needs a control over it. False claims, Hidden conditions are definitely part of the advertisements these days.
