The interim government has decided to ban the import of e-cigarettes and electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS) by adding them to the Import Policy Order's prohibited items list. The decision, aimed at protecting public health, was driven by the Health Services Division and finalized during an Advisory Council meeting chaired by Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus. The council also reviewed the draft of the "Cyber Security Ordinance, 2024," postponing final approval for further revisions.
