Petition to ban the gutka

I just came across this petition on banning of gutka in the circle. Do note everyone that Maharashtra Govt has made selling of gutka non bailable offence.

FSSAI needs to write to all the states to do the same and demand state food departments to publish metrics on enforcement. more

This is the Best Time to BAN Mfg Sale, Consumption of Liquor, Gutka, Gudumba/Saara all that Processed. more  
I believe Selling GUTKA is banned in all the States as also many other thing like thin polythene. But what is the state of affairs? Every where polythene carry bags are given by the shop keepers and shoppers gladly take them because it is easy to carry home purchases. Making laws do not automatically solve a problem. Strict implementation is. more  
Manufacturing and selling of 'Gutkha', a mixture of rotten betel-nut, tobacco, limestone powder & catechu powder had been totally banned in majority of our states about 3/4 years back. However, manufacturing & selling of gutkha without tobacco & in the name of 'pan masala' is continued and the gutkha addicted people consume this masala by mixing tobacco available in separate pouches. No move has been made by the governments as yet to ban these products. more  
No Gutkha even in news or on paper. more  
But still you can get Gutka for a price more
