Your Excellency,
AS I AM PURSUING MY FINAL YEAR IN LAW AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THAT THE DECISION
OF MAHARASTHRA GOVERNMENT ON BANNED GUTKHA IS NOT IMPLEMENTING PROPERLY.IT IS
STILL SELLING LIKE A HOT CAKE IN THE VARIOUS SMALL TOWN OF MAHARASHTRA UNDER THE
DUE INFLUENCE OF LOCAL AUTHORITIES.IT IS CLEARLY A VIOLATION OF THE MAHARASHTRA
GOVERNMENT DECISION.BEING A FINAL YEAR STUDENT OF LAW IT IS APPEALING TO ME THAT
THE PANSHOP KEEPER HAS NOT A SINGLE FEAR OF LAW AND THEY ARE JUST PASSING A HUSH
MONEY TO THE POLICE AND FOOD DEPARTMENT.PREVIOUSLY WHEN THE BAN WAS NOT IMPOSED
THE MONEY IS GOING IN TO THE REVENUE OF MAHARASHTRA GOVERNMENT IN THE FORM OF TAX
BUT NOW IT IS GOING IN TO THE POCKET OF POLICE AND FOOD DEPARTMENT IN THE FORM OF
BRIBE.IT IS A FACT ON THE GROUND LEVEL,AS MY CONSCIENCE DOESN'T PERMIT ME TO FOR
SUCH ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES DESPITE THE BAN.I HAVE CONDUCTED A SURVEY ON THE GROUND
LEVEL BY VISITING A PAN SHOP AND CONDUCTING A SURVEY WITH A WHOLESELLER BY HIDING
MY TRUE IDENTITY.PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR VALUABLE GUIDANCE ON THE ABOVE MENTIONED
MATTER.
Opinion of Expert Lawyer,
You can take up the issue with any of the Law enforcing authorities including the
Lok Ayukta or can file a PIL.
I do respect the opinion of expert lawyers but how through public demonstration we
will place this matter before the government without having any strong support
NGO,Political Party and other media like newspaper.Will you please assist me in
the battle of eradication of Gutkha completely from the Maharashtra by creating
some Registered Anti tobacco campaign to raise our voice to protect the health of
citizen.It is just a new battle for the whole Maharashtra to awaken their eyes for
the new coming generation not indulge in such toxic product.

To sum the issues,i would like the conclude that the Maharashtra government should
consider the livelihood of small panshop keeper;atleast the ban on panmasala
product should be uplifted considering the question of livelihood of the panshop
keeper who are illiterate and does not possess any other skill to diversify their
business.Please follow the principle of natural justice.Already the unemployment
is increasing like a mounting arrears of pending cases in the courts.Please
provide justifiable ground without hurting the right to livelihood of the people
and also the honourable decision of the Maharashtra Government.Please stop
corruption among the designated authorities by minimising the role of interference
by them while acting in an administerial capacity.
For the sake of justice either implement the ban effectively or uplift it by
imposing certain harsh condition.But please don't make it a subject of jokes for
the common people.
Every citizen must obey the law but the administrative authorities are just
misusing their power and also please take some action the official of food and
police department who himself addicted to gutkha and such officer should be
dismissed from the service.If you conduct a survey almost 90% of the officials are
addicted to gutkha.
Please provide some new guidelines in the recrutiment policy that the service will
be directly terminated if any officer found indulge in the addict of gutkha.
It is submitted that it is well settled legal position that the judiciary
machinery will bring some radical changes without the interference of political
leader who are just making a statment for just take a political mileage.
