Siliguri gears up for nation-wide mock drill
May 07, 2025
|The Statesman Siliguri
Siliguri and other North Bengal districts will participate in a civil defence mock drill as part of a nationwide exercise across 244 border districts, aiming to test emergency preparedness
Curiosity is running high among residents of Siliguri, particularly the youth, as they prepare to witness a nationwide "mock drill" scheduled for Wednesday.
The drill, designed to assess the operational efficacy and coordination of various civil defence measures, aims to strengthen preparedness for emergencies.
As per instructions from the ministry of home affairs, the exercise will be conducted across 244 vulnerable districts throughout the country, including several in North Bengal.
In the wake of the recent terror attack at Pahalgam, public discourse has taken a sharp turn. Speculations over a possible India-Pakistan conflict have surfaced, especially after the Indian government took a series of stern steps against Pakistan.
Against this backdrop, people in Siliguri are not only debating national security but also eagerly anticipating the mock drill.
