The Pan Dabbawalas never come to ask you whether you need to buy Gutkha or not. They do so by their clever hidden way. Moreover, the sales of this dangerous product, which was already banned in Telangana increasing. It is shocking to know from where this product reaches the pan shops in Hyderabad.
When you go straight forward to a pan shop and ask for Gutkha they say it’s not available by your face reading. Any person with the intention of grabbing a Gutkha from a pan shop needs a strong character to speak in simplicity. And as he’s habituated to it, the pan shop people will definitely sell it to him. In fact Gutkha chewers are not habituated to it but are totally addicted to this dangerous product. This product will affect the health of the person in such a manner that he cannot even eat spicy food. Thereby resulting in cancer and ultimately his career and life will be in doldrums.
Many police officers buy Gutkha from the pan shop as they too are addicted to this highly injurious to health product.
After the ban the Gutkha has been on sale at a very high price. This sale is illegal and needs checks at all the pan shops in the city.
