The ban on smoking in public places is a worst act took by the government.Government will enjoy the
revenue from cigarettes.If they are actually keen about the health of people,govt.should have banned tobacco at crop level and all the cigarette,cigar and beedi comapanies must be shutdown immediately.This act is providing the officers incharge to collect penalties from smokers.But in my openion not even 5% of penalties will reach govt.,making the official rich.Govt. should arrange smoking zones and allow private smoking zones.
