Proactive Approach Required To Handle Natural Disasters: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday pitched for a "proactive rather than reactive" approach and the use of future technologies in handling natural disasters to minimize damage.

Inaugurating the third session of the National Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (NPDRR) here, the prime minister said, "We cannot stop natural disasters but we can come up with systems to minimize damage from them." "We have to be proactive rather than reactive. What was the situation in the country (earlier) for being proactive and what is the situation now? Even after five decades of Independence, there was no law in the country to tackle disasters," he said.

He said that after the 2001 earthquake in Kutch, Gujarat was the first state to come up with a disaster management act. On the basis of this act, the Centre enacted the National Disaster Management Act in 2005, he said.

Subsequently the National Disaster Management Authority was set up.

The prime minister said traditional housing and town planning process should be enriched with future technology to better manage disaster planning, and added real-time assessment of resilience of local infrastructure was the need of the hour.

He said it should be a matter of pride for every Indian that the entire world has applauded the country's disaster relief work after the massive earthquake in Turkiye and Syria.

Speaking on the occasion, Home Minister Amit Shah lauded the work of the Indian relief and rescue contingent in Turkiye and Syria. The massive earthquake last month killed at least 50,000 people and injured many more in these two countries.

During the programme, the prime minister felicitated awardees of the Subhash Chandra Bose Aapda Prabandhan Puraskar for 2023 -- Odisha State Disaster Management Authority (OSDMA) and the Lunglei Fire Station, Mizoram.

The NPDRR is a multi-stakeholder platform constituted by the government to facilitate dialogue and share experiences, views, ideas, action-oriented research and explore opportunities in the area of disaster risk reduction.

No Longer Blacklisted: J&K Administration Defends Using Private Exam Firm

The Jammu and Kashmir administration today defended its controversial decision to hire a previously blacklisted private agency for holding recruitment exams, which has led to protests in the region.

Rajesh Shama, Chairman of Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board, also justified the change in conditions of tender to award contract to Aptech Limited, the agency that was blacklisted by many states and penalised by the Delhi High Court.

"The company was blacklisted. It's not blacklisted now. It was blacklisted for three years in 2019 and blacklisting period ended in 2022," said Mr Sharma. "Legally, we had no reason not to hire the agency," he said.

According to Mr Sharma, the terms of awarding the contract was changed because "blacklisting is meant for some period and not permanently".

The Jammu and Kashmir Services Selection Board (JKSSB) is facing a serious credibility crisis. In the past two years, all government recruitments have come under the scanner and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) is looking into four recruitment scams in the past one year.

Mr Sharma called the protests by job aspirants "motivated", and said the candidates cannot decide which agency should conduct exams.

"There are some forces behind the protests. Some aspirants are also unprepared for exams and they want postponement," he said.

Mr Sharma said that they will be go ahead with exams for recruitment in different departments through Aptech.

"Will the candidates determine who should take their exams? I don't know which company they are supporting," said Mr Shama.

A division bench of the Jammu and Kashmir High Court today remitted back a request to a single-judge bench to decide the matter afresh.

In December, the court had given strong remarks against the Jammu and Kashmir administration for giving the exam contract to a tainted agency. The court said the decision to give the contract to Aptech Limited and the change in condition of the tender was meant to favour the private firm.

"A blacklisted agency has been allowed to compete in the tendering process and the commercial interest has outweighed the public interest," the court had said.

The Union Territory administration challenged the order before the division bench, which stayed the order within 24 hours of the judgment.
