Future name for Home Ministry?
Almost
60% of India is under tectonically active earthquake prone zones; about 8% is prone to landslides; over 40 million hectares is flood prone; while 68% of the area is susceptible to drought. In the 1990s, while the annual loss of life was 4,344 (a relatively low number compared to, say, the 85,000 and above who die in road accidents every year in India), the bigger issue is the 30 million people who are directly affected by disasters each year. Even the loss to physical infrastructure has been astronomical. Despite several previous hazards, it took the catastrophic super cyclone of Orissa in 1999 and the Bhuj earthquake to underscore the need for a multi dimensional strategy involving an institutionalised social, financial and scientific processes that incorporates risk reduction at the planning stage itself. But disaster management has remained as chaotic as ever.
