Sangrur, Aug. 12 -- Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann on Monday flagged off 12 mobile cancer care buses in Dhuri, aimed at bringing cancer detection and awareness campaigns to the doorsteps of villagers across the state. The initiative, launched in collaboration with the World Cancer Care Organisation, is part of a larger effort to address the growing concerns about cancer in the state. Speaking on the occasion, CM Mann said, "These buses will travel from village to village offering free screenings and raising awareness about cancer. The mobile buses will offer a variety of tests including mammography for breast cancer in women, Pap smears for cervical cancer, PSA test for prostate cancer in men, oral screening for mouth and throat cancer, bone density tests, blood tests, and other diagnostic tests." "We have developed a 'diagnosis stigma' that often prevents us from getting tested. We fear getting tested. But early detection can save lives and cancer is curable." He also announced that the first 20 cancer detection camps would be held in Sangrur villages. He said that a homeopathy college would soon be established in the district with the help of Centre. Mann also dedicated freedom fighter Jathedar Kartar Singh Darvesh Senior Secondary School to Sangrur, which has been upgraded into a School of Eminence at a cost of Rs.3.40 crore. He highlighted the improvements made to the school, including the construction and renovation of an auditorium, entrance gate, park, workshops, laboratories and modern classrooms. The CM also dedicated a Government Nursing Training School to Sangrur, constructed at a cost of Rs.7.81 crore. This state-of-the-art facility offers a three-year general nursing and midwifery (GNM) course, and has modern laboratories, a hostel, smart classrooms, a library and also school bus service....
