IntroductionWhat is AIDSThe Day in India

It was in 1986, when the first AIDS case was detected in

India. After the detection of AIDS, the Government of
India took a decision to set up the National AIDS
Committee in the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare
 to combat the epidemic.
The National AIDS Control Organization (NACO) was
established in 1992-99 after the launch of the National
AIDS Control Programme (NACP).
Initially, the research for HIV infections was carried
out only among the children. But, gradually this notion
was demolished completely which resulted in the
involvement of research activities among people coming
from any strata of life irrespective of age, sex and
nationality.
.

On the World AIDS Day, officials from the Government and

other NGOs wear the red ribbon, the global symbol of
AIDS/ HIV awareness and distribute condoms among the
people.
AIDS can be defined as an evil for our society and we
have to combat this evil through the weapons of
knowledge, care, respect and dignity for the
HIV-infected persons. People suffering from this disease
are not untouchable and they have equal rights to live
in this society.
