India Sees Rise in Cancer Cases, Over 15 Lakh in 2024

In India, the number of people getting cancer is going up.

In 2024, over 15 lakh people were diagnosed with cancer.

This number has been increasing since 2019.

More people are also dying from cancer, with the highest number of deaths in 2023.

This is because doctors are getting better at finding cancer, and people are living longer.

The government is trying to help by promoting early detection and providing better care to reduce the impact of this disease.
