What all happened to the ban on public smoking. MiD DAY runs a reality check as the ban will have its first anniversary on October 2

If you're a smoker, you know that the agencies responsible for enforcing the ban on smoking in public are probably sleeping, or smokers themselves.

The ban rolled out by former Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss has helped little in clearing the haze.
Priyank Kumar, who works with a banking firm in Cannought Place says," I smoke in open but have hardly been fined or even stopped. Yes, when the ban came into effect, I feared smoking in public but now the officials have become lax. Probably they too realise that it isn't feasible to force someone to quit the stub."
