From the founding of the Vascular Society of India on 6th August 1994, this date has become the Indian National Vascular Day. The VSI is organising a walkathon across 34 cities in India on Sunday 4th August to promote awareness of vascular illness. Neighbouring countries such as Nepal and Bangladesh have also confirmed thier involvement.
The walkathon will involve Vascular surgeons and members of the public starting at 7AM, IST. Local celebrities (politicians, bureaucrats, film personalities, socialites) often attend and give short talks.
If you are in that part of the world on Sunday 4th August, why not join in the fun! Registration is free and the entire event is sponsored by the Vascular Society of India with no Industry involvement.
