Our History

Our journey began under the banner of District Diabetes Forum 24N (DDF 24N), where we organized our first grand academic symposiums in February 2019 and August 2019 at Swissotel, Kolkata, and Novotel, Kolkata, respectively. These events set the foundation for our commitment to providing top-notch educational opportunities and fostering a network of esteemed academicians.

In March 2023, we had the privilege to collaborate with the RSSDI West Bengal Chapter to host the OUTREACH CME event at Airport City Hotel, Kolkata. This successful event featured 12 eminent RSSDI faculties and over 80 renowned physicians from Kolkata and its outskirts.

Continuing our mission, we held our Annual Scientific Conference on Diabetes, BKDAF’s Annual Update, in December 2023 at the Fern Residency, Kolkata. This conference brought together over 15 distinguished academicians and approximately 100 delegates, reinforcing our dedication to promoting excellence in diabetes care.
