E-cigarettes set to be banned in India as Parliament passes bill | Writer | Admin | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
parliament on Monday passed a bill which seeks to prohibit the production, trade, transport, storage and advertisement of electronic cigarettes in the country. The Prohibition of Electronic Cigarettes Bill, 2019, was passed in Rajya Sabha with voice vote. The bill was passed in Lok Sabha earlier this month. The government had issued ordinance to ban e-cigarettes in September this year. The new law would replace the ordinance. "We have done it with very pious intention. There is no vested interest," Health Minister Harsh Vardhan told the House in his reply on the bill. |
