Massive turnout for HYDRAA recruitment prompts crowd control measures at Saroornagar
On Saturday, HYDRAA's recruitment drive for 100 Disaster Response Force (DRF) assistant and 50 driver positions at Saroornagar Stadium saw a massive turnout of over 1,600 aspirants. Initial crowd control measures were required as officials struggled to manage the large gathering, with LB Nagar police deploying bandobast to prevent any stampede-like situation.
Repeated announcements over loudspeakers reassured aspirants that all applications would be accepted, allowing the selection process to continue without disruption. HYDRAA had announced the recruitment process would take place at Saroornagar Stadium on August 8 and 9, but the initial confusion led to some processing challenges for officials. However, cooperation from aspirants ensured the recruitment process proceeded smoothly.
