‘Ban on tobacco products will be enforced strictly’

The ban imposed by the State Government on the manufacture and sale of tobacco products like pan parag, pan masala and ghutka would be strictly enforced said R.V.Ravi, Designated Officer, Tamil Nadu Food Safety and Drug Administration Department here on Saturday.
Pointing out that a committee headed by the District Collector is in the process of being formed to enforce the ban and ensure that it is not violated, he said that stringent action will be taken against those who defy the ban.
