Draft:Delhi Civil Defence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Delhi Civil Defence is a crucial organization dedicated to protecting the citizens and infrastructure of Delhi in times of emergencies. Formed under the "Civil Defence Act, 1968," it operates on the principles of emergency operations, including mitigation, prevention, preparedness, response, and relief. Volunteers play a vital role in the organization, and any Indian citizen or subject of Bhutan or Nepal over the age of 18 can enroll, provided they meet certain eligibility criteria. The Delhi Civil Defence's efforts are aimed at saving lives, minimizing property damage, maintaining production continuity, upholding public morale, and ensuring law and order during disasters.[1][2][3]
