In my opinion, tobacco should not completely ban in India because tobacco industries play a major role in our country's economy. But tobacco is very harmful to our health. If you start consuming tobacco there is a high chance of getting many health diseases like cancer and asthma. So instead of completely banning tobacco, the government should have to increase taxes on the manufacturing company and make a rule for youth who are under 25 not having the right to take tobacco and start creating a say not to tobacco campaign.

I think tobacco must be banned if we ban tobacco it may affect our GDP but we all know this famous quote i.e. HEALTH IS WEALTH, nothing is more important than your health.

By consuming tobacco many people are suffering from oral cancer, lung cancer, and difficulty in breathing. So, if we ban tobacco we can save youth of our country and in return they will work as assets and contribute to our GDP.

Good Morning/Afternoon everyone.

This is Harika.

As we all know tobacco is the major cause of health problems like throat cancer, asthma, lung diseases, stroke etc. India is the 2nd largest producer and consumer of tobacco.

The immediate banning of tobacco leads to various problems like smuggling so we have to provide awareness programmes around educational institutions like schools and colleges. So, that it will not affect the younger generation.

We have to aware the tobacco consuming people about the side effects of tobacco through the National Tobacco Control Programme and reduce the production and supply of tobacco products.

Thank You.

No tobacco should not be banned. Everyone know tobacco is bad for health and it can cause cancer and people are smart enough to think about their lives and still if they are using tobacco then it is their decision to ruin their life plus the government is making a great revenue by tobacco and many people are employed so its good for some people and bad for dumb people plus the government is making efforts to aware people about the causes of tobacco. So it, must not be banned.

My opinion is Tobacco is the most dangerous. Tobacco is making cancer, nowadays almost 80% of Humans smoke the cigarette. Finally, I would say India must be banned Tobacco.

In my opinion, at present tobacco is a source of revenue for the government to make our states as well as a nation more developed, but looking into the wider aspect it affects us a lot according to the current scenario most of the teenagers are trapped into this by consuming it because of which they are now suffering from many of the diseases related to the mouth also from the severe disorder that is *mouth cancer*, as our country having the largest youth population in the worldwide with an average age group of 28, so it is definitely destroying our youth population.

So, in my conclusion, I would say that at present there are so many threats spread due to it, so, our government should take harsh action towards it and impose harsh laws as much as they can.

Jai Hind.

Hello friends,

In my opinion, a complete ban on tobacco would lead to great economic consequences for a nation as the tobacco industry contributes significantly towards revenue generation for a nation.

But seeing the harmful effects of tobacco especially on the youth, I think the government should take strict steps towards banning tobacco for people less than 25 years of age. Also, many forms of tobacco drugs are available at a very cheap price. So, the government should take steps and impose heavy taxes on drugs like tobacco. Then it will become unavailable to many people and would eventually reduce the use of tobacco.

Hello everyone!

While we've discussed the pros and cons of a complete tobacco ban, we've overlooked an important point: the broader issue of narcotics. Alcohol, in the form of beer and wine, and other substances also pose significant health risks.

When considering a ban, we must be mindful of the potential economic impact on those employed in the tobacco industry. A complete ban could lead to substantial unemployment.

To mitigate these concerns, I propose a more targeted approach. Banning tobacco and narcotics in public spaces like malls, cinemas, and other areas where exposure to secondhand smoke or substance abuse can harm others is a reasonable step.

However, a complete ban might be too drastic, especially given the potential economic consequences.
