of a positive life is born today after this tobacco sensitization program conducted
by Mr Manshu of ICanWin Foundation and DTCC Meerut team. We could see a
positive energy among the students charged with enthusiasm to learn about the
ill effects of tobacco and COTPA. After a long deliberation by Mr Manshu, some.
Of the senior students admitted that they have been exposed to tobacco use and
pledged that they would abstain from Tobacco forever. They admitted that they
got into such habit because of a wrong peer group and promised to protect
themselves and their friends from such a killer and cancerous chemical called
