Explanation:

Punjab was the first State in India to declare ENDS (Electronic Nicotine Delivery System /E-Cigarettes) as unapproved under Drugs and Cosmetics Act way back in 2014 under the provisions of Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA), 2003, when very few people knew about these harmful products. Under these new regulations, promoters will be prosecuted under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act for selling unapproved drugs and could end up serving a year in jail.
