Anti-tobacco campaign on
The stalls are fake, but the messages very real: "Stay away from tobacco abuse to stay healthy.' In an effort to drive home the message of healthy living without tobacco, a non-government organisation working in the areas of mental health, Manas Foundation, with support from the Union Health and Family Welfare Ministry and the World Health Organisation has set up fake pan and cigarette stalls at five busy locations across the Capital to disseminate information about the ill-effect of tobacco use, give tips on how to quit and where to seek medical help.
