The Emblem of Amala portrays a hand in between a person and a crab. Crab is the universally accepted symbol for Cancer. Human being in the symbol denotes patients to be cured. Here the hand is of God's - representing healing hand of God shared by doctors, nurses, staff and you who care and help patients. On close observation, one can see that a sword is passed through the crab. Sword symbolizes our pledge and activities to fight Cancer.
