Foreword

The formulation of guidelines on various disasters & cross cutting issues is an important part of the mandate given to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) on the basis of which District Disaster Management Plan (Unakoti) has been prepared in connection with various plans formulated by Sub-Divisions, Blocks, Line Departments, Nagar Panchayats and Gram Panchayats at their own levels. District Disaster Management Plan (Unakoti) has the first initiative towards formulating a systematic comprehensive and holistic approach to all natural and man made disasters which are further compounded by increasing vulnerabilities. These include the ever growing population, the vast disparities in income, rapid urbanization, development with high risk zones, environmental degradation, climate change etc. The District Plan for Disaster Management as mandated by the District Management Act. 2005, has been built in regions and hazard specific management tools in the context of regional and multi-hazard vulnerabilities. The DDMA will concentrate on prevention, mitigation and also formulate appropriate measures for effective and synergized District Disaster Response & Relief. It will co-ordinate the enforcement and implementation of policies and various plans from GP to District Level.

12 Introduction

Due to unique geo-climatic conditions prevailing in the Indian land mass and its geophysical nature, India has been witnessing different types of devastating natural disasters like floods, cyclones, earthquakes, landslides, droughts, tsunami etc at regular intervals, causing huge loss of life, property and damage to the environment and hence, considered as one of the most disaster prone country in the world. During the last four to five decades, vulnerability to disasters, both natural as well as man-made, have been increasing due to rising population, haphazard urbanization, structural development in high risk zones, environmental degradation, climate change etc. Tragically, disasters continue to affect mostly the poorest and least developed. While countries with a low human development index reported the fewest natural disasters during the last decade (compared to countries with a high human development index), the number of deaths for each disaster is by far the highest in these countries. An average of 555 people died per disaster in countries with a low human development index, compared to 133, where there is a medium human development index, and 18 in countries with a high human development index (like US, Japan, Europe and so on). Since its earliest days, communication has played an important role in Disaster Management (DM), in providing information to all the stakeholders, particularly in rescue and emergency relief operations to the disaster affected victims. Perhaps, no more graphic example can be found than in the events surrounding the sinking of the “Titanic” on April 14th, 1912, when Radio communication technology was instrumental in soliciting aid from the nearby vessels “California” and “Carpathia” which were able to proceed to the rescue of the people. Advances in Information a n d Communication Technology (ICT) have made it possible to not only forecast some of the disasters but also to have made available means, for quick and effective rescue and relief operation, thereby minimizing the deadly impacts of some of the worst disasters. Tripura has been witnessing different types of devastating disaster like earthquakes, floods, cyclones, dry spell & man made disaster. In the decade of 1980 extremist violence had collapsed the development of our state and huge numbers of people had lost their life & property. Now the situation is under control and the people are living safely in remote areas also. Socio economic development is increasing day by day. Health, Sanitation, Medical care, Drinking Water, Education is going to reach every villages of Tripura. Unakoti District will come into effect having a geographical area of 686.97 Sq. Km. and is divided into 2 (Two) Sub-Divisions namely Kailashahar & Kumarghat. The Whole Unakoti District comprises of 2 (two) Revenue Circles, 12(twelve) nos. of TK and 78 Revenue villages and population of 2, 77,335 (as per provisional census 2011). For the purpose of development activities in rural areas there are 4 (Four) Rural Development Blocks namely Gournagar, Chandipur, Kumarghat & Pecharthal are 13 available in Unakoti District. Besides there are 2 (two) Municipal council namely Kailashahar & Kumarghat cater the development activities and civic provision in urban areas of the Unakoti District. The Hill range Unakoti is famous for locating less than 1 (one) crore engraved picture of Gods and Goddess on the stone, which is a famous tourist spot recognized by ASI. The main river Manu comes from the Longtharai Valley Sub-Division and flows towards North and goes to Bangladesh through the Kailashahar Sub-Division. The river Deo that subsequently meets the Manu river at Kumarghat area is also to be noted. It is fact that before 30 / 40 years back the river Deo & Manu used to play vital role for transportation of different goods by locally made boats from one place to the other business centers. Hot and humid summer with sufficient rainfall between Jun and October and dry winter characterize the climate of Unakoti District. Rainfall usually high in the District compared to other District in the State. Temperature is generally moderate and mild variations are noticed in various places. The Unakoti District is situated in intense seismic region, which is placed in the category of Zone-‘V’.

28 6.6.4 Livestock Management during Disasters:

The following preparations are essential formanagement of animals during disasters: i) Development of flood, cyclone and other natural calamity warning systems. In Principle, an EWS would make it possible to avoid many adverse economic and human costs that arise due to the destruction of livestock resources every year. Reliable forecasting would also allow state governments to undertake more efficient relief interventions. Other tools that mayprovide early warning signals include field monitoring and remote sensing systems. Ideally, field monitoring should provide monthly flows of information on the availability of water and the general state of crop and livestock production. Useful production parameters include marketing trends, particularly the balance of trade between livestock and grain foods, and anthropomorphic measures such as the mean arm circumference of children under five. Remote sensing, which relies on imagery satellites, is a valuable tool when used in conjunction with field monitoring. These tools will be integrated to develop an effective EWS. ii) Establishment of fodder banks at the village level for storage of fodder in the form of bales and blocks for feeding animals during drought and other natural calamities is an integral part of disaster mitigation. The fodder bank must be established at a secure highland that may not be easily affected by a natural calamity. A few fodder banks will be developed as closed facilities to prevent them from getting contaminated. iii) Supply of feed ingredients at nominal cost from the Food Corporation of India: Most grain rations for cattle and sheep provide enough protein to maintain a satisfactory 10–12% level. But when we feed livestock in emergency situations—mostly low-protein materials such as ground ear corn, grain straws or grass straws—a protein supplement is needed. Adequate reserves as per the availability of resources will be developed. iv) Conservation of monsoon grasses in the form of hay and silage during the flush season greatly help in supplementing shortage of fodder during emergencies such as drought or flood. The objective is to preserve forage resources for the dry season (hot regions) or for winter (temperate regions) in order to ensure continuous, regular feed for livestock. It is an important disaster mitigation strategy. v) Development of existing degraded grazing lands by perennial grasses and legumes. As a majority of the population in droughtprone areas depends on land-based activities like crop farming and animal husbandry, the core task for development will be to promote rational utilisation of land for supplementing fodder requirements during emergencies. vi) Provision of free movement of animals for grazing from affected states to the unaffected reduces pressure on pastures and also facilitates early rehabilitation of the affected livestock. In emergency situations, the resence of livestock can exacerbate conflict when refugees with animals compete for reduced forage and

29 water resources. To prevent this, what is technically known as emergency destocking programme, will be instituted. This programme provides for the intentional removal of animals from a region before they die. viii) Treatment and vaccination of animals against contagious diseases in flood affected areas. Routine prophylactic vaccination of livestock in flood- prone area significantly reduces the severity of the post-disaster outbreak of any endemic diseases. Since animals affected by floods are prone to pick up infectious diseases, vaccination and veterinary camps will be set up to treat and immunise livestock against various diseases. The creation of a community based animal health care delivery system may significantly reduce livestock deaths in a region. Vaccination programmes and primary animal health care will prevent some of the drastic losses associated with the onset of rains. ix) Provision of compensation on account of distressed sale of animals and economic losses to farmers due to death or injury of livestock. Compensation for animals and other property affected by an emergency due to an animal disease outbreak is an integral part of the strategy for eradicating or controlling disease. A legislation that provides the power to destroy livestock and property, and ultimately determines the process by which compensation is to be paid, will be enacted and implemented by the respective legislative bodies.

6.6.5 Disposal of Dead Animals during Disasters:-

Carcasses can be a hazard to the environment and other animals and require special handling. To minimise soil or water contamination and the risk of spreading diseases, guidelines for proper carcass disposal must be followed. Disposal options include calling a licensed collector to dead stock or burial in an approved animal disposal pit. Alternatives include incineration and burial. Burial avoids air contamination associated with burning carcasses and is economical. Since the heat in the pile eliminates most pathogens, burial can also improve the biosecurity of farming operations. A plan for the disposal of dead livestock should address selection of the most appropriate site in each village or cluster of villages for burial or burning, disinfection process, provision of costs for burial or burning, material and equipment required for burial and burning, etc. A prototype guideline for isposal of livestock is provided for reference (Annexure-H).

6.6.6 Strategy for Emergency Management. i) There will be efforts to prevent an emergency, reduce the likelihood of its occurrence or reduce the damaging effects of unavoidable hazards long before an emergency occurs. Flood and fire insurance policies for farms are important mitigation activities. ii) It is pertinent to develop plans regarding what to do, where to go, or who to call for help before an event occurs—actions that will improve chances of successfully dealing with an emergency. These include preparedness measures such as posting emergency telephone numbers, holding disaster drills and installing warning systems. iii) Efforts need to be made to respond safely to an emergency by converting preparedness plans into action. 30 Seeking shelter from a cyclone or moving out of the buildings during an earthquake are both response activities. The GoI Action Plan for management of the outbreak of bird flu is an example of the effective handling of an outbreak of livestock disaster in the country. iv) A comprehensive strategy for recovery actions to bring back normalcy, including assistance for repairs and other losses will be identified in DM plans. Safety is an important aspect of a response plan and every action plan will enumerate different responding activities to be undertaken for the effective management of livestock disasters. The response plan will be rehearsed to remove the plausible anomalies in actions.

6.6.7 Steps for Prevention, Mitigation and Preparedness DM plans at all levels will include the following important measures: i) Public awareness about natural disasters that different regions and the country are most likely to experience and their consequences on the livestock sector. ii) Provisions to establish adequate facilities to predict and warn about the disasters periodically, including forecasting disease outbreaks. This could only be achieved by a well networked surveillance mechanism that proactively monitors emerging infections and epidemics. iii) Development and implementation of relevant policies, procedures and legislation for management of disasters in the animal husbandry sector. The livestock health infrastructure in India, modelled to provide routine veterinary cover, needs reorganisation in view of emerging epidemics/challenges. The existing animal husbandry policies will be revisited and if required, modified to cater to changing realities. iv) Mobilise the necessary resources, e.g., access to feed, water, health care, sanitation and shelter, which are all short-term measures. In the long term, resettlement. programmes, psycho-social, economic and legal needs (e.g., counselling, documentation, insurance) are required tobe undertaken. v) Another long-term strategy is required to readjust the livestock production system in the country from a biosecurity point of view so that in the event of the entry of any new, dangerous pathogen, the losses could be minimised by segregation. vi) Initiation of PPP in livestock emergency management, especially in the field ofvaccine production, will go a long way in combating animal health emergencies of infectious origin. Similar partnership in feed manufacturing as well as livestock production will minimise the losses due to other livestock emergencies. vii) Commissioning of risk assessments on high-priority disease threats and subsequent identification of those diseases whose occurrence would constitute a national emergency. viii) Appointment of drafting teams for the preparation, monitoring and approval of contingency plans. Implementation of simulation exercises to test 31 and modify animal health emergency plans and preparedness are also necessary.

ix) Assessment of resource needs and planning for their provision during animal health emergencies. x) Central/state governments will develop/ establish an adequate number of R&D and biosafety laboratories in a phased manner for dealing with animal pathogens.

xi) A dedicated establishment, preferably under DADF, may be entrusted with the overall monitoring of the national state of preparedness for animal health emergencies. xii) Development of active disease surveillance and epidemiological analysis capabilities and emergency reporting systems.

xiii) A computer-based national grid of surveillance and disease reporting should be developed for timely detection and containment of any emergent epidemic. xiv) An intelligence cell—Central Bureau of Health Intelligence under DGHS should be raised to assist the proposed National Animal Disaster Emergency Planning Committee (NADEPC).

xv) Immunization of all persons who are likely to handle diseased animals such as anthrax infected cattle and animals.

67 FLOOD MANAGEMENT PLAN 2015- 16

1. Floods are recurrent annual phenomena and the Flood Management Plan should ideally be built to minimize losses of all types, primarily loss of human lives and secondarily, loss to property like livestock, crops, community assets, personal belongings etc. When disaster strikes, automatically, the District Administration has traditionally responded in all parts of the Country is an exemplary manner. However, if a good Disaster Management Plan is in place , every step taken in time of disaster will yield magnified resolution in the form of more effective rescue and relief operation. Our Plan should ensure that when a flood strikes there is standardized POA and rehearse procedure set in place so that precious time is not lost due to confusion regarding who is to do what.

2. Unakoti District is bestowed with a high average annual rainfall of 2700 mm(approximately) with average number of rainy days at 92 per year. Normally, rain arrives in late April and continuous up to October. However, the intensity of rainfall increases during the month of JUNE – September. Higher rainfall occurring during this period causes flood in low laying areas and erosion of land. The spatial distribution of rainfall under Unakoti District is as follows.
