One step forward for the Non-Communicable Disease program of India.
In what we see as an important step in the Government Program for Prevention and Control of Non Communicable Diseases, J. P Nadda, the Hon’ble Health Minister, Shripad Yesso Naik, Minister of State (Health & Family Welfare) and Dr Henk Bekedam, the Head of WHO (India), interacted with NCD leaders from all over the country, at a meeting in Delhi on 22 June 2016.
Pallium India was pleased to be a part of this important event with other members of the Healthy India Alliance – the conglomeration of non-government organizations in the country, working in the field of non-communicable diseases. Needless to say, palliative care forms an important part of NCD control.
