India ne cancer ke against apni ladai ko mazboot karte hue apna pehla dedicated cancer van Asha Van launch kiya hai, jo cancer ki early detection aur diagnosis ke liye design kiya gaya hai.
Ye mobile van door-daraz aur grameen ilaako mein logo tak advanced screening facilities pahunchane ka kaam karega, jahan abhi tak cancer detection ke liye bade shehron ke hospitals tak jaana padta tha.
Early detection cancer treatment ki safalta ke liye sabse zaroori factor maana jaata hai, aur Asha Van jaisi initiatives se lakhon logo tak time par screening pahunch sakti hai, jisse cancer se hone wali maut ki dar ko kam kiya ja sakta hai.
Ye India ke healthcare infrastructure ko strengthen karne ke bade plan ka hissa hai. February 2026 tak desh mein 1,84,235 Ayushman Arogya Mandir operational ho chuke hain, aur PM-ABHIM ke tehat 744 Integrated Public Health Laboratories bhi sanction ki gayi hain.
Government data ke mutabik ab tak 40.1 crore hypertension screenings, 39.8 crore diabetes screenings aur 33.8 crore se zyada oral cancer screenings public health system ke through kiye ja chuke hain, jo India ke preventive healthcare model ki badhti reach ko dikhata hai.
