Government must necessarily deal with smoking! this is the cause of many diseases!
such kind of smoking is currently doing by so many people opposite IBM trade center, Yerwada, Pune, which is public place. Please do some strict action to stop it.
where to complaint against Central Govt Staff for SMOKING, if anyone knows about .. please e-mail to mufkhan@yahoo.com
well, I am looking for the same solution, but i guess Govt Staff may never get caught while smoking in offices …right infront of Big No Smoking signs. Well, is it just a show-off … does anyone have a answer to all this ?.
Even I am looking forward for the solution, you may mail me to rocky_justyna@yahoo.co.uk.
government is not checking this smoking at all..cigarettes,bidi etc are easily available near schools and colleges.eg: near bhagwan mahavir institute of engg. and tech. vill. raipur
