We played the role to remove smoking from community. We used children for improvement of villagers and getting their smoke free environment .We got success to about 19 persons to make sure living smoke free life. Now they have beautiful smiles on their faces. We used meetings with students of village SARPANCH, with other village person .We tried to bring change by the way of community life and spread awareness through campaigns in village and we got a miracle change.

The village Gurgawan is , remotely located between two district Shahjahanpur and Farrukhabad is extremely backward with agriculture .The population of the village is illiterate and works mostly in the fields.Agriculture is a whole family affair and involves all men & women and children also.The children are also drawn to work in their own or also as labourer in other fields especially during sowing season when more hands are required.

During the discussions to identify the major problems of the village, students feel that their village lots of people always not doing any work because they are engaged only smoking and other addictions,because of this the village can not grow and also this impact can be seen on children they also try it among their peers to know that what will be happen-and why they do this….

After thousands attempt illiteracy still lies somewhere that 90% cancer of lungs and other disease caused by smoking so to save life quit smoking…..They were totally unknown with ‘HARMS of SMOKING; So our school’s children arrange a Big campaign and have decided to spread awareness among all villagers. ‘It was a beginning but sufficient to spread awareness’ against smoking…..It is a very positive result came out for our students.
