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.

Hello everyone,
Tobacco is harmful. It can cause many severe diseases like cancer, lung problems and many more. So in my opinion, the tobacco must be banned by our government because it is affecting the youth. Many youth in the country try smoking and get addicted to it.
On the other hand, tobacco is still available in the market because it is contributing to the economy and providing employment to people.

Hi! In my opinion, Tobacco generates employment, but it should not harm anyone.
Today, Lakhs of people die from mouth cancer and other related issues from tobacco.
The government should ban tobacco completely and make life peaceful for every tobacco consumer.

Tobacco is banned but not in a fast way. Because many of the workers are working in their if we banned then what would they will do?
So in place of this, we can ban it by increasing the prices of Tobacco and cigarettes. As the labour of workers is also understood that I will be banned after some time, so they will start to find new jobs.
As my opinion on this, so everyone please give me your ideas on this GD topic.

Cigarettes are dangerous for health and should be banned—but not all at once. Many people are addicted, and a sudden ban could lead to serious health and mental issues. Instead, the government should reduce cigarette use step by step.
Prices should be increased gradually, smoking should be restricted in public, and awareness campaigns should help people quit. A slow, smart plan is better than a sudden ban. This way, we protect health without harming those already addicted.

Hello everyone,
Yes, we should ban tobacco in India as it is harmful.
Most of the youngsters who are studying are habituated by these and when they are under pressure, anxiety about any problem, they are consuming tobacco, which leads to lung cancer and other health issues. Most of the teenagers are also habituated, and they feel like it's a mandatory thing to do in day-to-day life the people around the person may also be affected There are many cases who spoiled their bright features. Some families lost their children it's so pathetic, our generation is pacing day by day.
So, We must ban tobacco.

Hi everyone. I'm Magendraboopathy.
Well I'm here to oppose the ban of tobacco because everyone just saying ban with the reason it's injurious to health and that's it, but everyone forget about it's contribution in Indian economy and guess what, whoever consumes tobacco they took it with their own risk and banning tobacco will cost many families lives who works in tobacco related live hood from cultivation to selling it and guess what each tobacco products are heavily taxed and it a gives a descent and reasonable amount for government.
Each and every one knows tobacco is injurious and some may be there who will just potrait me as supporter or tobacco addict. I'm just telling if we ban tobacco we gonna face huge economical crisis.
So, I'm telling no for banning the tobacco.

Today's topic is whether tobacco must be banned, yes or no.
In my opinion, tobacco must bended but we have to see both sides because in tobacco companies, many labourers are working there, so when we close the tobacco company, that also causes unemployment for those people.
So we have to think about them too, and it also gives government funds and the government take 40% taxes from companies, but irrespective of these, we must have to ban tobacco because it causes deadly diseases like asthma, tumours and cancer.

Today, we are all gathered here to discuss a common topic: Tobacco should be banned in India.
Tobacco is very harmful to health. It is the cause of many diseases like mouth cancer, lung cancer and it also badly affects teeth.
Tobacco mainly affects youth, and it makes them addicted. In India, in every second, a person is addicted to tobacco. It is not only bad for health but also badly affects the surroundings.
According to the Indian constitution, tobacco should be banned according to Article 47.
But on the other hand, it gives employment. If it is banned so employment will decrease.
This topic concludes that tobacco should be banned in India it is harmful for our next generations and for the environment.
Thanks to all.

I would like to say that tobacco must be banned in India. Tobacco has become such a common addiction that every second home in India can find atleast one person addicted to it. India has recorded an increase in the number of tobacco consumers in the last 10 years, this has subsequently increased the number of cases of death due to lung and mouth cancer in India.
Such a death-selling product should be banned in India. Lack of awareness is the biggest reason why people are choosing to buy tobacco. The government should take major steps such as a tobacco ban, a fine on consumption and selling the products, as well as spreading awareness regarding how hazardous tobacco is to health throughout social media, banners, etc.
Tobacco consumers' ages vary from 5-50 years, which shows that each age group, from children to old people, is a prey to this dangerous and life-threatening product.
To save our future generations from buying their own death, we need to take a step to ban the tobacco.
