This Meerut doctor’s mission: Match ‘medical kundali’ before marriage
HE HAS RECEIVED APPRECIATION FROM GOVERNOR OF BENGAL & IMA
MEERUT: While matching of horoscopes is a must ritual in arranged marriages in India, a doctor is on a mission to make mandatory the matching of ‘medical kundali’ of the prospective brides and grooms.
“If like horoscopes, we get into the practice of getting matched the medical history of the bride and the groom, this could help save parents and children from many diseases as timely treatment of ailments could be done,” says Dr Anil Naushran, who is set to embark on an expedition to spread awareness against AIDS on World AIDS Day.
“I will be cycling to different locations across the country to spread the message,” says Naushran, who is MD in pathology.
His cycle expedition to India Gate in Delhi will begin from Ghantaghar in Meerut on Tuesday.
Dr Naushran is on a mission to save people from deadly disease like AIDS since September 2018 and is also pushing his agenda of ‘medical kundali’.
“AIDS is 99% sexually transmitted disease and it could be prevented by sensitizing people about safe sex and how they could protect themselves from this deadly disease which still have no definite treatment,” he says while revealing that the idea of ‘medical kundali’ and spreading AIDS awareness came into his mind when a newly-married girl visited her pathology lab for a test and was detected HIV positive.
“She was the age of my daughter and had got the deadly disease from her husband. It was changing movement of my life and decided to protect lives,” says the doctor who has cycled to Kolkata, Mumbai, Chandigarh, Karnal, Ayodhya, Uttarkakhand and many other locations to propagate the message.
He has also received appreciation from the Governor of Bengal, Indian Medical Associations and other organization.
