The government of Gujarat, India, plans to ban the sale and consumption of e-cigarettes, reports Business Standard.
“To ban the e-cigarettes, the home department will bring a bill in the upcoming session of the assembly to amend the law (the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products—Prohibition of Advertisement and Regulation of Trade and Commerce, Production, Supply and Distribution Act) which regulates the sale and consumption of such items,” said Minister of State Pradeepsinh Jadeja.
