![Not only gutkha, all types of drugs are available in Tamil Nadu: Anbumani Ramadoss.](https://media.newstracklive.com/uploads/latest-news/india-news/Sep/01/big_thumb/10_612f75844e40f.jpg)
“The Tamil Nadu government should show equal concern in curbing the sale of narcotics including gutka to curb the sale of tobacco products including cigarettes. The aim of the government should be to create a tobacco free Tamil Nadu and save the youth. I should take action to implement the law and implement it strictly. Only then young generation including school and college students can be saved from drug abuse. Strict punishment should be given for those selling drugs including gutka near schools and colleges. The law will be amended for.
Anbumani Ramadoss, when he was the Union Health Minister, brought a law to ban its production and sale. Gutka was banned in Tamil Nadu on May 8, 2013. However, the sale of gutkha continues unabated. Not only gutkha, but all kinds of drugs like cannabis, opium, heroin, cocaine, LSD are available in Tamil Nadu, which can have very bad health and mental effects. Especially such medicines are being sold in educational institutions without any restrictions. There are many students who have lost their education due to drugs. This is the reason why students are committing suicide in educational institutions.
Every year 1.3 million people die from tobacco in India; Companies that manufacture tobacco products impose it on children with the aim of attracting new customers instead of customers who die every year due to tobacco addiction. Although the sale of tobacco products near schools is banned, the ban has not been respected. Conversely, their manufacturers display tobacco products, including cigarettes, in stores that are easy in the eyes of the students and easy for the students.
