1-0-8 Emergency Response Service

Friends,

 

Before you start reading through this email ensure that you have some 5 to 10 minutes time to read and understand about this service. 

No one would ever know when it will be a life risking emergency for any one amongst us and in those situations this will sure come handy.  As what I have heard from two other friends of mine who have made use of this service, this is really excellent and is sure a recommended service in case of an emergency. 

 

 

Thanks

Sreenath
