Editor's Notes
- Minister of Home Affairs - Sushil Kumar Shinde
- Hazard • Any phenomenon that has the potential to cause disruption or damage to people and their environment Vulnerability • The conditions determined by physical, social, economic and environmental factors or processes, which increase the susceptibility of a community to the impact of hazards Vulnerable Populations Emergencies, especially those that occur in Nature, only become catastrophic events when they combine with vulnerability factors such as human settlements and population density. An earthquake occurring in a deserted area would be considered a natural hazard; but if it occurred in a mega city it would be recognized as a major disaster. Risk • The probability of harmful consequences, or expected losses (deaths, injuries, property, livelihood, economic activity disrupted or environment damaged) resulting from interactions between natural or human-induced hazards and vulnerabilities

Drought, pest- attacks and hailstorm will be dealt with by the Ministry of Agriculture & Cooperation.

- The new approach proceeds from the conviction that development cannot be sustainable unless disaster mitigation is built into the development process.. The new policy also emanates from the belief that investments in mitigation are much more cost effective than expenditure on relief and rehabilitation.
- The Contingency Action Plan (CAP) Identifies initiatives to be taken by various Central Ministries and Public Dept. in the wake of natural calamities
- encompasses all measures taken to reduce both the effect of hazards itself and the vulnerable conditions in order to reduce the losses in a future disaster

- Farakka barrage, Kosi embankment dam-barrier controlling flow of water: a barrier of concrete or earth that is built across a river or stream to obstruct or control the flow of water, especially in order to create a reservoir dike-embankment to prevent floods: an embankment built along the shore of a sea or lake or beside a river to hold back the water and prevent flooding Barrage; which consists of a line of large gates that can be opened or closed to control the amount of water passing the dam key difference between a barrage and a dam is that a dam is built for storing water in a reservoir, which raises the level of water significantly. A barrage is built for diverting water, farakka barrage along ganges river in WB
- BIS standards not followed allover, National Core Group for Earthquake Mitigation plan of action for mitigating the impact of earthquakes providing advice and guidance to the States on various aspects of earthquake mitigation; developing/organizing the preparation of handbooks/pamphlets/type designs for earthquake resistant construction; working out systems for assisting the States in the seismically vulnerable zones to adopt/integrate appropriate Bureau of Indian Standards codes in their building byelaws; evolving systems for training of municipal engineers as also practicing architects and engineers in the private sector in the salient features of Bureau of Indian Standards codes and the amended byelaws; evolving a system of certification of architects/engineers for testing their knowledge of earthquake resistant construction; evolving systems for training of masons and carry out intensive awareness generation campaigns.
- An earthquake mitigation project has been finalized for reducing the vulnerability to earthquakes. The programme includes detailed evaluation andretrofitting of lifeline buildings such as hospitals, schools, water and powersupply units, telecommunication buildings, airports/airport control towers,railway stations, bus stands and important administrative buildings. Theprogramme also includes training of more than one hundred thousand masonsfor earthquake resistant constructions. Besides, assistance will be providedunder this project to the State Governments to put in place appropriate techno legal regime

Some locations of indian ocean remained intact when tsunami struck in 2004..bcoz the existing cocunut palms and mangroves treees
- Mangrove swamps protect coastal areas from erosion, storm surge (especially during hurricanes), and tsunamis.[8][9] The mangroves' massive root systems are efficient at dissipating wave energy.[10] ] Sand Dunes are natural structures protecting the coast from high waves and saltwater intrusions (Corre 1991). dune is a hill of sand built either by wind or water flow, Overall, every sand dune is created by the interaction of the wind with soil in the form of grains of sand
- The task of drought forecasting is entrusted to the India Meteorological Department (IMD) which, over the years, has fine-tuned a methodology for forecasting the intensity of the southwest monsoon on a regional
- An irrigation canal winds its way through rice fields near Bangalore. Approximately 55 percent of India’s farmland is not irrigated and depends on the monsoon rains. Drip irrigation, also known as trickle irrigation or micro irrigation or localized irrigation, is an irrigation method that saves water and fertilizer by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either onto the soil surface or directly onto the root zone, through a network of valves, pipes, tubing, and emitters. It is done through narrow tubes that deliver water directly to the base of the plant.
