MoS Hansraj Gangaram Ahir stresses the need for educating more people in disaster management

New Delhi: "In the population of 1.25 crore, if 50 lakh people are educated in disaster management, then no government can fully cope with the disaster in the country," said Union Minister of State for Home (MoS), Hansraj Gangaram Ahir. Inaugurating the Disaster Managment Training Civic (in collaboration with NDRF) Ahir said, in the country, the NGOs and social welfare associations will continuously raise awareness by organising training camps.
