In Lucknow, experts have expressed serious concerns over the increasing number of tobacco-related cancer cases among women, particularly due to the use of smokeless tobacco and exposure to passive smoking. This alarming trend was highlighted during a campaign organized by the Indian Dental Association (IDA) and the Uttar Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation (UPMRC) at Hazratganj Metro Station on World No Tobacco Day. The campaign aimed to raise awareness about oral cancer, its symptoms, and prevention methods. Prof Pragya Pandey, honorary secretary of IDA Lucknow, pointed out that more women are being affected by these health issues and emphasized the importance of regular oral screenings and timely treatment to save lives. Informational pamphlets were distributed to commuters to educate them about the dangers of tobacco use and the importance of cessation. The initiative was led by Dr Arvinder Singh, president of IDA Lucknow, and Panchanan Mishra, joint general manager (public relations) of UPMRC, highlighting a collaborative effort to combat tobacco-related health risks.
