When Howrah Can, Why Not Kolkata?

31 May, 2012 : World No-Tobacco Day. Many seminars, rallies, speeches will be there all day long. But how many persons felt motivated to quit tobacco, it will remain as vague as usual. But Howrah, the city on the other bank of river Ganga became successful after started anti-tobacco campaign 4 years ago. Now smoking and chewing tobacco publicly is punishable offence in Howrah. So, the question is, when Howrah became successful, why not Kolkata? A positive and motivated attitude should be given to quit tobacco and to stop its uses publicly. -- A. B.
