New Delhi, Sep 18 : The Second Asian Ministerial Conference on Disaster Management would be held here on November 7 and 8, Home Minister Shivraj Patil said today.

In a high level meeting, Mr Patil reviewed the preparations for the meet in which many Asian countries including China, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Malaysia would participate.

The countries of the region would take up serious measures to prevent disasters and provide timely relief and rehabilitation to the victims.
