Inner Wheel District 315 launches WOMEN AS TOBACCO MARSHAL

Mrs. Sonal Bhatia, Tobacco MARSHAL leader, introduced “WOMEN as Tobacco MARSHAL” in the Inner Wheel District 315 as part of #SAVETHEYOUTH campaign by ICanCaRe.

District Chairman Mrs. Leela Chandhwani called an online meeting with her district Presidents and Members on “WOMEN AS TOBACCO MARSHALS TO SAVE THE YOUTH” and introduced the concept of Tobacco MARSHALs on 17th March 2023.

Dr. Pawan Gupta M.Ch. Founder ICanCaRe and Director of MAX Hospital Delhi said women are the greatest sufferer because of tobacco. The tobacco industry is targeting women in the name of liberation. As primary users, women suffer more than the man. And in this case, as a woman is married to a tobacco user her life is in total topsy turvy. Women suffer the most, and in the present era, they can be the savior of the present and the future generation. Every woman should be empowered as a tobacco MARSHAL to save herself, her family, future generation, and society from the painful prolonged suffering and death due to tobacco.

Mrs. Sonal Bhatia, leader of Tobacco MARSHAL a great motivator and who achieved a target of 1000 tobacco MARSHAL in 5 months during her tenure as DC of 310 was greatly appreciated for her pioneering work as a Tobacco Marshal along with her members. Her unique endeavor to reach out to the rural areas and create sensitization followed by training of 550 tobacco MINI-MARSHALs of NCC girls from the rural background was applauded and sought to be used as an example to follow by all to increase our reach and penetration in the most needed areas in our country.It is important for capacity building, to get more and more girls and women involved as Tobacco MARSHALs or MINI-Emirati Marshals to widen the campaign.

Sonal said, “women can become the shakti against Tobacco by commitment and empowerment by training”.
