In my opinion, Tobacco should not be banned. Because Tobacco companies help our governments in many ways like paying their taxes correctly and which helps to run the nation properly. But a law must come, That says tobacco should not be sold to people who are less than 25 years old.
If this type of law comes we can hope to see a reduction in the consumption of Tobacco among People. Most teenagers fall into the traps of tobacco. They do it because their immature minds think that using tobacco in front of people is real Heroism, so they do it. But after some time when they understood the real situation, Tobacco would take control over them. They must have gotten addicted to this. Even though their mind is not willing to accept tobacco but their body can't avoid it.

Hi everyone,
You know in these whole universes everything had its pros and cons. So, tobacco also has its pros and cons. It depends upon the people who are using such things. Usually, if you consume tobacco with a limit it gives you a good feel and it helps to create new innovative thoughts in your mind. If you consume over it gonna take uncontrolled. When it comes to why tobacco was not banned in India some families depend upon tobacco farming. And it also helps to grow our country's economy. Tobacco is used for antiseptics like medicines. So, there are so many benefits to tobacco.
If you suddenly stop like if our country should ban tobacco, the consuming people like addicted people commit suicide. Why because of they are addicted to consuming such things.

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.

Good morning/afternoon everyone.
My Name is Niraj.
Yes, a ban in tobacco is necessary as it causes lung cancer, and other breathing and mental disorders, causes pollution, and millions of trees are cut to make cigarettes.
In my opinion immediate ban on tobacco will lead to certain other Problems as people will try to get tobacco in illegal ways like smuggling etc. And there is no guarantee that people will stop consuming it.
So instead we should use certain different approaches for example British government imposed a law banning tobacco for those under a certain age and increasing the age limit every year so that eventually younger generation will stop consuming it, educating people about it or reducing the production of tobacco etc.

Hello friends.
Yes, of course, we all know that consumption of tobacco is snatching the lives of people but in my opinion banning of tobacco is not the solution of this problem because people will replace the consumption of tobacco by other harmful products like Ganjha nicotine etc.
And also the tobacco is very helpful in increasing the GDP of our country.
So, friends, we should find a solution by which the lives of people and the economy of our country both should not be disturbed.
According to me, the production companies of tobacco should strictly order to not to use toxic products in the production of tobacco.
By which the people will not lose their lives and the economy of our country will not be disturbed.
Thank you, friends.

Yes, it should be banned for healthy India.
The one who consume tobacco products he is going to suffer in future and also by means of taking tobacco in tha public environment they are creating passive smoking for the people around. The children are highly affected by the passive smoking there are problems like wheezing, coughing, breathlessness and also increase the number of children who are becoming a smoker themselves.
The impact on children may affect our next generation also so, it must be banned in India. People who are addicted to it also needs some care to overcome. On the other side it is the income source for the people who are working in tobacco relatively. But by banding tobacco there will be a bright future for India.

According to my perspective,
Tobacco should not be completely banned, but it should be available according to the needs of the person.
I am saying this because tobacco increase manpower and it keeps our brain stimulated, that is the person does not require much food and water to work/survive. So somewhere it will increase the manpower in the mining industries and places where people need to work for longer hours.
I understand it causes many diseases and health-related problems but I am pointing it to use it as caffeine. We all know caffeine is also a carcinogen like Tobacco, still we all take it during our late-night work and to keep our brains stimulated.
Hence, I believe using it in the proper place and quantity will be fine.

Hello, everyone, I'm VISHAL.
As we all know, tobacco is injurious to our health. The consumption of tobacco leads to various diseases like asthma, and lung problems. Like other addictions, it is growing very fast. The youngsters are mainly targeted by it as they think that it is a work of greatness. As we all know tobacco also plays a big part in our GDP. So, if we ban it it may lead to financial issues for our country. To spread awareness among people, the government should start awareness programs mainly in schools and colleges. There should be an age restriction on tobacco. So, at last I want to conclude that the government should start a programme among people. And should open some campaign. Also open "nsha mukti" centers .

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.

In my opinion Tobacco must be banned for the welfare of community. We all know that Apart from COVID, The tobacco epidemic is one of the biggest public health threats the world.
We should not forget that tobacco killed more than 8 million people every year.
By consuming tobacco not only adversely affect our health but also can end our career/life. Tobacco is an addictive substance, Most of the teenagers use tobacco at such a young age for showing off. They soon become addicted to that.
Looking over the matter, I personally suggest that government should act strictly on the use of tobacco and should promote other business opportunities as there are many alternative things that can be used instead of tobacco.
Thank you.
