Tobacco Gutkha plastic packing to ban whether this matter is pending for judgment in SC -is it true? If yes, then what is the final date of judgment? Not only gutkha plastic packing but gutkha itself product should be totally banned all over India for the sake of good health of teenagers & general public.Everybody knows but why it is not banned? Do not understand. NGO and social service organization should take up this matter seriously legally for this good and holy cause to save next generations from serious health problems like cancer and health disorder due to gutkha. Inspite strong opposition & resistance from rich gutkha lobby , I believe and have faith that some organization will take up matter to banned gutkha.

Final date was given by SC to use paper pockets instead of plastic> Now all most all gutaka mfrs are using paper pockets and wonder thing is that gutakas are not avilable in the market they are selling in the black market. You know one pocket which used to sell at Rs.7 is selling for Rs.25/- still then addicted youth are purchasing it. See entire system is damaged no one can make any improvement.
