Hello everyone.
I say that tobacco should be banned and the immediate action may affect the people who are working in the tobacco industry.
So step-by-step action is the best one. First, we should stop advertising about harmful products we should tell people how harmful it is if you use these kinds of products. People feel scared of using these products. So, we should build a strong and impactful advertisement. It causes various illnesses like cancer, skin disease and many more. We should make people aware of the dangers of using such products. Nowadays youngsters are getting more addicted to it. The government must provide strict rules and create a law for using these products. We should stop selling in petty shops, malls, and shops near schools. And this may bring a little change to the environment.

Hello everyone,
I think we all know that tobacco should be banned because of the harmful effects by consuming it but after knowing that chewing of tobacco is a primary reason for mouth cancer, tooth decay, etc till the Government is not doing any think or taking action against the company or brands which are manufacturing this poison also we can see that nowadays pan masala companies are endorsing celebrities to promote their products in publics, rajanigandha and other companies making perception in the public mind that these are the thing look cool while consuming, the government is also seeing all this from a decade and still didn't take any strict action against these companies because a huge amount of revenue generate these companies and some percentage goes to our economy to be precise the tobacco industry's contribution to the value of production in the Indian economy is 0.32%.
The tobacco industry's contribution to the value of consumption in the Indian economy is 1.05%.
The tobacco industry's contribution to employment in the Indian economy is 2.2%.
The tobacco industry's contribution to the tax revenue of the Indian government is 0.99%.
At last, I would like to conclude that banning tobacco is not a just solution but we have to make some new policies for the usage of tobacco and the government has to take some serious measures to control the consumption of tobacco among adults as well as teenagers.

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.

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.

In my point of view, tobacco should be ban in India because of nowadays we have seen so many people facing the problem from danger disease like Cancer, TV etc. The main reason behind it tobacco people well know this is harmful for the human body. But they are eating. Everywhere the government is not responsible because until you don't try to own self.

According to me, TOBACCO must be banned neither in our country nor in all over the world, because of its bad effect on our body and we all know what are the bad effect of Tobacco. As I have said we all know it's bad effect but some pepole among us don't know about it. Many pepole take tobacco in different different purpose like youth take it as style and old pepole take it as years of habit of many years of exprience, I try to say that although government issued some rules ragarding that but these pepole do that even they know all the issue that's the saddest partt.
Now we all are discussing regarding "TOBACCO BANNED" but the fact when we realize ourselves regarding the drawbacks of TOBACCO then we are able to create a TOBACCO free world. I want to say that it 's all about us and all about self-realization. THAT'S ALL.

Hello, friends, this is a highly relevant topic that needs to be discussed currently.
Mainly two types of smoking are there active and passive smoking. Smoking not only affects the person consuming it but also people surrounding them. Smoking whether active or passive it ultimately jeopardizes one's life. Smoking affects our respiratory system over a long time and it has been an addict for the people and they are willing to spend whatever to consume it. So immediate banning is not a solution they will eventually move on to other drugs that give a similar effect. Proper awareness must be given citing the consequences and they can be even moved to de-addiction centre to recover from the situation. At the end, anything that poses threat to human life and society is a threat to our county too.

According to me, tobacco should be banned but I feel it cannot be completely banned. The reason for its complete discontinuation is of course health related which in turn leads to other issues, may it be social or economic.
People get addicted to it, and spend all their money on it, instead of using that money on something productive.
Apart from the money issue, severe health issues like cancer etc also take place. This further destroys the whole family. It doesn't allow a family to grow which in turn hampers the development of the country too. Because many families together make the whole nation.
But on the other hand, the tobacco industry is so big in our country. It gives employment to a big chunk of people. Banning it completely will require a good alternative for these workers too. This has to be very well thought upon.

In my opinion, tobacco should not be banned because it can have a direct impact in lowering the GDP level of the economy and also may result in a decrease in the per capita income of the economy. As India is still a developing country most of the part of India is agrarian economy hence tobacco is the major source of income for many people. Also, I would like to share its cons i.e. Tobacco is not harmful, the problem lies in the way of usage. Anything consumed in abundance is harmful. So before using tobacco, you should keep in mind its causes.
Thank you.
Thank you.
