  • It contains state wise and district wise availability of the large pool of human resources from various groups along with contact details of the nodal officers.
  • The Ministry said that dashboard is available for use by various authorities to prepare Crisis Management and Contingency Plans based on the available manpower, in coordination with nodal officers for each group.
  • This database can also be used to utilise the services of volunteers for enforcing social distancing at banks, ration shops, mandis and for providing help to elderly, divyang and orphanages.
