Fortis Leads the Fight Against Tobacco
Say No to Tobacco
Partners with DMRC to Launch Awareness Drive @Metro Stations in Delhi/NCR

Fortis Healthcare proudly supports World No Tobacco Day through a focused awareness campaign across Delhi Metro stations. Backed by verified information from the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare (MoHFW) and other government bodies, this initiative is aimed at educating and empowering citizens to lead tobacco-free lives.

 

Why This Matters

Tobacco kills over 1.3 million people in India every year. Despite years of intervention, the tobacco cessation rate remains around 3%, prompting a shift in strategy: prevention through awareness.

At Fortis, we’re taking this message where it matters—to the public, in the public, starting with this landing page as your one-stop resource for trusted, government-backed guidance.

FAQs

  • What’s the first step to quitting tobacco?
    Acknowledge the habit and make a firm decision to quit. Set a quit date and inform your family and friends—they can offer crucial support.
  • Are there any tools or services that can help me quit?
    Yes! Use support systems like the National Quitline (1800-11-2356), mCessation (Missed call: 011-22901701), and tobacco cessation centres across India that offer counselling and medication.
  • Is quitting tobacco suddenly (cold turkey) better than gradually reducing it?
    Both methods can work. However, gradual reduction with the help of a healthcare provider and support services often leads to better long-term success.
  • What can I do when cravings hit?
    Distract yourself—drink water, chew gum, take a walk, or call a friend. Cravings usually pass in 5–10 minutes. Mindfulness and breathing exercises also help.
  • Is it too late to quit if I’ve been using tobacco for years?
    It’s never too late. Quitting at any age improves health—within days your body starts healing, and long-term risks for cancer, stroke, and heart disease drop significantly.
