Since
1992
A group of individuals joined together in 1992 with the vision of the Cachar Cancer Hospital Society because they thought that the region sorely neede Read mored a cancer hospital, as the only one in the northeast was located in far-off Guwahati. The Society's three main goals were to: (1) raise public awareness of cancer, encourage the adoption of preventative measures, and seek early detection; (2) create a full-fledged cancer hospital to offer significant services to all those in need; and (3) establish a centre for cancer research.
Action
The Society operates the Cachar Cancer Hospital and Research Centre (CCHRC), providing comprehensive cancer care including prevention, treatment, palliation, education, and research, with a focus on serving marginalized and economically impoverished patients.

Impact
CCHRC treats over 5,000 patients annually, with nearly 80% being daily wage workers, agricultural and tea garden laborers, and about 75% receiving free or subsidized treatment.
Vision & Mission
The vision is to become a state-of-the-art cancer center ensuring no preventable cancers, no treatment denials due to lack of resources, no undignified deaths, and no treatment-induced poverty. The mission is to provide comprehensive cancer care to those in need, especially the underserved.
