On the Raising Day of the National Disaster Response Force (19 January 2026)
We extend our deepest appreciation to the men and women whose professionalism and resolve stand tall in moments of crisis. Always at the forefront when a calamity strikes, NDRF personnel work tirelessly to protect lives, provide relief and restore hope under the most challenging circumstances. Their skills and sense of duty exemplify the highest standards of service. Over the years, the NDRF has emerged as a benchmark in disaster preparedness and response, earning much respect internationally.

‘During President’s Colour’ Award Ceremony (14 May 2026)
Whether it is a natural disaster or any catastrophic accident, just a glimpse of NDRF instills a sense of security and trust in the hearts of the countrymen. This force has so far saved the lives of more than 1.5 lakh people and evacuated over 9 lakh people to safe locations. The courage and dedication of these brave personnel will forever remain an inspiration for all.
