Friday would mark the third consecutive day of mock security drills at strategic facilities in Tamil Nadu, and across India, amid the rapidly escalating war-like situation between India and Pakistan following Indian armed forces' Operation Sindoor in response to the Pahalgam terror attack of April 22.
On Thursday, drills were conducted at Kamarajar Port and Chennai Petroleum Corporation, near Chennai. The mock drill simulated events to check the preparedness of the Civil Defence System to handle an air raid and intrusion in the seafront in a war-like emergency. During the Civil defence mock exercise, safe evacuation and first aid were rehearsed.
