    Solution

    Karnataka High Court had declared the government rule regarding pictorial warning on cigarette packets unconstitutional. According to Tobacco Products (Packaging and Labelling) Amendment Rules, 2014 the pictorial warning must cover 85% of principal area of package. Till the government frames new rules, the earlier rule of 2008 demanding 40% of area coverage in pictorial warning would be in force.
