🏃♂️ Run for a Cause | World No Tobacco Day 2025 | 01.06.2025
Honoured to be invited as the Guest of Honour at the Noida 10K Run Challenge 2025—a vibrant celebration of health, fitness, and a tobacco-free lifestyle, hosted at Seth M.R. Jaipuria School, Greater Noida early morning 1st of June 2025
Over 800 spirited participants joined this early morning fitness fest. I had the privilege to deliver a motivational message and then run 3 km alongside sports enthusiasts and change-makers.
Ms. Bhavna Gaur, Ms Kumud, Ms. Sheela, Mr Mukesh Jain, Mr. Abhishek Singh and many more with whom I had a stint. And of course Lakshay my son was also there to run 10 km.
As a Cancer Surgeon and Senior Director at Max Hospital Vaishali, my message was clear and urgent:
💬 LIVE FREE. BREATHE FREE.
🚫 Don’t fall for surrogate advertisements—they glamorize addiction.
✅ BE SMART. DO NOT START.
✅ QUITTING IS POSSIBLE — with structured medical therapy & counselling.
✅ Do a monthly self-check for any “Chota Daana” (suspicious oral lesion). Early detection = better outcomes.
🎯 Become a Tobacco Marshal in your community. Educate, support, inspire.
