Tobacco must be banned. Yes or No.

Yes, tobacco must be banned.

Tobacco is harmful to health and causes serious diseases like cancer, heart problems, and lung diseases. It not only affects the person using it but also harms those around them through passive smoking.

Many people, including young students, get addicted to tobacco, ruining their health and future. Banning tobacco will help reduce health risks, save lives, and lower medical costs.

The government should focus on promoting a healthy lifestyle instead of allowing harmful products like tobacco to be sold. A complete ban on tobacco is necessary for a healthier society.

Hello everyone, myself Sainath Shet.

Discussing the banning of tobacco from India :

Yes tobacco should be banner but tobacco eating people are increasing now a days that's why government should take initiative to ban tobacco in india, Currently I saw that small children a started eating tobacco in village as well as in cities.

Wasting almost 1000 rupees in chewing tobacco gives them satisfaction in chewing and spitting, instead of saving that money for children's education which helps for their future as well as they won't learn from their parents of eating tobacco.

Now women's also in villages eat such things.

So, tobacco should be banned.

In my opinion tobacco should be ban in India. It affects a lot of people's lives and the public. As we already know, tobacco is not only affects the person but also affects the people around that person. It's like spreading poison to others.

The government should take severe action against that product. These products are easily get from the local store.

We need to ban the products from the local stored. So that people can't buy those products.

However, addiction is one of the most dangerous habits in human life.

Even after banning those products, the affected people would search for other stuff so the government should initiate rehabilitation for those people to recover from that life.

Hello everyone.

As we all know, tobacco is a risk to human health not only for those who are drinking smoke but also it affects their family member's health and economic status. We can't blame the government for this situation; it's the people's call because everyone knows that tobacco and alcohol cause health problems. To tackle this situation, we need to see the root cause of this incident, ie taking tobacco gives people intense pleasure.
So in my opinion, we should divert people to use some other thing which gives the same pleasure but of no health issues like tobacco-free ayurvedic cigarettes etc, the government should pay attention to this matter and spend more money in the research of this incident. Such that a new effective alternative to cigars will come into existence. Thankyou.

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.

Hello everyone.

@Sourav
As you said, if we ban tobacco, the victim may alter to another substance like that. Yeah, that's true, it depends on the individual. Why can't he/she be in good substance? Not everyone will addicted to another bad substance in my view. So harmful Tobacco must be banned to avoid severe health hazards and addiction and also sir mentioned that we can create awareness to control. Already in alcohol and cigar packs, the company mentioned the harmful effects with disgusting images. After seeing those warnings, many of them still consume those things. So there is no point in creating awareness of those things. Obviously, Tobacco must be banned.

Hello everyone, in my opinion on this topic, we all know tobacco consumption is not good for our health, but many people are addicted to these substances, because of other people who are addicted to tobacco, if we banned tobacco it may be harmful in our society because those people are addicted they might be turn another substance, and also its impact their physical and mental life, so tobacco banned is not the solution, but we can generate awareness how harmful it, and also govt should create some rules and regulation.

Hi Everyone, this feels like so one sided with the only choice being yes. And I don't even feel the real need to go all out and defend it or explain it because it's that obvious to the whole world. It kills you, makes you an addict and grabs the opportunity to live a quality life along with your loved ones. Death may be a exaggerated result but health issues in one form or other can be guaranteed as a part of consumption of tobacco.

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.

Good evening, my name is Akanksha Singh.

Today's group discussion is "Tobacco must be banned. Yes or no?".

I sincerely apologize if my thoughts may hurt anyone's sentiments, but in my opinion, banning tobacco is not the solution to the problem. I completely agree with the harmful effects of consuming tobacco. However, if we ban tobacco today, people might turn to other addictive substances tomorrow. This is not a sustainable solution.

If the government hasn’t banned tobacco so far, there must be some reason for it. While I’m not exactly aware of them, certain benefits have probably prevented such a ban. I have never encountered any widespread demand or protests for banning tobacco, either.

As for those who are already addicted, even if we manage to help them quit one substance today, they might turn to another tomorrow. Some drugs are even used in medicines, so we cannot simply ban everything.

Instead, we should focus on creating awareness about the harmful effects of excessive tobacco use. People must understand how damaging it can be for themselves and their families. It’s not just tobacco—no one should consume any addictive substance.

If someone does choose to consume such substances, they must ensure they do not become addicted, as addiction is a very harmful thing.
