Timeline
Saroj Gupta FRCR (5 December 1929 – 21 May 2010) was an Indian oncologist and the founder of the Cancer Centre Welfare Home & Research Institute in West Bengal.

After attaining his MBBS Gupta joined the Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute as a Consultant Radiotherapist in 1956.
While working at the Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute, he witnessed how cancer patients from remote areas were often refused admittance due to a lack of available beds.
When the patients were eventually admitted, they were often already in advanced stages of cancer.
Dr. Gupta was determined to provide beds and treatment for them as soon as possible.
Gupta wanted to create a place for cancer patients and their families where they could be at peace, surrounded by nature, and supported by modern treatment.
He had a clear vision about setting up a modernized hospital, even though at that time there were very few private facilities available in the city of Kolkata.
In 1965, he went to England and completed a fellowship (FRCR) at the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons, England.
In the early 1970s, with the help of a team of doctors and social workers, Gupta started to build a cancer hospital on 16-acre territory that had been donated to him.
In 1973, his dream of a creating a home for patients suffering from cancer was fulfilled.
Originally the hospital contained 25 beds, but after three decades the number of beds had increased to 254 and separate facilities for pediatric cancer had been built.
He scripted a drama to raise funds for Kolkata's first modernized cancer hospital at a nominal cost, playing the role of a cancer patient.
According to Subir Ganguly, senior oncologist, "his contribution to oncology remains unmatched."
In 1980, after his voluntary retirement from Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute, he engaged himself fully in Thakurpukur hospital.
He received India's fourth-highest civilian award, the Padma Shri, in 1987 and also became Sheriff of Kolkata in 1989.
