I feel fortunate enough that with the best treatment and strong willpower, I was able to defeat cancer. I am thankful for this new life and enjoy it more now. I would like to tell each one who is battling with cancer to never give up because you can and you will conquer it."
Groups of students from different schools and colleges also joined hands and were part of the event. They presented impactful street dance, musical and cultural performances highlighting the cause of disease and ways of prevention.
