The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), 10th Battalion, will press into service a new vehicle which will have facilities to provide uninterrupted internet, VHF and other services during emergencies.
The vehicle with an antenna and 7.5 kva inbuilt generator will be helpful to the force during floods, cyclones and in forests to take up search, rescue and rehabilitation operations, said Commandant Zahid Khan.
“We got the four-wheeler from the NDRF headquarters recently. The vehicle has Very High Frequency (VHF) communication system, internet and satellite communication facilities,” Mr. Khan told The Hindu on Wednesday.
