The prevalence of current tobacco use is (64.5%), higher for the smokeless form (48.5%) than the smoked form (27.7%). The DALYs'
due to air pollution is reported to be 3525.04 per 100,000. One-third, (33.1%) of males over the age of 15 years consumed alcohol,
while the proportion of alcohol use in females was 6.2%. Over 23.4% of the men in the age group of 15-49 years are obese, which is
slightly higher than female prevalence (21.5%). A somewhat higher proportion of males (22.7%) have raised blood pressure than
females (20.9%). The prevalence of raised random blood glucose is 17.7% in women and 19.3% in men.
