Union Minister of Commerce & Industry, Piyush Goyal has said that India today is known as the first responder to the Global South for its humanitarian initiatives in times of natural disasters, adding that Indian government is there for every person in distress within the country and in the world. That is true global leadership and that is the philosophy of India.
Further pointing out that India is known to provide disaster management to the neighbouring countries in flood prevention, flood control and in mitigating other disasters, Goyal said that during Covid, India provided free vaccines to over 100 countries through the ‘Vaccine Maitri’ humanitarian initiative. The Minister said that disaster relief insurance claims is an area where work needs to be done in creating awareness and providing faster disposal of the claims in a seamless manner and nobody should need to approach the courts to get relief.
Besides, Goyal stressed that managing disaster crisis is a whole-of-the-government approach that the Prime Minister Narendra Modi has focused on and also pointed out that the Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister, PK Mishra is respected worldwide when it comes to disaster management. He also noted that a holistic approach on PM’s 10-point agenda of - integration, risk coverage, women leadership, risk mapping technology, research, media, capacity building, learning and international cooperation will help the nation build climate-resilient infrastructure in India.
