    Now with the increasing 'Covid-19' pandemic MRPL should have considered the hospital bed, ventilators, medical supply instead of disaster management equipment.

    I appreciate the good work, but these equipment seems more vintage and heavy to carry for the staff. The portable flood light is still old days bulb rather than high intensity LED tactical light. The stretcher weight more than the patient. None of the flotation devices are equipped with in built lights.

    I doubt about MRPL disaster management competency.
