Smoking kills

Published on: June 16, 2019 10:25 PM

Sir: No doubt, smoking is very severe health hazards that can takes life of a human being.

The death rate is increasing due to smoking tobacco in young as well as in the old. The fact is that the young generation is more motivated to smoking because it is presumed by them that smoking is fashion and is the style of heroes and the rich. This habit of smoking is very deadly which not only takes the life of addictive smoker but also the one who is present around the smokers It is alarming to have the report released by the Pakistan Paediatrics Association a month ago that around 1,000 to 1,200 children between the ages of six and 16 take up smoking every day which is an extremely alarming situation.

The government has to take serious action against cigarette companies who are manufacturing so as to save a life of people from death.
