Mr. Satish Chandra IAS, Additional Chief Secretary (Health and Family Welfare), Punjab will be the Chief Guest. Sh. Pankaj Vohra Regional Director Indian Council of Cultural Relations, Government of India will preside over the function.
Through the hilarious comedy play in Punjabi, humour and entertainment will be created, but the play give a solid message of pathos embedded in the theme of the play i.e misery, disease and death related to obesity and its underlying causative factors like consumption of white poisons and excessive use of mobiles.
Obesity exposes one to serious ailments like diabetes, heart ailments, hypertension, stroke, anemia depression, sexual problems and unproductive life in the long run. With a single intervention of reducing calories and salt in foods in general, and intake of processed foods in particular, most ailments can be prevented, observed Dr. Kumar.
