Abstract
High prevalence of tobacco use is seen in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). In the recent years, tobacco users have switched to alternatives falling under the framework of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS). This review provides an overview of tobacco control-related policies in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan, and suggested recommendations to bridge this gap to address Tobacco-free Nations. This paper's findings are relevant for developing countries worldwide that have a high tobacco-related health burden, a complex landscape of use, and inadequate resources to offer tobacco cessation and smokeless tobacco control.
