If we are really serious about achieving a tobacco free society in India, we must all at least know the outlines of laws against tobacco in our country. Most of us are mentally lethargic to take up the issue and blame the Govt for not banning tobacco!! We must understand that Within the Limitations posed by a Democracy like ours.. we do have a reasonably good Act.. and things are improving and changing. But we must act fast as it is always an unhealthy race run against the Tobacco Industry.
