14-MAR-19SRIVASTAVAGave me a paper and asked me to draw ETA, While drawing he asked as per which regulation, I said SOLAS chapter and regulation I don’t remember, He gave me SOLAS and asked me to find out, it was in chapter 2. He asked me why is it chapter 2 and not 5. Requirement for ETA deployment, I answered. He was not satisfied. He wants exactly what is quoted in SOLAS. Again asked me to read from SOLAS.F1
