Joint Mock Drill on CBRN/Earthquake preparedness and de-briefing by BVFCL

A highly successful joint mock drill exercise, focusing on CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear) preparedness and earthquake response, took place today at the Ammonia-II Technical Building and the surrounding area near the Horton Sphere (A-II) at BVFCL, Namrup. The scenario entailed a simulated partial collapse of the Ammonia-II Technical Building due to an earthquake disaster registering 8.5 on the Richter scale, coupled with an ammonia gas leakage near the Horton Sphere (A-II). This meticulously coordinated mock drill was a collaborative endeavor involving the Fire and Safety Department of BVFCL, NDRF (National Disaster Response Force), CISF BVFCL Unit, local civil defense authorities, the local police station, and the BVFCL Medical Team. Following the mock drill, an informative de-briefing session was conducted by NDRF. Key insights and valuable suggestions were provided during the session by the Atish Kumar, Asstt. Commandant of CISF and Satyajit Misra, General Manager (Marketing) of BVFCL, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the exercise. BVFCL management extends its heartfelt appreciation to NDRF, civil defense authorities, CISF BVFCL Unit, and the entire BVFCL team for their active and dedicated participation, which played a pivotal role in the resounding success of this event.
