Current Context: Civil Servants including IAS and IPS officers have created a platform called CARUNA (Civil Services Association Reach to Support National Disasters) to guide the government in tackling major health issues of COVID-19.
- Civil Officers from various backgrounds including Indian Administrative Service (IAS), Indian Police Service (IPS), Indian Foreign Service (IFS), Indian Revenue Service (IRS), state services and many more are part of this platform.
- With the help of this platform, civil servants will assist, support and supplement GOI to tackle COVID-19 using their network, training provided to them to handle health issues, skills, resources etc.
- Since civil servants are spread out across the country, this network can be used to create a database of information on migration, essential supplies and medical equipment like masks, ventilators, PPE etc.
