India has faced numerous heat wave-related deaths in recent years, prompting a shift towards proactive disaster management.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday unveiled a plan to ensure no lives are lost in India due to heat waves in the coming years, emphasizing a shift from reactive to proactive disaster management. This initiative, under the Modi government, aims for zero casualties and minimal property damage across all disasters, including cyclones, earthquakes, and floods.
The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) was awarded the President's Colour for its exceptional service, marking a milestone in its 20th year of operation. Shah noted that India has become an undisputed global leader in disaster management, with the NDRF playing a vital role, especially as disaster incidents increase due to global warming.
The NDRF has conducted over 12,000 operations, saving 1.5 lakh lives and rescuing nine lakh people. To enhance synergy between central and state forces, a 'co-location' initiative has been launched in Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.
