India, the Diabetic Capital of the Globe
by Kunuthur Srinivasa Reddy on Feb 16, 2005 05:12 PM

Sensationalism and Science do not go together if not they drive in opposite direction.It has become a fashion for every body including Indians to target India for all evils of the World whetherfor disorder or disease.It is no doubt that there has been steep growth in diabetic population in India essentially because of the decline incommunity life and spiritual outlook among people. Further, craze for quick and illgotten wealth, intolerance to others fanned by fragmentation of people based on caste,creed, race, region and religion, majority and minority etc.are the added factors of mental stress which in turn triggers a disorder like 'Diabetes'.One should examine the cause-effect relationship and effort to remove the cause to retard the growth of any disorder for which political will is what is essentially called for.
