At centre of this transformation is deep conviction that ‘Every life is precious’. Our preparedness is rooted on community involvement & #COVID19 has created a new reality for us. Unlike a cyclone that comes & goes, the pandemic has brought in two new dimensions of human crisis.
One, is the inability to put a timeline as to when a crisis will move on. The second, is the way a crisis may assume new and unexpected forms. The time has come for us to create a massive knowledge infrastructure in the State that will make everyone a warrior.
