Foreword The District Disaster Management Plan (DDMP) outlining the measure to be taken in the event of any natural or man-made disaster during the year 2011-2012 has been prepared on the past experiences. The DDMP includes the facts and figures that have been collected from various sources with a view to meet the challenges during any Natural Disaster. The plan has been prepared with the viewpoint that Disaster Management Plan in a continuous process and it needs regular updation. The plan deals with Risk Assessment and Vulnerability Analysis, identification of Disaster Prone Areas, Response Structures, Inventory of Resources, Standard operating procedures, Directory of Institutions and key individuals, etc. The plan is prepared to help the District Administration focus quickly on the essentials and crucial aspects of both preparedness and response It is hoped that the District level Officials who are in-charge of different departments will carefully go through the DDMP and remain alert to emergent situations that may arise in the course of the year. The DDMP seeks to serve as a useful handbook of operational guidelines for the Officers of the District Administration. It is expected that Field Officers working in Karbi Anglong District in the Department of Revenue, Agriculture, Rural Development, Health, Veterinary, Forest, Water Resource, PHE, PWD, Irrigation and other Department will thoroughly acquaint themselves with these guidelines. A word of caution may be mentioned, however, plans are useful and work only if they are updated and practiced through intensive mock exercises and simulations. I take this opportunity to thank all concern who has contributed in every way in preparation of the DDMP.

Hazards can be categorised in many ways. But based on their origin, worldwide they are basically grouped in two broad headings:- 1. Natural Hazard: Hazards with Meteorological, geological or even biological origin. 2. Un-Natural Hazard: Hazards with Human Caused or Technological origin. It is also important to know that Natural Phenomena are extreme Climatological, Hydrological or Geological processes that do not pose any threat to human or property. For example, a massive earthquake in an unpopulated area is a natural phenomena but not a hazard. It is when these natural phenomena interact with human population or fragile areas which cases wide spread damage. The population which are prone to these natural phenomena are called Vulnerable to hazards. A disaster is the output of a hazard such as earthquake, flood, landslide or cyclone coinciding with a vulnerable situation, which may include communities, cities or villages. Without vulnerability or hazard there is no disaster. A disaster happens when vulnerability and hazard meet. India is a vast country and is prone to many hazards. In the meantime India has experienced the disaster like tsunami in 2008, great earthquakes like Assam-1950, Gujarat- 1992, Sikkim-2011, Super cyclones of Orissa, unexpected flash flood of Mumbai ect.
