MOCK DRILL EXERCISE at U.P. State Disaster Management Authority (Lucknow) India

 Yesterday I was called up by Maj Gen (Retd) V K Dutta ji (convener of programme) from  National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) New Delhi regarding to participate in Mock drill exercise which was being organised at UPSDMA head quarter Lucknow (India).

   The exercise was for 23 flood prone districts of Uttar pradesh. Various departments like NDRF, U P Police Radio Headquarter and of course me as a Secretary H.A.L. Scouts Group Amateur Radio Club (VU2LKO) Lucknow participated in exercise.

   It may please be noted that Radio Amateurs presence in Uttar Pradesh is very pitiable hence Ham Radio was on focus of all diginatories.  Our efforts was appreciated by every one present during exercise. Most of them have shown their interest in Amateur Radio.

   I alone was present in programme and there are no Radio Amateur in those district for which the programme was organised. Only oral presentation was made by me.
