It is a bitter reality that despite punitive action being taken against those consuming Gutkha in Surat, they are not improving, hence the Health Department has made preparations to increase the strictness in the coming days and double the fine amount.

A team was deployed at the special control and command center to take action against those spreading fear in public places since April 1 last, the health official said. The vandalism done by the team including SI in the Municipal Corporation property is being captured in CCTV. If such people are flying by vehicle, then the fine is being collected sitting at home after getting the address from the RTO on the basis of the vehicle number.
