Executive Summary Jammu & Kashmir experienced one of the worst floods in the past 60 years, during first week of September 2014, due to unprecedented and intense rains. The Jhelum River and its tributaries were in spate and caused extensive flooding in the region. The Decision Support Centre (DSC) of NRSC in collaboration with Department of Environment & Remote Sensing, J&K took necessary action on satellite data acquisition and processing and kept a close watch on the flood situation.

  • Resource Inventory, DDMA Pulwama
    Resource Inventory, DDMA Pulwama Resource Inventory of District Pulwama DISTRICTPULWAMA DDMA Pulwama Resource Inventory, DDMA Pulwama INTRODUCTION Community resource mapping is a strategy for promoting interagency collaboration by better aligning programs and services for youth and families. The major goal of community resource mapping is to ensure that all youth have access to a broad, comprehensive, and integrated system of services essential in achieving desired school and post-school outcomes. Community resource mapping can be used to improve education, workforce development, and economic development in a community by aligning available services and resources, streamlining those services and resources, and identifying areas of need. The idea of resource mapping builds on the community’s strengths by increasing the frequency, duration, intensity, and quality of services and supports in the community. It is a way to organize information and give direction to meet a common community goal. As a result of resource mapping, families and youth have more flexibility and choice in navigating the system. The alignment of resources, streamlining of resources, and identification of service gaps within the community enables educators and service providers to (a) understand the full range of services available to youth within a community, (b) more efficiently provide the specific supports needed by each youth, and (c) develop new services and supports targeted to fill existinggaps. In recent years, the Government of Jammu & Kashmir has been giving increased focus towards the Disaster Management and related aspects. It is because of the fact that J&K State is vulnerable to multiple natural hazards like floods, earthquake, landslides, fire, drought, windstorm, snow avalanches, drowning incidents etc resulting in loss of lives, damage to the property, infrastructure and public utilities.
