3. Introduction
Police organization has to see itself as a major
player in disaster management. It will
continue to have the first responder role
given its proximity to the incident site and
relationship with the people. Therefore it has
to bring about change in its approach. It has to
adopt disaster management function as a one
of its primary functions. State & district level
authorities cannot afford to wait for response
specialized forces such as NDRF all the time.
4. Introduction
The local police must be trained, equipped and supported with legislation
and Logistic so that they find themselves capable to support the victim in disaster
situation. Subsequently they can play supporting role to the specialist forces if and
when they come in bigger emergency cases. On many occasions Special Forces
are not required and the local police may retain the primary role to help the needy.
The outside forces are also handicapped in operating in unknown area, among
unknown people and here is the key to critical role of police. Moreover, on many
occasions, it might not be advisable or feasible to obtain/deploy armed forces and NDRF.
Hence state police must be prepared as response force.
5. The Police are among the first responders
in any crisis because -
1. Local police arrive first
2. Familiar with local terrain
3. Wider reach, every village covered
4. Possess well developed communication system
5. Better knowledge of local people feelings and mind-sets
6. People recognise police as first responder uniformed, disciplined
6. The Police are among the first responders
in any crisis because -
While functions of local police are well defined for internal emergency,
same is not true for natural disasters. But wherever earthquake or flood
occurs, the police get involved from beginning. Hence if their role is
designed and documented in police manuals, disaster management acts
and policies, it will, to that extent facilitate immediate effective response, at
least in the first few hours which are most crucial. Hence the need to frame
that can help the police forces in being prepared and respond
appropriated whenever any disaster happens.
7. Role of Police before
Disaster-Prevention and Preparedness
Superintendent of Police of a district is member of District Disaster
Management Authority (DDMA) and in this capacity he could play
important role in prevention and preparedness phase.
Emergency Traffic Plan:- Being familiar with the local terrain, Police should
prepare emergency traffic plan including detail mapping with focus on
strategic points, which may used at the time of incident for safe transporting of
personnel, resources and relief goods to and from the affected area.
8. Role of Police before
Disaster-Prevention and Preparedness
Detail communication Plan:- Police has a
robust and effective Communication system
that is also for non police functions. It can
also be used to propagate information and
warning of threatening disaster. Thus
police can develop communication
protocols for responding during disasters e.g.
designate separate channels for rescue, relief
for example. Person who are present at village
level could play important role to collect
sensitive information and disseminate
emergency warning and other information.
9. Role of Police before
Disaster-Prevention and Preparedness
Identification of Building:- Police
personnel travel in their area frequently.
They can be of great help in identifying
buildings and campus which are easy to
access and could be used as relief
centers/relief camps and go-down for
storage of food grains and other rescue and
relief materials.
10. Role of Police before
Disaster-Prevention and Preparedness
Security Plan:- At the time of any
serious incident it becomes inevitable to
provide security to victims, responders
and to relief materials at storage point
and during transit. Resources deployed
too may require security.
11. Role of Police before
Disaster-Prevention and Preparedness
Resource Mapping:- It is very important to
locate essential resources at very beginning of
search and rescue works. It has been experienced
during the Kosi flood 2008 that in rescue and
relief works even small and tiny elements
become very important. So local police could
identify, locate and document general essential
elements useful for different kind of disasters.
These resources may have to be operated under
the guidance and protection of police.
12. Role of Police before
Disaster-Prevention and Preparedness
Training:- Men in uniform (Police) are most
visible and reliable government agency
nearest to the people in difficult times.
Police should conduct mock exercises with
various stakeholders and should test and
update their different plans.
13. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
The primary role of police is evident during the management of the actual disaster
situation. It includes: -
1. Search and Rescue(SAR):- The primary function during a disaster. Policemen must be
trained and equipped to begin rescue at the earliest to take advantage and they would be
able to provide immediate relief to the victim till specialized forces arrive. During such
activity, police has to provide protection to boats that are put in operation during floods.
resources eg. Deployment of policeman on the boat plying in floods helps prevent
overcrowding of boats and prevent capsizing.
14. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
2. Deployment of resources:- Police can help in deployment of resources, provide
safety and security to the resources and the persons manning them
Restoration of communication system with rescue teams:- Telephonic
communication breaks down since the telephone towers/offices get
destroyed with the result that landline and mobile phones stop working. Wireless
communication might be the only means left. During floods or any other disaster most
of the rescue teams operate in unknown territories under adverse conditions where
landmarks are either washed away or destroyed. Make available police
communication resources for other DM task. Relief distribution, medical teams.
Standby for emergency communication networks.
15. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
3. Prevention of commission of cognizable offences including all offences against
property, human body and public tranquility:- During disaster situation people
abandon their houses with or without belongings. The safety and security of such houses
and belonging is at risk. During such time people are without jobs hence incidence of
crime generally increases. It also provides opportunities for the lumpen element such as
robbers and thieves to commit cognizable offences i.e. looting etc., against property.
Similarly the vulnerable section of society particularly women and children
susceptible to crimes against human body. Police can provide safety to such persons by
active patrolling during disasters and by arresting the suspects beforehand.
Investigation of cases.
16. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
4. Security during Relief distributions/ Relief management:- Relief
distribution is an important aspect of disaster management.
a. The designated relief distribution center is generally located in the interiors.
Therefore the security of personnel engaged in distribution and the material to be
distributed (Cash and Kind) requires special attention.
b. Likewise the security of grains and other relief material eg food packets being
transported from different places to distribution centers is also important. Dedicated
escorts are needed from the FCI godowns, railway stations to temporary storage/
distribution centers. The security of the food godowns, Railways stations where relief
materials are received also require security.
17. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
c. Relief material sent by NGOs etc. is also important and Police can play significant role
in this regard.
d. During the actual distribution of relief large numbers of people gather at the relief
center. The crowd management becomes important. The regulation of the process
of distribution of relief can help in maintaining law and order.
5. Isolate disaster sites and control site access for safety of victims, general public
and efficiency of incident operation
18. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
Camp management:- Security of camp inmates, officials and volunteers engaged in
running of camps including health workers is core function. During Kosi disaster over
400 relief camps had people from many villages with different religious, political
and caste backgrounds and thus had potential for friction. This requires deployment for
law & order maintenance.
Government and many non government employees/volunteers are engaged in running of
kitchens, medical centers, sanitation units etc. They require protection all the time.
19. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
6. Emergency transportation and Traffic Regulation: Police has to facilitate the
movement of rescue, medical, fire an During Kosi disaster Highways roads had to be
kept free for movement of rescue teams and relief material. Check posts were established
for ensuring safety of relief material. Road patrol was arranged for safe passage of army
convoys, boats and other resources sent from outside and vehicles for army was
arranged. other essential services.
Control traffic during and after the incident and maintain access and egress routes.
Make available police resources to transport rescue and relief personnel and victims.
Assist in managing huge logistical problems in handling relief supplies

21. Role of police during Disaster-

7. Coordination with various agencies:- During disasters various agencies such as NDRF,
SDRF, Paramilitary forces such as BSF, CRPF, CISF etc, Army, IAF, Cost Guard,
medical teams from outside the state arrive at the disaster sites. These external agencies
are not informed about the physical terrain, Route Charts etc. The police can
coordinate the activities of these agencies. The coordination among police and other
agencies needs to be standardized in clear procedures.
Police can function as link with external agencies since most are uniformed.
NDRF today is the most visible trained emergency response force made up of personnel
of CRP, BSF and CISF. Rescue teams from Army, Coast Guard, IAF and other states also
policemen based.
22. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
The coordination among police and other agencies needs to be standardized
in clear procedures. Protocols are needed for deploying resources in case of a
disaster in a manner that is well-coordinated between local, state, and central
emergency agencies including armed forces.
Importantly police organizations do not stand alone in doing what is necessary to
deal with major disasters. Instead, police agencies must be integrated and be able to
cooperate with other police and emergency agencies.
23. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
8. Casualty information/ Disposal of dead - The identification of people involved in
accidents/emergencies is a Police responsibility. All enquiries could be handled by
police station staff.
Tracing of missing persons and notification to their next of kin could be another area of
work allotted to police.
Disposal of dead bodies and documentation of dead and the missing for the benefit
of next of kin to claim the compensation and ex-gratia.
24. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
9. Media management:- During any disaster situation information flow through the
audio-visual as well as print media. The reports from need to be verified as soon as
possible for quick response. The police can not only verify the facts of the information
but also play an important role in briefing the media regarding the actual situation. This
can help in checking the spread of rumors. In certain countries, Police officers
play role of the Police Press Officer at the scene of any major emergency to co-
ordinate the response to all media enquiries.
25. Role of police during Disaster-
Emergency Response phase
10. VIP Security:- VIPs visit the
affected area and relief camps
frequently. Many a times, politically
opposed/ dissatisfied resort to protests
thereby posing threat to VIP and law
and order. This must be handled by
police.
26. Role of police After Disaster
In long term operation of evacuation shelters the issues over the shelters would change
and if they are not addressed soon they would create law and order problem.
Therefore it is important to find the causes of the problems as soon as possible, access
the situation and reviews the previous ways.
Accommodation of persons with special meds in evacuation shelters such as small
children, pregnant women and mothers with nursing infants etc. requires utmost care. In
a limited shelter space it is very important to provide special rooms for them. Police can
player very important role in this respect
27. Role of police After Disaster
At the time of relief distribution and primary accommodation of victims support
for the disabled and issues related to hygiene, infectious disease should be looked
after carefully other wise it create serious problems to restoration face.
Police can play an important role in selection of beneficiaries of houses and other assets
to the victims to avoid complications and litigation.
Restoration of Critical infrastructure:- Disaster usually affects the critical infrastructure
such as road, telecommunication, health centers, school, electricity supply etc.
Police can provide protection to the agencies which are involved in restoration of such
infrastructure because people who are rendered jobless after disaster may hinder the
process.
28. Role of police After Disaster
Safe exit of the personnel involved in disaster management:- After the disasters
due to fatigue laxity might seep in to the system. Although the overall law and
order situation is monitored and maintained by the police, it becomes very important
after the disaster for the safe exit of the personnel from outside agencies involved in
management of the disaster i.e People from NGOs, INGOs, medical teams etc.
Feedback/assessment:- Since the police is the key factor in managing the disaster,
their feedback/ assessment is very important in updating the plans for the future.
Contingency planning:- The police familiar with the local terrain and the resources
available in the locality. They can plan the actions taken at the time of the disaster before
hand.
29. Challenges and Measures
1:-. Possible threats to the police for his area and prevention of disaster
Solution:- It must be started from the beginning. It is the first duty to obey the law, many
times the concerned departments do not do their work properly and the event of disaster
happens. At all costs its mandatory to follow and apply norms and standard for prevention
Given by National Disaster Management Authority. Eg. Building Code.
30. Challenges and Measures
2:- lacks a clear idea about its specific hazards and vulnerability, deflating the
government's ability to undertake targeted measures for their prevention or
mitigation.
Solution:- The police should be aware of important hazard areas of their area and the
level of probable danger from them and adequate information of the relevant assistant
agency should be required. Experts can consult and monitor.
31. Challenges and Measures
3:- lack of proper technical assistance and other back-up measures
Solution:- Seek Support from NDRF, SDRF, Homeguards, Civil Defense, NGO,
Academic Institutions for Training and Awareness about Technical Equipment’s and
Conduct Mock Drill According Place, Population and Respective Hazards.
32. Challenges and Measures
4:-. Absence of proper guidelines for preparation of disaster management
plans at various levels and workable disaster management plans poses a
major challenge.
Solution:- The time for some disasters is almost certain, before the police should take
the action plan details and details from the concerned department. And if it is not on time,
then the loss is possible and the police will also be held responsible. Police should also
include disaster management topics & mock drills in their awareness campaigns.
