Brief Summary   Smokeless tobacco use is a significant public health concern, particularly among pregnant women.
 In India, smokeless tobacco is widespread and its use is increasing, posing health risks to both the mother and the fetus, such as stillbirth, low birth weight, and sudden infant death syndrome.
 According to the National Family Health Survey-4 (2015-2016), approximately 5-8 percent of pregnant women in India use tobacco in some form.
  The harmful effects on fetal health are similar to those of cigarette smoking.
 The guide’s remarks state that this study will provide valuable information for planning preventive measures for the safety of mothers and children.
