AVI calls for nationwide protest against the e-cigarette ban ordinance

Announces a nationwide call for vapers to protest the ban ordinance in multiple cities on September 28, 2019, coordinated by Jagannath Sarangapani (described as the protests’ national coordinator). Samrat Chowdhery is quoted condemning the ordinance and citing over 11 crore Indian smokers denied access to harm reduction alternatives. The source document names a city/venue inconsistently — its title references Hyderabad’s Lamakaan venue, but the body text (evidently reused from a template) describes Bangalore vapers assembling at Mumbai’s Marathi Patrakar Sangh — so this entry deliberately doesn’t pin down a specific single city or venue. Not previously on the site.
