The day serves as a reminder of the critical need to address this global health challenge.<\/span><\/p>\n The National Cancer Control Programme, established in 1975, plays a pivotal role in providing essential treatment facilities across the country and promoting crucial lifestyle changes to combat this deadly disease.<\/p>\n The day\u2019s purpose is to not only raise awareness about cancer but also to garner support for treatments and research efforts aimed at tackling this lethal disease. It serves as a call to action for individuals, communities, and the healthcare system to unite in the fight against cancer.<\/p>\n According to the latest reports, 1.1 million new cancer cases are registered in India every year, out of which two-thirds are reported at an advanced stage. This decreases the survival chances of a cancer patient. The major cause of late detection in most cancer patients is illiteracy and less awareness. Therefore, observing National Cancer Awareness Day is very important in India.<\/p>\n Once people are aware and know how to detect cancer early, maximum lives could be saved. It is important to look for the early signs in a patient and select the right treatment. National Cancer Awareness Day 2023 will be celebrated on Tuesday, 7 November, across the country.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n [ad_2] [ad_1] New Delhi: India observes National Cancer Awareness Day every year on November 7, with a primary focus on raising awareness about the prevention and early detection of cancer, which stands as the second leading cause of death worldwide.
