India's Tobacco Industry Requires Urgent Modernization

India's tobacco industry, which supports many people, needs an upgrade.

Currently, India exports cheap tobacco, but other countries turn it into more valuable products.

To compete and improve health, India needs to create a modern, traceable system.

This would ensure fair prices for farmers, better health regulations, and align with global trends in non-combustible tobacco products.

Other countries show that by governing the industry better, India could increase its revenue and improve public health.
