Smoking cigarette is a heart-breaking issue in Pakistan. Smoking cigarettes is causing many diseases yet people are using it in a fashion that is too harmful to our health. However, it is causing many kinds of diseases such as heart disease, stroke, lung cancer, and many more. In Pakistan, it is estimated that the prevalence of tobacco smoking is 36% among males and 9% among females. Among youth especially university students. Approximately 12,00 children are smoking in the modern era. And every year more than 16100 people are killed by tobacco which is caused by diseases. Also now many people die due to smoking cigarettes in Pakistan.

            So, it is my humble request to the current PM of Pakistan Shahbaz Sharif to take strong action to prevent smoking cigarettes in Pakistan.
