E-cigarettes are more harmful. That is why it is a crime to possess, use or sell e-cigarettes in India. India has banned it completely. According to this, users of e-cigarettes will be punished with a maximum imprisonment of 3 years or a fine of up to Rs.5 lakh or both. In Spite of strict laws, the circulation of e-cigarettes is increasing in urban areas due to lack of awareness about it.
Even recently, large quantities of e-cigarettes were seized at Trichy Airport and Visakhapatnam. Central and state governments should take strict measures to stop smuggling of e-cigarettes from some countries including China to India.
It is necessary to highlight the harm caused by smoking and drugs and guide the minors & youth and make them not indulge in the habit.
Like the fight against drugs, it is the need of the hour for parents, teachers, individuals, society, voluntary organizations and the government to rally against the ever-increasing smoking habit. Awareness should be intensified.
It is harmful to the health of not only the smoker, but also to those around him, and the smoke in any form is an enemy to humanity and humanity!
