Delhi High Court Cigarette Sale

Delhi High Court has admitted a PIL which sought a ban on smoking in court complex and removal of all shops selling tobacco and cigarette there citing ill-effects on health and contending that people cannot be "subjected to become passive smokers".

The Delhi High Court on Monday refrained itself from vacating an order by which the AAP government was restrained from taking coercive measures against the sale of chewable tobacco in the national capital.
