Hello everyone,
Today, our topic is that Tobacco must be banned. Yes or No.
It's not a small thing to ban or not. On one hand, tobacco is harmful to health, and someone addicted to tobacco spoils their life, and their family also suffers from their addiction. Nowadays, most of the young stars are also addicted. So, in this hand, the government regulates tobacco. To give conditions to a wine or tobacco shop, don't give the tobacco for under 30 years people.
On the other hand, to ban tobacco, tobacco farmer are hopelessly losing their employment. So, my suggestion is government give some instructions or regulations to the people on to use of tobacco.

Hello everyone!
From my perspective, the government should ban tobacco. Nowadays, youngsters are consuming tobacco for joy and happiness; they don't know the serious consequences and impacts of consuming tobacco.
So, strictly prohibited for those under 18 and takes severe action if they consume tobacco. The government should spread awareness to people who consume tobacco. Most people are deeply addicted to smoking. We have one life. So, live happily and healthily. Our country has become tobacco-free. It will save all families' lives. #Stay Healthier and Happier.
Thank you.

Hi everyone.
Let's further discuss this topic, whether tobacco is banned or not.
In my opinion, banning tobacco is not a great solution because it plays a major role in our GDP. And about the tax rate, it is already very high. This part goes to the government and, in other ways, benefits the people through pensions and so on. I also add one thing, the government should add such compliances like CSR initiatives for every tobacco manufacturing for the welfare of people. This must be strictly followed; if not, your licenses will be revoked, and you will be unable to conduct such business in the future.

According to me, tobacco should definitely be banned because it is extremely dangerous for our health. Not only the person who smokes, but even the people around them suffer due to passive smoking, which is equally harmful.
Some participants mentioned the economic impact of banning tobacco. But I believe that if people are not healthy or do not even have a life, then economy and growth become meaningless.
Instead of an immediate full ban, the government can take practical steps like increasing awareness campaigns, putting stronger warning advertisements, and reducing the easy availability of tobacco products. If production and supply are controlled, over time people will automatically consume less. So, I strongly believe that public health must be the priority, and tobacco should be gradually banned.

Tobacco should be banned because it causes serious harm to both individuals and society. It’s one of the leading causes of life-threatening diseases like cancer and heart problems, and it affects not just smokers but also people exposed to secondhand smoke. Many youngsters fall into this habit early, not realising the long-term damage.
Banning tobacco would help protect public health, reduce healthcare costs, and create a cleaner, healthier environment. While some may talk about personal choice and economic impact, no personal freedom should come at the cost of others’ lives. A ban would send a strong message that health and well-being come first.

Hello everyone.
My opinion is that tobacco has good side.
Also, on the positive side, tobacco plays an important role in the Indian economy and provides a large number of employment opportunities, which is a positive aspect. Another one is the bat side is the so many to get addicted to the tobacco and to get faced so many health problems for eg. Lugs caner and some heath problems.
Nowadays, health is more expensive normal people, to get difficultly to get maintane health Tobacco kill's many people life special the youth addicted the so many dlags etc. I can explain possitive and negative side. In India, the tobacco ban there on is possible beacuse so many people to get already addicted tobacco that can not live without tobacco life.

Hello. I am Anuja.
Rather than banning Tobacco, the government should increase the tax on the same, due to which the cost price of tobacco will be increased and consumption of tobacco will be decreased at all levels.

Hello everyone.
Tobacco, It is mostly famous for its negative side that causes health issue due to consumption of it and also makes the people life harder without consuming it if they are addicted to but it is equally important to to discuss the postive side of tobacco before deciding on banning of tobacco, It is also known that it is used in most of the medical departments and sudden ban can results in addicted people life harder.
On the other side, the unemployment for the labour work in tobacco and the Black market for it will rapidly increase, which is hard to control.
Conclusion,
Rather than a complete ban, implementing awareness and adding more taxes on such goods can be helpful to limit.

Hello everyone,
There is a way to stop tobacco instead of banning.
We can introduce another and natural tobacco-flavoured something like candies etc., such that people can stop using tobacco. It's not a tobacco, it just give the kick for tobacco users. In this way, we can stop tobacco and then ban it for the young generation.

Hi Everyone,
So today our topic is whether tobacco must be banned, yes/no.
In my opinion, the issue of banning tobacco is not as simple as just saying yes or no.
On one hand we all know how harmful it is it causes diseases like cancer, heart disease have and effects even those indirectly exposed to it so from a health perspective banning tobacco seems like good idea but at the same time we can't ignore the fact that millions of people especially farmers and workers depends on the tobacco industry for their livelihood a sudden ban could lead to have unemployment and even increased black market activities making things harder to control I feel that instead of an outright ban the government should focus on stricter regulations higher taxes limited availability strong warning labels an impactful awareness campaigns especially for the youth along with this proper support should be given to those working the tobacco sector have to ship to other options so the answer of the question tobacco should be banned? I would say not immediately, a phased, well-planned approach would be much more practical and effective.
