Many states are also taking steps to ban these harmful products but despite several awareness initiatives and action by the Government, the number of people consuming Gutka is increasing at an alarming rate. Gutka consumption also leads to people spitting indiscriminately further elevating the chances of spread of diseases and unhygienic surroundings.
