Even as Mumbai is reeling under various disastrous incidents that have taken place in the recent past, Mumbai University’s proposed course on Disaster Management remains on paper. While Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) is reminding the university to start the course, realising the need for awareness, the latter is clueless about what they plan to do regarding it.

It has been almost four years since a PG Diploma course had been proposed in disaster management, in association with BMC. But, it has yet not been finalised. A couple of months ago, BMC had again written to the university regarding initiation on the course work.
