Union Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss now has a word of advice for West Bengal Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharya -'no smoking please'.
"He (Bhattacharya) is a leader and leaders should be an example for others. He a senior person and does not need my advise (to quit smoking)," Ramadoss said.
A known chain smoker, Bhattacharya reportedly smokes in the privacy of his chamber despite a ban on smoking in the writer's building.
Ramadoss said, "70.2% of men in West Bengal use tobacco products.
Ramadoss also cautioned the northeastern states which have the highest number of smokers in the country.
