The Cabinet Sub-Committee on Disaster Management convened yesterday to assess the current situation and formulate a preparedness strategy for the upcoming summer.
As part of these efforts, the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Department (RDPR), Government of Karnataka (@rdprgok) is actively developing a contingency plan to tackle a potential dry spell. To enhance emergency response and planning, district Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) have been directed to submit reports on local legacy issues. These reports will help in identifying region-specific challenges and ensuring a more effective implementation of relief measures.
Authorities are prioritizing proactive measures to mitigate the impact of extreme weather conditions, with a focus on water conservation, drought relief, and infrastructure readiness.
