Mock fire drill held at Nagpur airport

Nagpur: Airport Authority of India (AAI) conducted a mock fire drill at Nagpur airport on Monday morning. While such drills are conducted every one or two months, AAI bosses decided to do it today as fire at Mantralaya has heightened concerns about fire safety of important buildings.
AAI has a fire department of its own and help from outside is only sought when internal equipment and staff are inadequate. AAI has two fire tenders and two ambulances at the city airport.
Nagpur airport's fire manager Pradip Kumar Kasppy said that as per norms of Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) the fire tenders should reach the spot in 90 seconds.
