III (Sep. 2014), PP 67-87 www.iosrjournals.org Vulnerability and Risk Assessment of Environmental Hazards –A Case Study Of Patharpratima Block, (Sundarban Delta Region) South 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India Dr. Sandipan Chakraborty, Associate Professor, Manjira Adhikary, UGC Fellow (Senior) Presidency University, Kolkata, West Bengal, India Abstract: Like every natural phenomena, natural hazards are common occurrences which can distract, modify and influence the residential environment, economy society and culture as well. Hazard is thus regarded as the disaster situation, in which some risk of disaster exists because the human population has set itself in situation of vulnerability. The occurrence of hazard largely depends upon location of any region. Thus any region with a mere fragile physical location is more prone to hazardous situations. These regions are known as the vulnerable ones as all those are intensely used by human being. Vulnerability is both physical and social in nature. An assessment of the risks faced by any region thus gives an idea regarding vulnerability of the same. The present study is regarding the vulnerability and risk assessment of the Patharpratima block of South 24 Parganas district, West Bengal. In this study an attempt has been taken to bring forward how the block is vulnerable to certain natural threats which have been clearly explained by an assessment of the risks faced by the same. The major objective of this study is to find out the vulnerability of the study area, both environmental and social and providing an assessment of the risks faced by the block.

Name of the organization: DIGAMBARPUR ANGIKAR Date of establishment 26-07-2000 Location Vill + P.O. Digambarpur, Via Kashinagar, P.S. Dholahat, Block: Patharpratima, District: South 24 Parganas, PIN 743349, West Bengal, India Description of area The project area is located in Sundarban region at Patharpratima block of South 24 Parganas district. South 24 Parganas is the southernmost district of West Bengal where the various rivers coming from the North and the West meet the sea after creating numerous estuaries. There are several Islands like Patharpratima, Namkhana, Kakdwip, Sagar blocks thickly populated by fisher community and other vulnerable section. The socio-economic scenario of Sunderban delta is very poor. Most of the people live below the poverty line. They are landless labourers, who do not get work for more than 100 to 125 days a year. The geographical position of Sunderban villages makes it susceptible to natural calamities. Lack of resource utilization techniques, poor utilization of existing resources and primitive agricultural practices are pushing the people to remain on the lowest rung of social ladder. These children are in need of long term care because of abandonment, death of one or both parents or inability of parents to care for them. The target children are especially vulnerable as they are least likely to have family care alternatives and hence require specialized institutional care and treatment including medical, nutritional, and psychological support.
