Inadequate food, health and care arise from food insecurity, unsanitary living conditions, low status of women, and poor health care (underlying causes). These are, in turn, caused by social inequity, economic challenges, poor political will and leadership to address these causes (basic causes). Interventions to address undernutrition must address these multiple causes of undernutrition and do so in an equitable manner.

  • Flood Disaster and Its Impact on the People in Kosi Region, Bihar
    © 2019 IJRAR May 2019, Volume 6, Issue 2 www.ijrar.org (E-ISSN 2348-1269, P- ISSN 2349-5138) FLOOD DISASTER AND ITS IMPACT ON THE PEOPLE IN KOSI REGION, BIHAR Dr. Sanjiv Kumar Research Fellow Univ. Deptt. of Geography, T.M.B.U., Bhagalpur Introduction The Kosi, a trans-boundary river between Nepal and India is often referred to as the “Sorrow of Bihar”. The flow of the river contains excessive silt and sand, resulting in changing the courses of the river. During the past, the river has kept on changing its courses between Purnea district in the east and Darbhanga and Madhubani districts in the west. The recent disaster was created by the breach in the eastern Kosi embankment upstream of the Indian border at Kursela in the neighbouring Nepal on the 18th of August 2008. A tragedy of unparalleled dimension unleashed was over three million people living in 995 villages spreading in seven districts of Kosi region, viz. Supaul, Araria, Madhepura, Saharsa, Purnia, Khagaria and Katihar. Objectives: The purpose of the paper is to investigate the damage caused by the devastating floods due to the turbulent river Kosi recurrently and its impact on the socio-economic life of the people inhabiting in the region which is densely populated but with poor economy. The objective refers to the sustainability of an agricultural region to the occurrence of a natural disaster. The objective is to achieve in order to create a sustainable system in environmental, social and economic terms. The other objective aims to preserve or improve characteristics of the environment such as biodiversity, soil, and water and air quality.

  • Purnea Introduction
    DISTRICT PROFILE PURNEA INTRODUCTION Purnea district is one of the thirty-eight administrative districts of Bihar state. Purnea district is a part of Purnea division. Purnea is bounded by the districts of Araria, Katihar, Bhagalpur, Kishanganj, Madhepura and Saharsa and district of West Dinajpur of West Bengal. The major rivers flowing through Purnea are Kosi, Mahananda, Suwara Kali, Koli and Panar. Purnea district extends northwards from river Ganges. Purnia has seen three districts partitioned off from its territory: Katihar in 1976, and Araria and Kishanganj in 1990. Purnea with its highest rainfall in Bihar and its moderate climate has earned the soubriquet of 'Poor's man's Darjeeling’. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Purnea has a rich history and a glorious past. It is believed that the name Purnea originates either from the Goddess Puran Devi (Kali) or from Purain meaning Lotus. The earliest inhabitants of Purnea were Anas and Pundras. In the epics, the Anas are grouped with the Bengal tribes and were the eastern most tribes known to the Aryans during the period of Atharva Samhita while the Pundras, although they had Aryan blood were regarded as degraded class of people in the Aitarya Brahmana, Mahabharata and Manu Samhita, because they neglected the performance of sacred rites. According to the legend of Mahabharata, Biratnagar which gave shelter to the five Pandava brothers during their one year incognito exile, is said to be located in Purnea. During the Mughal rule, Purnea was a military frontier province under the command of a Faujdar. The revenue from this outlying province was spent on the maintenance of troops for protecting the borders against tribes from the north and east.

  • Resilient Bihar: Case Study of Bihar Floods 2016 Abstract
    Authors: Shri Vyas Ji, IAS (Retd.) Presently Vice-Chairman, Bihar State Disaster Management Authority Monisha Dubey, Senior Editor, BSDMA RESILIENT BIHAR: CASE STUDY OF BIHAR FLOODS 2016 ABSTRACT {Disaster has become a regular global event adversely affecting lives of millions of people. The question is why so many people are affected. The reason being increased vulnerability created by human being itself. To reduce increasing disaster risks communities need to be resilient. This is why ‘disaster risk reduction’ policies are being introduced. This paper discusses roadmap for disaster risk reduction (DRR) in Bihar and its implementation at the grass root level. Taking the case of 2016 Bihar Floods, the paper tries to look into how National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) and State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) actively works towards fulfilling targets and milestones of ‘Bihar DRR Roadmap’ which was born inspired by Sendai Framework held in Japan in 2015.} Keywords: Disaster Risk Reduction, Vulnerability, Resilience, Roadmap Introduction Disaster, according to DM Act 2005, is a ‘catastrophe, mishap, calamity or grave occurrence in any area, arising from natural or human-made causes, or by accident or negligence which results in substantial loss of life or human suffering or damage to, and destruction of, property, or damage to, and degradation of, environment, and is of such a nature or magnitude as to be beyond the coping capacity of the community of the affected area’i. Disaster risks are evolving everyday with increasing rate of poverty (resulted from increased unemployment and unsystematic distribution of resources) as poor people suffer the most. Bihar is a multi-disaster prone state with almost all types of natural and man-made disasters (floods, drought, cyclonic storm, hailstorm, fire, earthquake, heat/cold waves, road/boat accidents, drowning, lighting, etc.) affecting it’s all 38 districts.
