Should Smoking be Banned Completely?

Hello friends,

In my view, there should a ban on smoking as it is harmful not only to the person consuming it but also to passive smokers (indirect smokers). The main reason behind not putting a ban is that the government gets revenue from the sale of cigarettes. Irrespective of showing in advertisements the long lasting effect of smoking, people still use it as a source of refreshment. But I think smoking cannot be completely banned as the real effort should come from public by quitting it. The government has made efforts to increase the rate of tax on tobacco, cigarettes to discourage the usage. Complete ban is not possible as levying restrictions may result in people resorting to drugs, which is again a headache for government as even students are addicts.

So in conclusion, the real effort should be from the part of public to get rigid of this cancer causing smoke.

Thank you.

According to my point of view, smoking should be ban, here it's not about money it's about someone life which is destroying these days.

And it also not about that particular person but all family member who is connected with him.

It may be possible there is only one person who is feeding their family but due to this, he had no more life.

Its seem logically cool that it shouldn't be banned because of revenue but when it comes to us personally then we come to know about the importance of life. Youth is more addicted towards tobacco which is the big question mark about our future of India.

Yes, it should be banned, and there must not be any issues of violation of rights of freedom of an individual since constitution provides rights of freedom keeping in view that the freedom should not harm other's freedom or proves deadly to them.

Hello friends,

According to my opinion, smoking should not be completely banned but there should be some restriction on smokers.

Friends we know that in today's time smoking is coming up like as a fashion which can be dangerous for us.

We often see that a boy has not completed 18 is smoking in a park or on a side of road. That boy does not know the side effects of smoking but he is smoking to show up and with a few times this became a habit for him and after that even he wants he cannot leave. So there should be some age restriction that a seller would not sell smoking element to a person who is below 18 and if he will do so then there should be a fine.

Another thing is that friends there are no hard rules for them who smoke in public place. If someone caught smoking on a bus or train he got free with only 100 or 500 rs. But there should be a rule of prison for that person of 1 day, 2 days or even 1 week also.

Thank you.

Smoking should be banned because it doesn't harm only the person smoke's but also harms the people around, it deteriorates the health of the smoker and its surrounding by polluting the environment.

Hello friends.

In my opinion, if we will ban smoking completely it will bring chaos in the country.

Our first aim is to reduce the numbers of smokers by different means. If the number of smokers will be less then it will easier to ban smoking.

Smoking has become a trend in society.

And everyone wants to follow it.

I personally think smoking is bad for everyone, even though it has a couple good reasons.

Hello dear, what should I say everybody knows smoking should be banned completely. But the question is that is smoking banned completely and I think answer should be no. We don't need to discuss this because we know everything about smoking so, we need to take one step forward to quit this. I know this is not easy, but slowly slowly we can make our country smoke freedom and our country will be on top position on smoking free country list.

I think that smoking should be banned completely because there is a lot of people that have health problems. Soon then the whole world will be polluted because of smoking. It's bad for your health.

Good morning friends,

First of all, I would like to thanks to all my friends for their wonderful experience. I completely agree with this topic that smoking should be banned completely. But not very instant. It should be banned but in a very slow process because it will lead to addiction of other products that are more harmful than cigrattes. In India all of us know that instantly ban leads to strikes also. Smoking cause lungs and throat cancer and also it makes tar in lungs which leads to death also.

It is a duty of public also to quit this because they don't think while smoking that what affects their family after his death. It not only affects the smokers but also affects the people who are nearby.

So govt should aware the public about the bad effects of smoking and should increase the price of cigrattes, tobacco and all.

Thank you.
