Rise in cancers in India have put an increasing amount of pressure on hospitals to handle the very toxic cytotoxic drugs. Cancer annually affects 10 million people and causes 6 million deaths worldwide. It is expected that 300 million new cases of cancer and 200 million deaths from the disease will occur globally in the next 25 years, with almost two third of cases arising in developing countries (WHO, 1999).

Toxics Link in collaboration with India International Centre (IIC) is going to organize a Public Lecture on "Water Scarcity in Delhi - Soaring demand or Mismanagement?" at India International Centre (IIC), Lodhi Road, New Delhi on 7th August, 2012.
