"Awareness of the disease and detection at an early stage is important to reduce the risk of complications," Mallick added in a statement.
Diabetes prevalence has been rising more rapidly in middle- and low-income countries and the World Health Organization (WHO) has projected that diabetes will be the seventh leading cause of death in the world in 2030.

Diet plays a significant role in controlling diabetes. Most cases of diabetes are preventable with healthy lifestyle changes.
There will also be a quiz validated by nutritionist Neha Chandna as a part of the campaign which will let people know if they are pre-diabetic or are more likely to get diabetes in the future, the statement added.
Targeting diabetics, Adani Wilmar earlier launched FortuneVIVO Diabetes-Care Oil.
"Our VIVO Oil has ingredients proven to improve insulin sensitivity, helping reduce blood-sugar levels and efficiency of anti-diabetic medicines," Mallick said.
