The Malabar Cancer Centre Society (MCCS) launched its Anti-Tobacco Drive in 1989 during the Chavassery Village level CCCP at the grass root and has remained steadfast in its mission ever since. Kannur, historically recognized as the citadel of the bidi industry, was home to the prominent Dinesh Bidi Company. At its peak, the industry supported the livelihoods of approximately 1.75 lakh people. Through relentless grassroots efforts, house-to-house awareness campaigns and personal outreach, MCCS succeeded in sparking a dramatic shift in public perception. These efforts played a pivotal role in dismantling the bidi industry’s stronghold in the region. In 2009, MCCS undertook a new challenge, advocating for tobacco-free environments within Kerala’s prison system. After five years of persistent efforts and sustained dialogue with the government, a landmark decision was made. In 2014, the Kerala government officially banned smoking in all state prisons, making Kerala the first region in the world to implement such a prohibition. This historic move set a precedent, later inspiring other Indian states and countries across the globe to adopt similar measures. Due to the persistent efforts of MCCS volunteers in the field coupled with intensive campaign the tobacco incidence is brought down by 85% in the Region. Of course, thanks to regulation too, for which we were campaining relentlessly.
