Highlighting the hazards of smoking, Mr Hussain said that smoking was the cause of maximum number of deaths occurring in the world, each year.
He made a passionate appeal to the people, particularly youths, to shun the habit of smoking and by doing so they could lead a healthy life and extend support to their families.
