Abstract :

A great evidence is now available to show that rise in the incidence of GIT carcinoma.^[1] It varies from race to race and place to place as per time.^[1] The incidence among the tribal population is higher than non-tribal population. It is evident therefore that environmental factors, food habits and excess consumption of alcohol and tobacco play an important role in the development of GIT cancer, that may be preventable.
