Answer: The issue that I have chosen for my letter to the editor is a very important and
serious issue. “Use of E-cigarettes” E-cigarettes are becoming a popular tobacco product among
teenagers, and use among teens is rising. I am not against the use of E-cigarettes, as it is a replacement
for tobacco products. I am of the view that E-cigarettes should be prohibited in teenagers and there
should be regulations for the use of E-cigarettes and safety requirements for the packaging of nicotine
liquid containers.

Competitive marketing campaigns are increasing the use of e-cigarettes. There are no government

the nicotine liquid in refill containers of the e-cigarettes because of that nicotine poisoning is rising. In
December 2014, a one-year-old, boy was a first child to die for liquid nicotine poisoning. The
government should take actions to prohibit the use of e-cigarettes by imposing laws and restrict the
purchase to the age of 21 years. The companies making e-cigarettes should be asked to take measures to
improve the packaging of the liquid nicotine in the refill containers. In addition to this, people should be
