MULTI HAZARD DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
2.1. 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
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 3
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 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‘.
2.2 Why DDMP?
Vulnerability of the Unakoti District towards disasters, both natural and man- made is widely recognized. The district is vulnerable towards natural disasters like; Earthquakes, floods, storms, droughts and manmade disasters like fire, riot etc. Losses caused by disasters continue to mount year after year. The need for an effective disaster management strategy to lessen disaster impact is being felt in many quarters and also for strengthening of organizational structure for disaster management. Along with, regular updating of Codes/Manual/Disaster Plans on the basis of experience gained and technological developments should be done.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 4
It was felt that the generic categorization of disasters would help in preparing disaster management plans. This generic categorization of disasters is in no way intended to disturb handling of specific disasters by various departments.
Precise actions, procedures and responsibilities have to be laid down well in advance in order to ensure timely response in case of any disaster. Therefore, a mechanism that takes into account multiple hazards and basic preparedness has to be articulated in the form of Incident Response Team, Quick Response Teams, Quick Assessment Teams, Reporting Procedures, Checklist and Handbooks. The mechanism also lays down crucial parameters, requirements and organizational composition of Emergency Operations Centers and Incident Response Systems.
2.3 Objective:
The objectives behind the preparation of the District Disaster Management Plan is-
To mitigate impact of natural and man-made disasters through preparedness at District, Circle, Block, Gram Panchayat and Village level.
To provide effective support and resources to all the concerned individuals, groups and departments during disaster.
To identify all common elements of response.
To assist the line departments, block administration, communities in developing compatible skills for disaster preparedness and management.
To disseminate factual information in a timely, accurate and tactful manner while maintaining necessary confidentiality.
To develop immediate and long-term support plans for vulnerable people in/during disasters.
To create awareness among the people about hazard occurrence and increase their participation in preparedness, prevention, development, relief, rehabilitation and reconstruction process.
To have response system in place to face any eventuality.
To affect or elicit the least possible disruption to the normal life process when dealing with individuals in disaster.
To identify the available resources including manpower, material, equipment and adequate delegation of financial and administrative powers for successful operation of the DDMP.
To ensure active participation by the government administration, communities, NGOs, CBOs and volunteers at all levels making optimal utilization of human and material resources at the time of disaster.

2.4 Vision:-
Section 31 of the DM Act., 2005 provides that there shall be a plan for Disaster Management for every District which shall be prepared by the District authority after consultation with the local authorities and having regard to the National and State Plan and shall include areas in the District Vulnerable to forms of Disasters, measures to be taken, prevention & mitigation of disasters by the Departments of the Govt. at the District Level and local authorities in the district. The capacity building and preparedness measures required to be taken by the Department of the Govt. at the district and local authorities to respond to any threatening disaster situation or disaster should be taken in to account.
On the basis of extent information and knowledge the plan has formulated and will be updated regularly adding fresh inputs on an ongoing basis. Pending detailed micro-level vulnerability analysis and assessment of risk the plan has been prepared incorporating available information from different sources and vulnerability profile including information of various areas of the district as a whole.

CHAPTER-4
RISK ASSESSMENT AND VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS
4.1. Disaster Probability:
Flood:
During rainy seasons, all the major rivers in the district carry gallons of water pose potential threat of flood. The heavy rainfall in the catchment areas of the district causes the rising of water level above the danger level.
Storm:
Unakoti district is highly vulnerable to storm. Storms generally bring in their trail heavy rains with hailstones causing damage to property and crops.
Fire Accidents:
Fire accidents present a serious problem to the houses and the market places in Unakoti district. This is mostly due to the peculiar housing pattern adopted in the villages. These houses have generally mud-built walls with thatched roofs made out of timber, bamboo and straw. Any occurrence of fire destroys houses and properties thereby causing serious damage to the affected people. Earth Quake:
The entire North-East region is in the seismic zone V, i.e. probability of happening of earthquake more than 8 magnitudes in Richter scale. Though Unakoti district has not experienced any major earthquake in recent past causing damage to lives or infrastructure, the possibility can never be ruled out as it can happen any time.

7.4. Livestock Management during Disasters:-
The following preparations are essential for management 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 may provide 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 drought prone areas depends on land-based activities like crop farming and animal husbandry, the core task for development will be to promote rational utilization 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 presence of livestock can exacerbate conflict when refugees with animals compete for reduced forage and 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.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 41
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 immunize livestock against various diseases. The creation of a community based animal health care delivery system may significantly reduce livestock deaths in a region. Vaccination programmers‘ 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.
7.4.1. Disposal of Dead Animals during Disasters:-
Carcasses can be a hazard to the environment and other animals and require special handling. To minimize 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 insecurity 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.
7.4.2. 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. 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.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 42
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.

CHAPTER-8
REHABILITATION AND RECONSTRUCTION PLAN
Rehabilitation and reconstruction comes under recovery phase immediately after relief and rescue operation of the disaster. This post disaster phase continues until the life of the affected people comes to normal. This phase mainly covers damage assessment, disposal of debris, disbursement of assistance for houses, formulation of assistance packages, monitoring and review, cases of non- starters, rejected cases, non-occupancy of houses, relocation, town planning and development plans, awareness and capacity building, housing insurance, grievance redressed and social rehabilitation etc.
8.1 Post Disaster Reconstruction and Rehabilitation
Post disaster reconstruction and rehabilitation should pay attention to the following activities for speedy recovery in disaster hit areas. The contribution of both government as well as affected people is significant to deal with all the issues properly.
Damage assessment Disposal of debris Disbursement of assistance for houses Formulation of assistance packages Monitoring and review Cases of non-starters, rejected cases, non-occupancy of houses relocation Town planning and development plans Reconstruction as Housing Replacement Policy Awareness and capacity building Housing insurance Grievance redressal
8.2 Administrative Relief
The district is the primary level with requisite resources to respond to any natural calamity, through the issue of essential commodities, group assistance to the affected people, damage assessment and administrating appropriate rehabilitation and restoration measures.
The district level relief committee consisting of official and non-official members including the local legislators and the members of parliament review the relief measures. Unakoti district is sub-divided into2 sub-divisions i.e. Kailashahar, Kumarghat. The head of sub-division is called the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) while development officer (BDO). When a disaster is apprehended, the entire machinery of the district, including the officers of technical and other departments, swings into action maintains almost continuous contact with each village in the disaster threatened area.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 44
8.3 Reconstruction of House Damaged / Destroyed:-
House should be reconstructed in the disaster hit areas according to the following instructions:
Owner Driven Reconstruction Public Private Partnership Programme (PPPP) Under the PPPP the house are reconstructed by the NGOs for the beneficiaries to be registered in the joint names of the husband and wife. All the houses should be insured. Owner Driven Reconstruction Financial, technical and material assistance provided by the Government. The designs for seismic reconstruction of houses provided by the Government. The material assistance provided through material banks at subsidized rates. Design of 20 model houses provided to the public to choose from with an option to have one‘s own design.
8.4 Military Assistance:-
If the district administration feels that the situation is beyond its control then immediate military assistance could be sought for carrying out the relief operation.
8.5 Medical Care:-
Specialized Medical Care may be required to help the affected population preventive medicine may have to be taken to prevent outbreak of diseases.
8.6 Epidemics:-
In the relief camps set up for the affected population, there is a livelihood of epidemics from a number of sources. The strategy should be to subdue such sources and immunize the population against them. The public health centres, health departments can practice vaccination drives, public awareness to drink boiled water, use chlorine tablets to purify the water sources.
8.7 Crops Disposal:-
Disposal of dead bodies is to be carried out as a part of the operation to prevent outbreak of epidemics. Minimum official requirements should be maintained as it is a very sensitive issue. The following points may be considered by the concerned authorities at the time of corpse disposal:-
Mass photographs of corpses, Consent of the relatives or hand over them Make panchnama of concerned localities.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 45
8.8. Outside Assistance:-
During disaster situation, considerable relief flows in from outside, thus there is an immediate need to co-ordinate the relief flows so that the maximum coverage is achieved and there is no duplication of work in the same area.
8.9. Special Relief:-
Along with compensation packages, essential items may have to be distributed to the affected population to provide for temporary sustenance.
8.10. Information:-
Information flow and review is essential part of the relief exercise. Constant monitoring is required to assess the extent of damage, which forms the basis of further relief to the affected areas.
8.11. Social Rehabilitation:-
Disabled persons Artificial limbs fitted to affected persons. Modern wheelchairs, supportive devices provided.
Children Orphaned children are fostered. Day centers set up Orphanages established. Child help lines established.
Paraplegics Pension scheme introduced for paraplegics. Physiotherapy under continuous supervision of doctors.

CHAPTER- 9 FLOOD MANAGEMENT PLAN 2016-17
9.1. FLOOD MANAGEMENT:-
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. Information regarding water level of river of Unakoti District
