Pherzawl launched the Tobacco Free Youth Campaign 3.0 to combat tobacco addiction, aiming to educate students and the community about the dangers of tobacco, particularly near Mizoram.
- The Tobacco Free Youth Campaign 3.0 was launched on Thursday in Pherzawl, the most backward district in Manipur, bordering Mizoram.
- Organized by the District Health Society, the campaign follows a statewide ban on Gutkha and Pan Masala to address tobacco smoking and its harmful effects.
- The initiative is part of the Sardar@150 program, focusing on preventing tobacco addiction among youth and promoting healthier lifestyles in the community.
Why It Matters
This campaign is significant as it tackles the rising issue of tobacco addiction among youth, promoting awareness and healthier choices. Addressing tobacco smoking not only benefits individual health but also supports broader public health goals in the region.
