Abul Khair Tobacco Violating Tobacco Control Law!

Abul Khair Tobacco Company Ltd. (AKTCL) is violating the tobacco control law of Bangladesh by showcasing glossy leaflets all over the with large fonts reading "Same Price Best Taste: Per Stick Still Being Sold for Taka 5 Only". Such blatant promotion of tobacco products is considered as a punishable offence. While the FY 2024-25 national budget increased both the prices of and taxes on low-tier cigarettes, the cigarette company claims that it is still selling cigarettes at the previous price. All kinds of advertisement and promotion of tobacco products must be stopped immediately through strict implementation of the law.
