Rajshekhar C. Jaka, founder and Chairman of Sankalp Chase Cancer Foundation and Research Trust, said it was started with an aim to chase cancer in out of society but what is the problem is that most of the people in India, don’t even report their problem because of various reasons like poverty, negligence, ignorance, fear of being diagnosed with it, fear of social ostracism attached with cancer and fear of side effects associated with the treatment.
