| About Us |
A meaningful non-stop journey to serve the distressed humanity, to wipe out tears from the eyes of the Cancer-stricken poor people – a challenging task indeed. But BARASAT CANCER RESEARCH & WELFARE CENTRE has accepted it with a missionary zeal. CANCER must go – with the daring determination an ambitious invasion made its significant start from a foggy morning of 1991. Today with the steady beginning of majestic 2010 the fog has almost disappeared and a transparent bluish sky has become visible. Traversing a long way to fight out Cancer the ‘CENTRE’ (BCRWC) through its relentless services in the field of Compassionate Cancer-care has added so many sparkling feathers to its winning cap. And the resplendent outcome, right now, is its setting the stage to build up a world-class multi-dimensional Cancer complex – and the zenith aspiring project has been named - ‘Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Institute of Oncology’. A unique venture no doubt, as it will thoroughly change the existing Cancer-care system with its revolutionary concepts and well-planned activities. |

A Fancy’s Child may comment — ‘Out, out brief candle .. Life is but a walking Shadow’, .... but our immediate reaction to this pessimistic outlook is an emphatic ‘No” .... Barasat Cancer Research & Welfare Centre has a promise to materialize the Herculean task of crushing the ‘killer’ CANCER, and enkindle a radiant hope that the Thorny Today will be turned into a Flowery Tomorrow .... And we believe from the core of our heart that the sunny smiling scenario will surely infuse the stirring spirit into the sinking souls.
BARASAT CANCER RESEARCH & WELFARE CENTRE, now a Friend and Guide to the helpless poor Cancer-stricken people, has amply proved that the firm determination to serve the distressed humanity will ultimately bring the desired result ....
.... And accordingly, we are getting stronger everyday .... We, in our Cancer Hospital of 65 bed capacity can now accommodate 65 patients in place of 25 and provide all the available sophisticated services. It has become possible for our tireless striving. After inauguration of the Radiotherapy & Nuclear Medicine Department, (27.02.2004) very recently the inauguration of ITU, Post Intensive Care Unit and the New Operation Theatre recently has certainly established an exclusive identity of BARASAT CANCER RESEARCH & WELFARE CENTRE....
