Deccan Herald — selling of cigarettes on footpath, bus stops and near parks - reg.

Address:

560043

Many vendors establish a shop on foot path, near bus stops, parks, near metro stations and near residences for selling cigarettes, inconvenienceing the public especially the ladies and children with the harmful passive smoking. The authorities of bbmp and police have become mute spectators and are not vaccating these shops. Many children who are keen on learning may cultivate this bad habit. I request the authorities and the government to bring a law so that, the selling of cigarettes shall be carried in the outskirts of the city with valid license only. And also they shall establish cabins for smoking without harming the public. Will dh bring an article for the awareness of public and also file public interest litigation in the matter of banning smoking in the city and selling of cigarettes shall be with only valid license and cabins for smoking.
