     Dr.Muthulakshmi Reddy formed a Cancer relief fund in 1949, and with the support of the WIA she established the cancer hospital in 1954 in a small humble way and it has grown to one of the best  state – of – art Cancer hospitals in the world today.
    The Cancer Institute, since its inception has been carrying on a relentless fight against cancer under great odds. It has striven against near insurmountable obstacles of financial difficulties and an almost indifferent ambience, to fulfil the objectives of its founder ... bringing to the poorest in the land the most refined scientific technology and excellent patient care.The Cancer Institute (WIA) is a symbol of man’s eternal quest to conquer disease and an inspiration that reaches out to humanity.  
      The Institute is spread over 9 acres in Chennai, South India. The hospital houses 423 beds of which 297 are free. Over 1,25,000 patients are seen annually. They are drawn from all over India, parts of South and South East Asia. Over 66% of them are indigent and are treated free of charge. The hospital has state- of- the- art facilities for diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of cancer as well as rehabilitation. Living its mission of providing the state- of- the- art treatment to people with all types of cancers, the Institute is equipped with world class medical facilities. It houses a hospital, College of Oncological Sciences, an exclusive division for Preventive Oncology and a research center.
    Chip in whole heartedly to lend a helping hand to help those unfortunate souls who need our help!

Ouch! Our potty roads...

Travelling makes one think and rethink; the reason,our dilapidated roads. Going out is no longer a pleasure whether you are riding your vehicle or by public transport. The speed breakers are constantly cropping up to add to the agony. They come in all shapes and sizes; no standards, just a lump of tar meant to break your back or the axle. Many of these speed bumps blend in with the road and are invisible to the motorists except when you come close. Result a screeching halt and frayed nerves.
  I really feel we need to get a movement started to demand for better roads, standardised speed breakers and safer road layouts. The local administration should have the power and the responsibility to lay, maintain and improve the roads in their jurisdiction.The people too must be empowered to pullup the local officials for not caring for the infrastructure development of the local bodies.
   The bone breakers and non-standard speed breakers must be removed and well marked standard speed humps must be laid out in well researched locations.
