“Our aim is for the Delhi Fire Services to become not only the most advanced in the country but among the best in the world,” she said.
Reiterating the government’s commitment to making the Delhi Fire Services (DFS) ‘one of the best in the world’, Chief Minister Rekha Gupta Thursday assessed the two QRVs (Quick Response Vehicles), which are specialised compact fire-fighting vehicles designed to maneuver with ease in congested areas.
A demonstration of the QRVs was held at the Delhi Secretariat. Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister announced a Rs 504-crore budget for the DFS, with Rs 110 crore reserved for procuring advanced fire-fighting equipment. Some of them would be automated water tower vehicles, a 32-metre turntable ladder, mini fire-fighting robots, and QRVs.
