The Tobacco Control Act made it illegal to smoke in public places ranging from disco halls, cinemas, offices, hospitals, factories, bars and eateries to shopping malls, public transport and residential houses.

Owners of such places should designate a smoking zone that must be well ventilated and separated from the public area, the new law stipulates."
