DELHI ATTRACTIONS

Red Fort

The Red sandstone walls of the massive Red Fort (Lal Qila) rise 33-m above the

clamour of Old Delhi as a reminder of the magnificent power and pomp of the

Mughal emperors. The walls, built in 1638, were designed to keep out invaders.

Inside is a veritable treasure trove of buildings, including the Drum House, the

Hall of Public Audiences, the white marble Hall of Private Audiences, the Pearl

Mosque, Royal Baths and Palace of Color.

Jama Masjid

Jama Masjid is another marvelous treasure of the Old City, and is the largest

mosque in India. Its courtyard can hold an incredible 25,000 devotees. The

mosque took 13 years to build, and was completed in 1650. A strenuous climb

to the top of its southern tower will reward you with a stunning view across the

rooftops of Delhi.

Qutab Minar

The 73 m tall minaret was constructed in 1192 by Qutab-ud-din Aibak, and

later completed by his successor Iltutmish. The soaring conical tower is an

exquisite example of Indo-Islamic Afghan architecture. The tower has five

distinct storeys, each marked by a projecting balcony and tapers from a 15 m

diameter at the base to just 2.5 m at the top. The first three storeys are made of

red sandstone; the fourth and fifth storeys are of marble and sandstone.

Gandhi Smriti

A visit to Gandhi Smriti will show you the exact spot where Mahatma Gandhi,

affectionately referred to as the Father of the Nation, was assassinated on

January 30, 1948. He lived in the house for 144 days up until the time of his

death. The room that he slept in, kept exactly how he left it, and the prayer

ground where he held a mass congregation every evening are both open to the

public. Plenty of photos, sculptures, paintings, and inscriptions are also on

display.

India Gate

At the centre of New Delhi stands the 42 m high India Gate, an "Arc-de-

Triomphe" like archway in the middle of a crossroad. Almost similar to its

French counterpart, it commemorates the 70,000 Indian soldiers who lost their

lives fighting for the British Army during the World War I. The memorial bears

the names of more than 13,516 British and Indian soldiers killed in the

Northwestern Frontier in the Afghan war of 1919.

Bahai (Lotus) Temple

This temple is built in the shape of a lotus flower and is the last of seven Major

Bahai's temples built around the world and was completed in1986 it is set

among the lush green landscaped gardens. The structure is made up of pure

white marble. The architect Furiburz Sabha choose the lotus as the symbol

common to Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Islam. Adherents of any faith are

free to visit the temple and pray or meditate. Around the blooming petals there

are nine pools of water, which light up, in natural light.

Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute & Research Centre is the Visionary Project of Indraprastha Cancer Society & Research Centre aimed at providing the best of Oncological Care to those who need it.

Indraprastha Cancer Society & Research Centre is a not for profit public society managed by a group of socially responsible, selfless, philanthropists.

Society was formed in the year 1994 under the society’s registration act, 1860. The institute started functioning on 1st July, 1996 when a soft opening was done by Hon’ble Smt. Sonia Gandhi.

However, it was formally inaugurated by the then, President of India, Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma, in the presence of Smt. Sonia Gandhi

The basic philosophy of the institute is to provide the best possible treatment to cancer cases with a human approach at a reasonable cost and patient satisfaction.

Initiated as a 152 bedded hospital, it has been growing steadily and has never looked back. Presently it is a 241 bedded hospital, with state of the art facility for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and is recognised as one of the premium Institutes not only in northern India but also in the entire country.

Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute & Research Centre was the first hospital globally to get concurrent ISO-9000 and ISO – 14001 certification.

The best thing to be noted about this cancer institute is that they not only provide treatment but also take care on all aspects of the patients. For instance they have built a hostel 200 meters away from the hospital for the people who accompany the cancer patients to stay during treatment.

The hospital activities have revolved around clinical services of radiation oncology, surgical oncology and medical oncology supported by radiology and imaging, MRI, Nuclear medicine and laboratory services. The other services that are involved in the patient care include-preventive oncology with its cancer awareness and detection programmes, home cancer care services, physiotherapy and rehabilitation.

A brief of the various specialty departments are follows.

Medical Oncology: Department offers state of the art treatment modalities for both adult and paediatric malignancies including autologous and allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant.

Facilities are available to undertake outpatients' chemotherapy in specialized day care units. Specially trained nursing staff assists in administration of chemotherapy in both day care as well as inpatients.

In order to make administration of chemotherapy safe and more patient friendly, use of central catheters and ports is a routine in the department.

Surgical Oncology: The department consists of units specializing in head & neck; breast & thoracic; gastrointestinal & hepatobilliary; and genitourinary oncological services. All of these are involved in major radical as well as organs preserving surgeries. Laproscopic guided surgeries are also undertaken in situation where they are indicated. High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) at RGCI & RC has been operational for treating organ confined cancer prostate and is the first to be available in an exclusive cancer centre in India. The Initial results are very encouraging.

Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute andResearch Centre, DelhiAn ISO 9002 and ISO 14001 Certified Comprehensive Tertiary Care Cancer Institute

Radiation Oncology: Radiation Oncology refers to the treatment of cancer patients using radiation, which could be X-rays or Gamma rays. The Radiation Oncology department is located on the ground floor, A block of the hospital. The department is equipped with state of the art Linear Accelerators, Simulator, High Dose Rate Remote after - loading Brachytherapy system, dedicated treatment planning computers, and Mould Room to fabricate lead shields and templates in house. Department has been networked to CT scan and MRI with DICOM compatible image transfer capability.

Laboratory Service:

The current practice of medicine requires accurate and prompt laboratory test result to ensure a correct diagnosis, prognostication, monitor response to treatment and prevent diseases / complications. The department is providing facilities include histopathology, cytology, cytochemistry, immune-histochemistry, auto analyzer, automated Elisa reader and automated chemi-luminescence.

The department also has facilities for online interactive discussion on patient’s clinical data and pathology presentation with other centre- both in India and abroad using telepathology network.

Well equipped 24 hours blood bank facility is available in the hospital. It includes collection of blood, and preparation of various blood components.

Nuclear medicine:

The department has been involved in a wide range of nuclear medicine procedures related to diagnostic and therapeutic applications. A state-of-the-art PET-CT has been operational since last 2 years.

Apart from its diagnostic uses, the PET-CT images are routinely used for radiotherapy treatment planning, both for IMRT and IGRT. The department has been actively associated with International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) activities for last many years.

Radiology:

The department excels in various subsections of imaging in line with the internationally accepted imaging protocols. The department offers facilities which includes X-rays, & computed Radiography, multislice spiral CT scan with CT angiography and virtual endoscopy, stereotactic biopsies, therapeutic embolization and TACE facilities etc. The department has the unique distinction of being the first radiology department in the country in 2002 to start radiofrequency ablation of hepatocellular cancers, liver metastases and others

In short, the various departments and staff member of RGCI & RC are striving continuously to maintain the highest standards of patient care in a bid to fulfil the basic philosophy of the Institute, i.e. is to provide the best possible treatment to cancer cases with a humane approach at a reasonable cost and patient satisfaction.
