6.13 crore people in India have diabetes. It is also awful to note that out of
every 10 Indians 1 Indian adults between 20-79 years is suffering from diabetes.

always frightening, as the number of diabetics in India grew from 1.9 crore in
1995 to 6.13 crore in 2011. According to the emerging trend it has been
estimated that India would have an appalling 10 crore people with diabetes by
2030.
