Nagpur, India: As part of enhanced security measures amidst rising concerns, Nagpur authorities carried out security drills at key locations across the city on Saturday. The exercises were designed to improve emergency preparedness and coordination among various agencies.
The drills were conducted at critical infrastructure sites, including the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) headquarters, the ordnance factory, and the Air Force Maintenance Command. These locations are deemed highly sensitive, and the drills aimed to assess the readiness of local authorities to handle emergency situations effectively.
Nagpur’s Commissioner of Police, Ravinder Kumar Singal, confirmed that the exercises were successfully completed, with multiple departments collaborating to ensure smooth operations in case of any emergencies. The drills involved simulating different emergency scenarios, testing the response times of police, fire services, and medical teams.
In addition to the on-ground exercises, District Collector Vipin Itankar stated that these drills were part of a wider directive from the state government, following a high-level meeting chaired by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. The government has instructed all districts, including Nagpur, to carry out similar drills, aiming to bolster security and preparedness across the state.
The drills included both day and night exercises to prepare for various emergency conditions. Nighttime drills were particularly focused on scenarios with power outages, testing the ability of agencies to manage crises without external lighting or support.
To raise public awareness, a brief video has been released, explaining the steps citizens should take when hearing emergency sirens. Authorities emphasized the importance of public participation in these drills, encouraging residents to stay informed and prepared to react appropriately in an emergency.
With these proactive measures, Nagpur authorities are working to ensure that the city is better equipped to respond swiftly to any potential threats or crises.
