We at Sangeeta Darvekar Charitable Trust are putting all our efforts in creating awareness of evils of Tobacco use and resultant oral cancer.
We are extremely thankful to TATA MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, Mumbai for all the help they have provided specially Dr Ketayun Dinshaw, Dr Surendra Shastri, Dr Anil D'Cruz, Mr. Humayun Jafri and Mr. Uday Gadgil.
Oral cancer is the most common cancer in India and according to Dr Geoff Craig "People are dying of oral cancer because of ignorance".
Dr Surendra Shastri head of preventive oncology at TATA MEMORIAL HOSPITAL gave us a stunning information that "There are about 7,00,000 new cases of cancers every year in India out of which tobacco related cancers are about 3,00,000. Cost of treatment of oral cancer is about 3.5 lakh. This can be completely prevented by simple changes in lifestyle and regular screening and even have health benefits that reach beyond cancer."
About 2000 deaths a day in India is tobacco related.
According to the B.B.C "4 in 10 of all cancers in India are oral cancers".
On the eve of "World Anti-Tobacco day" on 31st May we organize many programs to create awarenesss on dangers of "Tobacco consumption".
