Federation of Noida Resident Welfare Association (FONRWA) supported National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) for its proposed training programme for Noida residents in disaster management.

The NDRF has decided to launch the programme with an aim to prepare trained volunteer force which could respond to any emergency arising from natural calamities like earthquake or flood.

During a meeting with NDRF DIG SS Guleria at the NDRF headquarters in New Delhi, FONRWA President, NP Singh, offered to help the Central force find 400 motivated youths from different sectors to join the volunteer group.

These volunteers will be given training in rescue and relief operation on par with NDRF personnel.

Speaking to City Spidey, Singh said Noida RWAs will provide NDRF community centres as venue for training session.

FONRWA, through a circular, urged its member RWAs to suggest names for volunteers, from their respective sectors, willing to participate in the training camps.
