Jumla, July 9: Fire hydrants have been installed at six places within Chandanath Municipality in Jumla district.
Ishwara Subedi, the district coordinator of the Super Project run by the Nepal Red Cross Society, said that the fire hydrants have been installed at Ward No. 2 and 3 of the municipality.
The firefighting equipment has been managed with the goal of promoting urban preparedness and emergency response to reduce disaster risk, and to make it easier to control fires with instantaneous water supply when a fire breaks out in settlements.
The Nepal Red Cross Society is running the project by prioritizing densely populated areas of the municipality and places with high fire risk under the community-based disaster risk reduction programme, it is stated. #nepal #rss
