"The work of a doctor is not limited to acquiring a degree but he can do a lot of new things for the society as his area is full of opportunities," Adityanath said.
He said despite being aware of the ill effects of tobacco consumption, people were resorting to chewing pan and smoking cigarettes.
"Doctors could play a vital role in this and motivate people to stop. AIIMS has started a campaign for tobacco control and the state government will give full cooperation," he said.
Medical Dialogues team had earlier reported that the Union Health Ministry had notified new specified warnings for all tobacco products by making an amendment in the Cigarettes and other Tobacco Products (Packaging and Labelling) Rules, 2008.
The amended rules will be applicable from December 1 and remain valid for a period of 12 months.
All tobacco products manufactured, imported or packaged on or after December 1, 2022, will have to display with the textual Health Warning as 'TOBACCO CAUSES PAINFUL DEATH'.
Those manufactured, imported or packaged on or after December 1, 2023, will display another image with the textual health warning 'TOBACCO USERS DIE YOUNGER'.
