Detailed general, obstetrical, medical history noted. The outcome of cytopathological examination, as per “The Bethesda System” provided by pathology department was studied. The smears were classified as normal, negative for intraepithelial lesion and epithelial cell abnormalities. Results: Total 100 patients were sent for cytopathological examination for screening of cervical cancer (N=100). The most common age group of patients was 31-40 Years. Most of them were Hindu (90%), belonged to lower socioeconomic status (70%) and multipara (92%). The commonest complain recorded was WDPV (31%). The outcome of cervical smear examination showed Inflammation (46%), normal smear (16%), and other findings. The cytopathological findings suggestive of Carcinoma cervix was seen in 2 patients. Conclusions: Occurence of Carcinoma cervix can be prevented as it has a long pre-invasive period. In India, most of these cases come to the attention at an advanced stage when hardly any curable management is possible. Hence, screening programms plays a major role in prevention of cervical cancer
