Abstract

 Tobacco is the leading preventable cause of death and more than five million people die globally from the effects of tobacco every year – more than that of HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis. Tobacco is a serious threat to health and a proven killer and ranks second as a cause of death in the world. We need to sensitise the public, especially youngsters. It should be a collective measure. Both the central and state governments have taken various measures but we need to keep on emphasising and raise the public awareness to control the tobacco consumption. The article emphasises the issue with special reference to Uttarakhand state which has a very high consumption of tobacco.
