(HINDI) Song on tobacco for the grassroot people. Recorded during 2005 WNTD. Though the song is not set to professional tune but the catchy lyrics is the one which is more important.

Tobacco Facts

The tobacco industry is already paying a damage of overĀ 250 billion US$ to all 50 states of US of A.

The Global Settlement Agreement was a first attempt at a settlement between the state attorneys general and the tobacco companies. The settlement included a payment by the companies of $365.5 million, agreement to possible Food and Drug Administration regulation under certain circumstances, and stronger warning labels and restrictions on advertising. In exchange the companies would be freed from class-action suits and litigation costs would be capped. The agreement was reworked and as a result the tobacco industry is paying nearly 250 billion US dollors in damages to all the 50 States of USA as agreed under the "Master Settlement Agreement."
