MP Medha Kulkarni flags concern of cancer among women in rural Maharashtra rises

Medha Kulkarni, Rajya Sabha MP on Monday flagged the rising incidence of cancer among women in rural Maharashtra, urging the Centre to strengthen public health systems to address the issue. Citing data from a recent Sanjivani health screening campaign conducted in the Hingoli district, she noted that over 14,500 women out of 2.93 lakh screened showed symptoms suggestive of cancer. Raising the issue under Special Mentions in the Lok Sabha, Kulkarni described the findings as 'alarming' and called for immediate, targeted interventions by the Union government. 'This data underscores the urgent need for early detection, timely diagnosis, and accessible treatment, particularly in underserved rural areas,' she said later in an official statement issued on Monday. According to official figures cited by Kulkarni, Maharashtra reported the second-highest number of cancer cases in the country in 2023, recording 1.21 lakh new cases—a marginal increase from 1.18 lakh in 2021. 'The rising burden points to a growing crisis, particularly among women in rural areas. Screening initiatives must be accompanied by robust follow-up care and medical infrastructure,' she said. She proposed a four-point action plan, including the establishment of diagnostic facilities for mammography, cervical screening, and biopsy at primary health centres, and the deployment of mobile oncology units in remote areas to facilitate early intervention. She also advocated for targeted awareness campaigns to educate women on early warning signs and reduce stigma, along with the integration of services under existing health schemes such as Ayushman Bharat and Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Jan Arogya Yojana to ensure comprehensive coverage for diagnosis and treatment. Calling the situation a 'silent public health emergency', Kulkarni urged the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to adopt a multi-sectoral, sustained response to address the growing burden of cancer in the state. 'Early detection is only effective when it leads to timely care and better outcomes. We cannot afford a delay in ensuring this continuum of care,' she added.

Sulakshan Kulkarni Named Deputy Head Coach Of Oman Men's Cricket Team

Last Updated: Kulkarni's tenure with the team will officially begin with the T20 World Cup Qualifiers, which Oman will host from October 8 to 18. Former Mumbai wicketkeeper Sulakshan Kulkarni has been appointed as the deputy head coach of the Oman men's national cricket team. Kulkarni's role will be crucial as the team aims to qualify for the 2026 T20 World Cup, scheduled to take place in India and Sri Lanka in February and March of the following year. Oman Cricket confirmed the appointment via social media post on Sunday. Taking to X, the cricket association wrote, 'We're pleased to welcome Sulakshan Kulkarni as the Deputy Head Coach of the Oman Men's National Team! A seasoned coach with a wealth of domestic and international experience, Kulkarni brings depth and able leadership to our coaching setup as we prepare for the upcoming journey on the global stage." His tenure with the team will officially begin with the T20 World Cup Qualifiers, which Oman will host from October 8 to 18. Duleep Mendis, a former wicketkeeper-batter for Sri Lanka, will continue to serve as the head coach of the Oman national cricket team. Kulkarni, who played 65 First-Class matches and 13 List A games, brings extensive experience to his new position. He has previously worked as the head coach for several domestic teams, including Maharashtra, Mumbai, Tamil Nadu, Vidarbha, and Chhattisgarh. Notably, he led Mumbai to a Ranji Trophy victory in the 2012-13 season and was the head coach for the Maharashtra Ranji team last season. Oman has already secured qualification for the Asia Cup in September, although the final status of the tournament remains uncertain and depends on an upcoming Asian Cricket Council meeting. This appointment marks the second time that Oman Cricket has added an Indian, and specifically a Mumbaikar, to its support staff, following Omkar Salvi's tenure as the team's bowling coach a few years ago. The 58-year-old Kulkarni is expected to bring both experienced leadership and strategic contributions to Oman's cricket ambitions.
