Surrogate ads of gutka continuing is failure of Govt

I realise that some of you are tired of seeing my posts for a decade on this issue. Well atleast we got Sunny Leone’s ads displaying her desires on car bonnet shut but this surrogate advertising is different animal.

the gutkha brand ads are still continuing despite Localcircles escalating the issue and Govt listening and banning such ads from broadcasting. The issue is enforcement.

Media channels during champions trophy again carried these ads in prime time invoking curiosity in children.

Surrogate ads cannot continue, period. I request LC manager to take this up. more

Government should do what government can for the welfare of the citizens. In this case they can definitely ban such advertisements inducing or tempting people to use such items or products. We can talk about responsibility, culture etc. But it is hard to avoid temptation. The whole Ramayana is built in temptation and desire. There are several such incidents in our epics. So government should ban such exploitation of public and young minds. more
