  • Near-Death Experiences in South India: a Systematic Survey in Channapatna
    Article NIMHANS Journal Near-Death Experiences in South India: A Systematic Survey in Channapatna Volume: 10 Issue: 02 July 1992 Page: 111-118 Satwant Pasricha, - Department of Clinical Psychology, National Institute of Mental Health & Neuro Sciences, Bangalore 560 029, India Abstract The study of unusual experiences of persons who survive death (NDE) has attracted the attention of scientists over the past two decades. However, very few reports concerning the prevalence of NDEs are available. So far, only two reports of surveys of such experiences have been published; one from the United States of America and the other from India. In the present article, the author reports the findings of another survey of NDEs and conducted in a region of southern India. A population of 17192 persons was surveyed and 2439 respondents were interviewed for identification of NDE cases. Twenty-six persons were reported to have died and revived, 16 (62%) of these having had NDEs. Thus the prevalence rate of NDEs, was found to be approximately one in thousand persons. Except for one subject all the subjects had NDEs at home. The characteristics of the NDE cases identified during the survey are presented. Similarities and differences in features between subjects of the cases reported from India and the USA are discussed and possible interpretations offered. Key words - NDEs, Survey Some persons after recovering from a close encounter with death from illness or other life-threatening situations, report unusual affective, cognitive and seemingly transcendental experiences. These have been frequently referred to as "near-death experiences (NDEs)". In the past two decades a number of reports on NDEs have been published from the West [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6] as well as from India [7], [8], [9], [10].

  • District Disaster Management Plan 2019-20 Ramanagara District, Ramanagara
    GOVERNMENT OF KARNATAKA DISTRICT DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN 2019-20 RAMANAGARA DISTRICT, RAMANAGARA - 1 - CHAPTER-1 DDMP INTRODUCTION 1.0 Introduction Disaster management has been an evolving discipline particularly in India over last one decade. With increasing frequency and intensity of disasters and large number of people coming in their way, the subject needed a more systematic attention and a planned approach. Disaster management Act, 2005 provides mandate for development of comprehensive disaster management plan at national, state and district level. In particular, there is a need to have a comprehensive plan at district level, which is the cutting edge level for implementation of all policy guidelines and strategies. There has also been a significant change in understanding of disaster management from Global to grassroots levels in last few years. Hyogo Framework for Action and later Disaster Management Act, 2005, brought a paradigm shift in disaster management from a reactive relief based approach to a more proactive disaster risk reduction approach.
