Leaning towards keep. It should be a fair call to presume notability for a governmental agency dedicated to rescue operations covering over 30 million people. Furthermore there is news coverage of their activity referenced in the article, and a quick check on google news has further verification with examples such as [1], [2], [3], and Due to the scale of the disaster, NDRF (National Disaster Response Force) and SDRF (State Disaster Response Force) teams had to evacuate 98,509 persons marooned by floods,” said Sarma.. Note - I expect WP:NONPROFIT is the appropriate guideline - I would say this article meets the spirit of WP:NONPROFIT#1 (30 million is bigger than many nations) and I contend that WP:NONPROFIT#2 is met by non-passing mentions in many news sources - including the sigcov posted by Erric679 above.
