With Tobacco MARSHAL on the campus, it is going to make a difference in society.”

Dr. Pawan Gupta founder of ICanCaRe “TOBACCO MARSHALs are a deterrent against tobacco use on the campus. Tobacco control is a program in the continuum, it has to be persistent efforts and not a once-a-year program.”

Mrs. Sonal Bhatia the women leader for SAVE the youth campaign – “TOBACCO MARSHALs are the influencers in society, they are the SAVIOURS. It is a prestige and a recognition of personal social responsibility.” Sonal Bhatia is an Association Council member of the World’s Largest Women’s Organization – INNER WHEEL Club. She says, “Women are the biggest sufferer due to tobacco – health, social, financial, sexual, and family life is destroyed due to tobacco use by spouses. Every woman should be a TOBACCO MARSHAL”.

Dr. Reena Kumar, Academic Director of ICanCaRe warned – “BE CAREFUL and FEARFUL of the tobacco users around you, BE SMART and DO NOT START, EMPOWER yourself as TOBACCO MARSHALs. SAVE yourself and save others. It is so much welcome to have tobacco MARSHAL at KIET and it will set an example for other Institutes of the University.”
