Sabina Sarkar, the chairperson of the Rural Welfare Society, an esteemed NGO dedicated to raising awareness about menstrual health and hygiene in rural and remote areas of Assam, sheds light on the alarming prevalence of cervical cancer.

With an unwavering commitment to combating the health issues stemming from poor menstrual hygiene practices, Sabina, alongside a team of dedicated doctors, has embarked on a journey across various parts of the state.

Through the organization of health check-up camps for women, they have made a startling discovery – two to three out of every ten women are diagnosed with cervical cancer.
