Ganagandharvan K.J Yesudas inaugurated a state-wide programme on smoking at St.Teresa's College on 26th October,2007. "Youngsters can do much on this issue and the drive against tobacco must come from one's mind. We should change ourselves before changing others." He advised the students to fight against the social evil by creating awareness on how much threat it poses to health. In his presidential address, Justice K. Narayana Kurup said that passive smoking poses more threat than direct smoking. The programme was organised to spread awareness as the government agencies have failed to implement the law which bans public smoking. Principal Rev. Sr. Christabelle welcomed the gathering.
