Answer 1

Answer:

B. ഒന്ന് മാത്രം

While mock exercises do reinforce theoretical knowledge, their primary purpose is practical application and validation of plans. They are not merely academic but highly experiential. The core benefits include assessing resource needs, evaluating capabilities, and fostering inter-agency coordination, all of which contribute to an effective and efficient disaster response. They allow for the identification of logistical gaps and operational challenges before a real crisis occurs.
