Disaster management
It is unfortunate that north Chennai, especially Ennore, has experienced a series of incidents — flooding, an oil slick, an ammonia gas leak in a fertilizer plant, and an explosion in an oil major’s facility.
Relief and rehabilitation exercises should be set in motion on a war footing in the area. What is striking is a lack of rescue and relief mechanisms in place in the zone (“NGT directs TNPCB to submit report on Ennore gas leak”, December 28).
