Sir, there was a vacant plot between my house and that of my neighbour. We are residing there since 23 years. Recently the owner of the vacant plot has built some shops and started giving on rental. There is a kirana shop which sells cigarettes and pan masalas. Smokers come and consume tobacco due to which ladies of our house cannot stand outside. Recently a steel fabrication shop has also started. Since it is a steel fabrication shop there is no need to explain the problems that we are facing. My parents are aged 83 & 74 years. Similarly the other neighbour is also aged above 80 years.
