Disaster Management Wing
Preparedness, Response & Coordination - Disaster Response Force provides 24/7 rescue, emergency response, and flood management.
Vulnerable Water Logging Areas
Critical flooding and waterlogging hot spots monitored across the three major commissionerate limits. DRF teams are pre-positioned adjacent to these monitored zones with heavy machinery, high-discharge dewatering pumps, and rescue motorboats.
When rain gauges record >20mm rainfall per hour, automated alarms alert the local DRF subcommanders. Portable high-capacity suction pumps are dispatched to monitored checkpoints within 10 minutes to maintain active traffic flows.
