Despite several warnings by health experts that smoking is injurious to health, many people smoke cigarette on a daily basis. Smoking is one of the primary causes for lung cancer and other serious diseases. In fact, many non-smokers are exposed to passive smoking when they inhale the smoke from other people’s cigarettes.
In recent times, even school- and college-going students are also involved in this dangerous habit. The government in collaboration with the healthcare authorities should conduct awareness programmes and educate people about the dangers of smoking.
