Hi everyone,

I think smoking can be permanently banned by us only because the government has to deal with so many other problems related to the workers, their unemployment, revenues as they make GDP of the country.

We all know "Healthy mind lives in a healthy body" only. So this has to be our personal decision. Besides this, if the government make laws to ban it completely, then there should have some more laws to take action against it. And a long list of defaulters along with cases. Funny as it sounds but Indian courts do not need more pending cases.

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.

Hi. This is Dhananjay.

In my view, It shouldn't be banned. We have a constitution, where one point describes the human right. It's up-to them. There must be a reason behind their smoking. May b sm1s passion. Or someone gets relaxation. Whatever. All the smokers know the harmful effects of smoking. Still, they are doing.

So. Let them decide. If they want to kill themselves. Then no1 can save him. If you will ban it. Then there is no guarantee. That he will not try to do such things. As a friend. We can suggest them with full of heart.

Thank you.

Smoking should be banned in India or anywhere in globe. Smoking as cigarettes contain 200 chemicals which harms our body and passive smoking leads to various respiratory disease to others. Banning of smoking is not possible because it will lead to another options of drugs of many of people which can lead to another problem. Govt on its parts had banned smoking in public places and also imposing more tax on tobacco and cigarettes to discourage the people for smoking. But it will not make any difference until the people who smokes should quit it.

Yes. It is a great bane to the society. Inspire of the views provided by members that it provides employment and c plus, the government need look at food and health and c, even so, these things take away the main income and revenue of the people, the society and people employed only contribute to an unwholesome livelihood which will bring bad results soon. Halting the manufacturemanufacture and sale plus import of all smoke related products plus encourage people to finding and following wholesome ways and practising meditation is the wise way.

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.

Hi friends,

In my mind smoking should be banned because it is a dangerous addiction in India. Many people die and give their life in this dangerous consumption. They consume it for relief and enjoyment.

But it should not be completely banned because many people have employment in these industries. If they are banned then unemployment in India will increase. Their families will have to starve for food. So if smoking is banned then the government should go with a proper plan and we should prevent ourselves from smoking.

Thank you!

Hi, Generally smoking is 5 times higher among men with womens. Nowadays 20% of peoples are smoked in all over world. But they can understand with causes of smoking, . Suddenly we can't stop it but step by step can bane of smoking, and now childrens are also smoked. So the goverment are conducted awareness programs in schools and collages. The smoking is injurious to health slogans in moves or public places can't change with bane of smoking, so every one realised with causes of smoking. Every changes are difficult but possible.

Hello,

We all know that smoking is very dangerous to us and our family members but instead of this maximum population of India especially youth like to smoke. Even teenagers are also doing this habit. According to the report, more than 85% of the Indian population have this habit and about 30000 people die every year. So smoking should be banned in India and it also has an unnecessary burden on one's Pocket. Due to which his family is totally disturbed.

I think these are the best reasons for banning of cigarettes in India.

We all know that smoking is injurious for health but our society is using as usual as we want. Our government gains so much revenue on that thing that is why our government can not ban completely. Many families are reaching the very worst condition because of smoking such type of things. Smoking makes a person internally very weak. According to me, people should self-aware on that because people is also responsible for itself's pros and cons also. People should try to avoid that type of things and think about themselves.
