The awareness-cum-mock drill was conducted by the Assam State Fire & Emergency Service department, Chaygaon. The day-long programme was presided over by the Deputy Chief Executive Member of RHAC, Ramakanta Rabha.

Rabha said that the council decided that due to the increasing number of LPG users, mostly in the village areas, people who use LPG cylinders in their houses and commercially should have knowledge about LPG cylinder and how to use it. “So, we took support from the Indian Oil Corporation and State Fire and emergency service department to alert the villagers under the RHAC area,” added Rabha. Hundreds of women and men took part in the awareness camp and the mock drill that was conducted by Chaygaon Fire and Emergency Service Officer Pabitra Das and his team.
