Smoking may now burn more than your lungs, if you happen to do it at the MG Marg here. The State Urban Development and Housing (UD&H) department is mulling a proposal to ban smoking along the MG Marg. The ban comes with a heavy fine for offenders. This decision, which has come a few years after the Marg was declared a "Litter and spit-free zone,' may soon be implemented. This was informed by the department officials at a day-long awareness-cum-capacity building campaign organised for the porters of Gangtok and its surrounding areas here Wednesday. The new rule may come into force once the MG Marg renovation and beautification works are completed. The State Government has banned smoking in public places, but the law has not been implemented in earnest.means during the elections.
