Answer: Telangana
Notes: The Telangana government has banned the manufacture, storage, distribution, and sale of gutka and pan masala containing tobacco and nicotine for one year starting May 24, 2024. This decision, driven by public health concerns, is enforced under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006. The ban aims to mitigate serious health risks like oral cancer and oral submucous fibrosis linked to these products.
