    We are deviating the point of discussion from Udupi / Manipal to Dubai. If the police officer has a duty to perform, there should be some law which says that the area were 6 guys were smoking may be a No Smoking Zone. Hotel Management too need to implement guidelines to the smokers not to smoke were it's marked NO SMOKING. Now the zone were it's marked NO SMOKING, whether it's right or wrong, we may not be able to decide. But when the marking took place as No Smoking, there could be some reason for doing so other wise why the Hotel Management took this measure?

    Two weeks back on Friday after having breakfast in Karama area my 2 friends were smoking and same time municipality guy was watching them and recorded in his mobile and fined them AED. 100 each. but instead accepting that, friends argued that there is no sign board for no smoking and that lead them to pay AED. 250/ each!!! one cigarette cost them AED. 250/- after breakfast!!

    If same things happens in India also, then our people will be disciplined.

    What about people spitting, littering public places with waste and using sideways/walls for urinating.
    If at all, there is a sign no-smoking, it’s a violation to smoke. Smoking in coffee restaurants or at any eateries should be prohibited.
