Ban on smoking

Recently, I happened to travel to Dadu in a local bus in which passengers were constantly smoking cigarettes throughout the journey. When the bus stopped at a hotel on the way, I found many people were smoking there, too. Smoking is associated with a multitude of serious health issues, including breathing problems, cancer, heart disease, stroke, lung diseases, diabetes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Considering these health risks, it is imperative that cigarette smoking be banned in public areas and workplaces to safeguard the health of both the smokers and the non-smokers who are forced to become passive smokers.
