Danish,
Try to understand what neeraj is saying. I completely agree with Neeraj. Rediff has become a tabloid. Its just the strike, not a bill issued by Kerala govt.
Grow up rediff.

Hegemonic Vyapari Vyavasaya Samithi
by calmer on Apr 12, 2007 05:04 PM  Permalink 

VVS and its President T. Naseeruddin is concerned only about the profit margin - if anyone misunderstand that the proposed ban is an action to root out the evil practice, they are sadly mistaken. It is the same VVS and Naseeruddin who went on a strike demanding "advance notice" (of 14 days)for any "surprise inspection" by sales tax authorities, and surprisingly got it from the GoK!!

KERALA TRADERS DECIDED TO BAN CIGARETTES NOT FOR HEALTH REASONS BECAUSE OF MONEY MATTERS THATS REALLY PROVOKING. ANYWAY KERALITES SHOWS THEMSELVES THAT THEY ARE REALLY BELONGS TO INDIA'S ONE OF THE MOST EDUCATED STATES.

YEa, this guy believes Rajnikant is from Kerala. He won't be able to say where Imphal is located. And trying to tease malayalees! We did not claim anything. Who stops you from claiming that you're educated. But it shows when you speak that you are not.

Hope this happens in all states ...

Ban on smoking in public places will not work in a ultra-highly literate city like Bangalore. Hence a total ban on sale is highly recommended.

Politician and trade leaders will come out with some solution which will benefit both the parties. While consumer has to bear the brunt.

Innovation instead of ban
by Sivakumar Nair on Apr 12, 2007 04:54 PM  Permalink  | Hide replies

It is high time to think about innovative ways in smoking without affecting others health...Eg. Smockeless Cigarettes....

It is very hard to leave the habit..Whatever happens the smoking community will continue that!!!
