According to me, it should be completely banned smoking in India. Because smoking is kill a person within short period of time or infected some health problems long time. Smoking activities affected not only smoking person but also neighbour person also. Being more parents took a smoke inside the house, it seeing children can try make a smoke stylishely. It is affected their children also. Government take various strict actions for reducing the smoking but not enough result would occur. So, banning completely will protect people from harmful effects.

Yes, smoking should be banned completely. Human being life is very much affected due to smoking its causes cancer, pollution in the environment and other dangerous diseases. Govt needs to run awareness programs in all parts of the country. Not in the country but in the whole world. It is a worldwide problem affecting our environment, earth and life of other living beings. It should be banned completely.

According to my opinion, smoking should be banned completely in India as we all know about the side effects of smoking, it is not only causing harm to the smoker but the person standing next to the smoker is also getting harmed from this, see already we are breathing a whole lot of polluted air in our lungs and smoking makes it worst, lung capacity will be reduced due to smoking, it can lead to cancer but nowadays in youth generation it has become a status of swag.

Yes, it should be banned completely. Everyone is aware of the health-related hazards caused by smoking. The argument for its continuation according to me comes as totally baseless. There are thousands of avenues to generate income and employment for people other than cigarette production. And then nothing is more valuable than life. Yes, banning it also won't be easy as people who are addicted to smoking would find it hard to leave the addiction behind. The Government needs to start with wide-spread awareness campaigns and distribution of addiction replacing adhesives. So, in the end, smoking must be completely banned and in place of it, good habits should be promoted.

Smoking shouldn't be banned completely. I totally agree it has many side effects, there are many other things which also had side effects. Like oil used on the roadside in restaurants. Water which is used in many shady hotels. Govt should 1st look after health and food Dept. Also, tobacco products give employment to many people in India.
Not only in India, but all over the world, if it gets banned completely all of sudden. What will those family do? They could put age restriction to 21 or to 25.

According to me, smoking should not be completely banned in India. Any instant decision leads to an imbalance in the society. Tobacco industry generates a large no. Of employment. As well as it is a great source of revenue for the government. This generated revenue is then used for the building of infrastructure, providing healthcare facilities for free of cost and many more things. Banning of this industry completely will result in loss of employment which will then impact the lives of many people. For eg: we can see the result of banning alcohol in Bihar. The government faced a huge loss in its fiscal and so no improvement in infrastructure can be seen in the past years. So instead of banning it completely, the government should take other measures to spread awareness among the people. It can set an age bar for smoking as well as set the limit for no of cigarette packets a person can buy monthly. The government Should 1st think about the various ways of generating employment and then eventually ban these tobacco industries.

No, smoking should not be banned but a rule should be made by govt that only a certain point of cigarettes will be Sold by retailers, in this way some point of smoking will decrease. And smoking is not only reason for cancer, there are so many people I have seen who are not smoking or drinking still they are caught by cancer which is very unusual and in the pvt sector the work pressure is very much, so to reduce stress people are smoking, which is not bad, banning cigarettes is not a solution, instead it should lessen. That's all friends.

Yes smoking must be banned completely. It is not harmful for those people who smoke, it is harmful for those people who resides around them as well. Companies warn the customers that smoking causes cancer. But no body bother about it. It takes the life away from the consumer gradually. And one day they left family behind to cry. It does not spoil the life of cigarette consumer but the life of dependent on them.

Yes, it should be banned but slowly not instantly because those people who are addicted not to give up easily they take some time. We know smoking is very injurious to health, it causes lot of diseases such as cancer, lungs disease etc, smoking not only kill the people but also kill hopes and dreams. Smoking is very dangerous it's not affected the one people who is smoker but also affected those people who are nearby. When you ask any smoker to why you are are smoking ? They give me several reason such as decreased tiredness, increase freshness, releive stress and many other reason but.
They don't know smoking is not a solution. So government try to banned completely, they try to increased the awareness about smoking which is very injurious to health.
