In my perspective, strictly banning tobacco and cigarettes may lead to consequences.
For example, Due to harsh rules, people might seek alternative, illegal sources, which could lead to even more serious issues. Instead, we should start by taking gradual steps. One approach could be increasing taxes on tobacco and prohibiting its use in public places. This way, we slowly reduce tobacco consumption. Additionally, reducing the cultivation of tobacco crops would help create an impact. It's important to raise awareness about the health risks, such as cancer, associated with tobacco use, so people understand its harmful effects. Over time, as the public becomes more aware, stricter regulations or even a complete ban could be implemented. This step-by-step approach will likely be more effective in reducing tobacco use.

Yeah, of course, tobacco must be banned as it is very dangerous for those who consume it. Smoking tobacco also harms the people around them as some people might be allergic to smoke.
It also affects the health of many people. There's a line written on tobacco packs that "tobacco causes cancer" Even though consume it because they have a habit of consuming it and they don't want to get rid of it. It's harmful to their family too. What if they might get cancer?
As tobacco factories provide employment to many people but these people are affecting themselves by making it, the person who is always around tobacco after some sort of time he might consume it and he also becomes a tobacco addict nd it will affect them.
In my opinion, these tobacco companies should be banned as they also make small children have it.

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.

First of all, thank you so much for giving me this opportunity.
So in my point of view, tobacco should be banned. Because we all know that it's harmful to one's health and can damage their lungs and cause severe diseases like Cancer and so on. We should also think about the companies producing products like tobacco in the country, If we look near us we come to know that most of the products that are sold in the market in the name of the vanishing the addiction to tobacco of all of the products are being produced by the same companies who use to produce the tobacco.
Conclusion: So in my opinion, tobacco must be banned from our country, and we the common man of our country should come forward to stop the consumption of these poisons and create awareness among the people, especially the adults.

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.

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.

In my opinion, banning tobacco is not the solution. It can only worsen the scenario.
Firstly, because people can start having more toxic substances as an alternative. Secondly, instant decisions like this will affect the economic growth of our country. Thirdly, words like "Restriction", "Ban" etc automatically trigger the aggression in human mind and as a result tobacco addicted people can go to any level to get the thing they want.
Therefore, one thing the government can do is to increase the price of tobacco products of all brands instead of raising the price of essentials like medicines and sanitary pads. Because the former is a choice but the latter isn't. This way people will decrease their intake of tobacco. Simultaneously there should be awareness campaigns from time to time.

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.

Hello friends.
As we all know our today's topic is tobacco must be banned or not. In my opinion, tobacco must be banned because there is nothing positive in having tobacco but having tobacco has only negative effects on one who take tobacco, for example, tobacco damage the teeth, causes mouth cancer, lungs cancer, breathing problems, loss of stamina, it is also waste of money. The addition of tobacco is spreading very quickly among teenagers even the boys of 15-16 years got addicted of cigarettes, tobacco, drugs, alcohol. The government should take strong steps to stop tobacco by banning tobacco, aware kids and people, strictly stop the business of tobacco in the black market. The person who got addicted can stop taking tobacco by the help of Nasha Mukti kender.
Thanks.

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.
