World Civil Defense Day is celebrated every year on March 1 to bring the attention of the world public to the importance of civil protection and to pay tribute to the efforts, sacrifices, and accomplishments of all the services responsible for fighting against disasters. The International Civil Defence Organization (ICDO) decided to celebrate this day in 1990. #worldcivildefenseday #civildefenseday #civildefense #emergencypreparedness #disasterresponse #civilprotection #icdo #march1 #internationalday #todayinhistory #history #historicalevents #gkupdates #currentaffairs #upsc2025 #competitiveexams #generalknowledge #upscinsights #gkforexams #upsc2025
