Disaster and Emergency Response Communities
Ministry of Railways, IRCTC and LocalCircles have decided to initiate local Disaster Management communities in every district of India.
These circles will bring together citizens in a town, District Magistrate, District Police, Blood Banks, Hospitals, Volunteers, NGOs so in the Event of a disaster (train accident, natural or any other disaster), the local community can be immediately mobilized for assistance. The Emergency/Disaster Response circle will be easily accessible via mobile phone.
All members of the Make Railways Better circle will automatically be given access to their district level community enabling you to seek or provide assistance.
We will also be inviting other national and district level agencies to participate in this initiative. If you have other ideas on how this initiative can be of use, please share your views.
