The event featured inspiring testimonials from survivors, including AmaleshChoudhury from Cooch Behar and BibhabotiBiswas from Jalpaiguri, who credited Medica’s advanced treatment for their recovery. Chief Guest Mr. DebasisSarkar, a veteran journalist and cancer survivor, shared his journey, emphasizing the role of early diagnosis and quality medical care. Cultural performances by survivors, including a solo dance by Dolly Majumdar, added to the spirit of hope.
