Guys !!! You read the news about the recent research prediction - Nearly One Million Indians die every year from Tobacco Smoking. Now, What do you think of this No Smoking Law? Do you think this can be implemented? What is influencing our young generation to get into this habit? Do you think the entertainment industry has its part in this? Please discuss !!!
Think about how much passive smoking a bartender(an employee) is subjected to working with a room full of people with at least half of whom(may be more) are smokers.
Does he deserve this?
1 Million a year - Wow I’m surprised. I think the No Smoking law should be strictly implemented. And the fine should be heavy. The smoking scenes in the movies should be censored. A lot of young people get influenced from these movies and think its style and fashion. Once addicted they can never stop from doing that ..
Implementing the Non-smoking law will not only reduce the smoking but the innocent people will be saved from passive smoking.
