Di st r i ct Di sast er Management Pl an, Bur dwan Di st r i ct 2013-14 MEETI NG OF DDMA & DDMC AT ANGI KAR HAL L , BURDWAN ON 2 6.. 5 2014 1 Di st r i ct Di sast er Management Pl an, Bur dwan Di st r i ct 2013-14 FOREWORD We can not escape from the fury of natural disasters and man made disaster as we can not prevent these. Burning example is ‘Aila. There are plentiful occurrences of disasters through out the year. Disaster is negatively corelated with development activities as it slows down the process of development. The Burdwan district having an area 7024 Sq. K.M. and a population of 77,23,663 as per Census 20011, is one of the largest districts in the state. The district is surrounded in North by Ajoy river, South/South-West by Damador, North-West by Barakar and East by Bagarathi. It extends from 22056` to 23053` North latitude and from 86048` to 88025` East longitude. The calamities in the district vary from eastern to western part. While eastern part faces flood / water logging every year, the western part faces industrial hazards including subsidence etc. There is a long stretch of NH - 2 and rail network traversing through this district. Hence, there always remains possibility of occurrence of road / rail accidents, resulting in human suffering. There has been a progressive change in the approach, methods and execution of relief operations during before and after natural calamities. Of late, there is a shift in paradigm in the management of flood and disaster form the earlier concept of contingent plan to comprehensive Disaster Risk Management Programme. It is more or less holistic in nature and involves all concerned departments, people’s representatives and NGOs. The Government of India in Ministry of Home Affairs has entered into an agreement with United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) with a view to manage relief operations during natural calamities/disaster with the active participants of the State Government. The thrust of this new approach is on preparedness, response and mitigation in the occurrence of natural calamities/disaster and less time gap between disaster and response. Another component of this programme is capacity building of officials of Governmental and Non-Governmental Organizations in the implementation of programme. For this the Burdwan District successfully implemented DRMP from 2004-2009. In order to reduce the impact of disasters in a convergent and coordinated manner Disaster Risk Management Programme has been implemented in the district. Disaster Management plans have been prepared from district level to gram sansad levels. Task forces have been formed at gram sansad levels to combat with the disasters and they are being trained by Civil Defense authorities. There have been a series of capacity building exercises, orientation and training at various levels so that the general people can combat and reduce the impact of disaster primarily. Govt. of India with support from U.N.D.P is now implementing the GOI-UNDP Disaster Risk Reduction Programme (DRR) from 2009 to March, 2013 in order to mitigate the risk factors of the disasters. 2 Di st r i ct Di sast er Management Pl an, Bur dwan Di st r i ct 2013-14 It is also stressed that developmental works of different departments and Panchayat Raj Institutions should converge to fulfill some of the objectives of Disaster Risk Management Programme. Keeping the aforesaid issues in mind and for implementation of Disaster Management Act 2005, there was a felt need to have a well documented District Disaster Management multi hazards and Response Plan for our district. Relevant details in connection with disaster management exercises have been incorporated in this booklet. The Disaster Management Plan will be the basis to establish policies and procedures for assuring maximum and efficient utilisation of all resources of the District with a view to minimize the loss of property, life and injury to the population. I would like to convey my sincere thanks to Sri Utpal Biswas, W.B.C.S. (Exe.), Additional District Magistrate (Disaster Management), Burdwan, Sri Kumud Ranjan Saha, District Disaster Management Officer, Burdwan and all members of staff of Disaster Management Section of this Collectorate, who made tireless effort in preparing this booklet. My sincere appreciations to them.
