EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The District Disaster Management Plan is consider as a key part of an emergency/disaster Management. It plays a significant role to address the unexpected disasters that may occur in the district due to its, physiographic and climatic conditions. Based on the history of disasters specially flood that occurs in the Panipat district, the District Disaster Management Plan (DDMP) Panipat has been so designed as an action plan rather than a resource book. The information available in DDMP is valuable in terms of its use not only during disaster but also during a normal time. Utmost attention has been paid to make it handy, precise rather than bulky one. The plan has been prepared on the guidelines provided by the National Institute of Disaster Management (NIDM) Delhi & the Centre for Disaster Management, Haryana Institute of Public Administration, Gurgaon. The District Disaster Management Plan is formulated through participatory approach. To consider the fact that during the time of disaster there may be a delay before outside help arrives. Therefore an effort has been made to collect information and develop this plan to make it more applicable and effective to handle any type of disaster. The DDMP Panipat involves some significant issues like the Hazard analysis, Incident Response System (IRS), Emergency Preparedness Checklist, Standard Operating Procedures(SOPs) for different stakeholders, Rapid Damage Assessment Framework, District Resource Inventory, India Disaster Resource Network (IDRN) website, Haryana state disaster management authority website, and the location of the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) etc.

In fact, the response mechanism, an important part of the plan is designed with the Incident Response System (IRS). District resource inventory in excel sheet format gives an importance in the plan so that during disaster their optimum use within minimum time may be derived. The most necessary equipments, skilled manpower and critical supplies are included in the inventory resources. During disaster, the resources from here may be ordered without delay which will make the response time lesser. The District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) Panipat has commitment of the protection of the vulnerable section of society, which has been reflected through the district disaster management plan (DDMP) and hope that the plan succeeds in bring a culture of disaster preparedness and prevention in our district Panipat.

1.1.7 Soil

The entire district is a part of the Haryana plain and appears to be monotonously flat with slopes from North east to south and south west. Geologically, the area constitutes a part of Indo-Gangetic alluvial plain exposing quarternary deposits, which owe their origin to (tectonic changes) downward caused by the upliftment of the Himalayas. These quaternary sediments comprise alternating layers of sand, silt and silty clay of alluvial origin. Underlying the alluvium are consolidated Shiwalik and older tertiary sediments of Himalayan piedmont and below these lie more consolidated older formations such as Gondwana and Cretaceous. There is no exposure of hard rock in this area. Tropical arid soils are found in Panipat district. The soil generally varies from sandy loam to loam with alkaline patches of variable pH. The area along the river Yamuna contain light soils and water table lies close to the surface soils are deep and grade varies from sandy loam near surface to clay loam in the sub-surface horizons. The darkness attributes to relatively high amount of organic matter.

1.2.1 Culture

The largest segment of the population in Panipat belonged to Hindu religion and most of the temples in the city are concern with lord Rama, Vishnu and Shiva .However, Sikhs, Muslims and Christians also form smaller part of the entire population. Haryanavi is commonly also from smaller part of the entire population. Haryani is commonly spoken language of city.

Moreover, Punjabi, Hindi and English are also spoken widely by the people. A lot of festivals are celebrated in the city with great enthusiasm. Some of the most famous festival to be celebrated in Panipat is Lhori, Gangaur and Gugga Naomi. ‘Teej’Diwali is major festivals of people residing in the district. In addition, there are occasional Mela’s arranged in various parts of the district. The cuisine of Panipat is very simple and wholesome having goodness of land .The main food in Panipat is loaves made Frome flour with salt and green chillies. Another popular food is khichdi or porridge made of bajra or rice. Roti (a bread made of grinded bajra, wheat is regular bread) along with curd is staple diet of people typical male wares a long kurta and pyjama and women prefer a sari and a blouse also Punjabi suit is popular in many parts.

1.2.2 Health

17-Primary Health Centers, 1-Community Health Centers and 90-Sub-Health Centers, besides these, there are no Homeopathic Centers and Unani Hospital .There is 17 Ayurvedic institutions in the district. Besides these hospitals and dispensaries, the selected private nursing home and hospitals are also available in the district.

1.2.2 Transport and Connectivity

Panipat railway station is on Delhi-Kalka line. It is also well connected by Haryana State Road Transport Corporation and Punjab Roadways buses, especially because it falls on the Delhi-Chandigarh route. National Highway 1 (known as GT road locally) passes through Panipat, and a substantial amount of trade and commercial activities are carried in and around the GT road settlement.

2. Hazards, Vulnerability, Capacity and Risk

Analysis

A Hazard, Risk, and Vulnerability Assessment (HRVA) examine the hazards that may impact a community and the risk that each hazard event poses to the community as a whole and to vulnerable elements of the community. The objective of the Hazard, Vulnerability & Risk Analysis is to: 1. Investigate prominent natural and human caused events. 2. Identify any threat that may require timely response to protect lives, property & reduce economic loss. 3. Identify vulnerable groups who need more concern during any calamity.

2.1 Hazard Analysis

United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction has defined hazard as “a dangerous phenomenon, substance, human activity or condition that may cause loss of life, injury or other health impacts, property damage, loss of livelihoods and services, social and economic disruption, or environmental damage”. In simple words, a hazard is probability of occurrence of an event that has the potential for causing injury to life or damage to property or the environment. To keep the district safe and disaster resilient, a comprehensive hazard assessment is necessary. The plan follows a team approach through hazard-wise seasonality map and district hazards list.

A list of disasters has been identified by the High Powered Committee, Government of India (1999). Table 3.1, showing those listed 31 disasters and out of that 19 hazards are identified that could affect the Panipat district (written in red colour). About 22.8% landmass is prone to flood; 66.7% area lies in earthquake zone IV and rest 33.3% in earthquake zone III; 100% area is prone to damage due to wind speed in 47 m/s (169.2 km/h) (Source: Vulnerability Atlas of India, made by Building Material and Technology Promotion Council). Besides this, history Samjhauta Express Blast 2007, NFL Ammonia leak, 1992; presence of many industries in this City of Weavers; high population density i.e. 949; highly Congested areas; vicinity to Delhi makes it more vulnerable towards accident related disasters also.

Disaster Proneness of Panipat district

2.2 Hazard in Panipat

The district has been traditionally vulnerable to different disasters on account of its unique geo-climatic condition. The following are the hazards that have a probability of occurrence in Panipat district, based on the history of their occurrence and geo-climatic condition.

• Earthquake • Industrial/chemical Accident • Flood • Fire • Road/ Rail Accidents • Hailstorms, Thunderstorm, Dust storm & Fog • Wind storm • Terrorist attack

Each hazard is discussed as fallowing:

2.2.1 Earthquake Earthquakes may cause a number of phenomena, including ground motion, surface faulting, ground failure, and liquefaction. An earthquake’s magnitude reflects an earthquake’s strength. Damage to buildings generally begins to occur at magnitude six, while an earthquake above magnitude seven may be a major disaster if it occurs near a populated area. Above a map prepared by Bureau of Material and Technology Promotion Council and printed in Vulnerability Atlas -2nd Editions indicates that Panipat district falls in seismic zone III & IV which, is considered to be facing highest danger of earthquakes in India after the

Zone-V. This makes the area liable to MSK intensity of “VIII” and is considered as High Risk Zone.

A Regional Plan Document prepared by National Capital Region Planning Board stated that earthquakes of intensity lower than four on the Richter scale have originated from14 epicentres located in the NCR. Earthquake in Delhi and neighbourhood areas is related to tectonic activity along the faults passes through the NCR region. There are some minor and one major lineament i.e. Mahendergarh-Dehradun Fault passes through the territory of Panipat and making it susceptible to strong earthquakes having magnitude up to 6 - 7. Such earthquakes could cause moderate damage in well-designed/built structures/buildings, while poorly built structures suffer great damages.

Regional Plan Document by National Capital Regional Planning Board

This physical vulnerability further execrate by unawareness among People NCR region. In the Year 2012, an earthquake of magnitude 4.9 occurred on 5th March at towards earthquake. Old multi- storey building and industrial area are under high seismic risk. Panipat is basically an industrial district if any earthquake of magnitude 7.0 occurs, it affect the district largely. No major earthquake yet occurred in the district but possibility may not be ruled out because it is 90 km far from Delhi13:11 hrs IST which was felt widely in Delhi and neighbouring states including Haryana. The earthquake tremor is felt in Panipat and 2 people reported injured due to house lantern collapsed. Plate 2.1 shows the collapsed lantern of house.

Fig 2.2 Seismo -Tectonic Features

Plate 2.1

Collapsed lantern of house

Delhi falls in zone IV. If any major earthquake occurs in Delhi region it impacts the surrounding areas of 300 km. Delhi faces severe earthquake hazard due to its vicinity to the tectonically active Himalayan region. In addition, several small faults exist very close to the city and their activity may lead to strong ground motions in Delhi. The area is characterized by several dominant features such as the Delhi – Haridwar ridge, the Aravali – Delhi fold, the Sohna fault, the Mathura fault and the Moradabad fault. The distribution of the epicentres appears to have a NE-SW trend, correlated with the direction of major tectonic features of the region. Coupled with the settlement pattern, the geological characteristics, such

35 as depth of alluvial soil, play a crucial role in determining the magnitude of risk. For example, the Yamuna River bed section extending till Noida and Faridabad are more vulnerable to damage even by a moderate earthquake because they are on alluvial soil up to 200 m deep. These regions face a very grave problem of soil liquefaction during an earthquake. Moreover, earthquakes are amplified by the alluvial soils. The Ridge is comparatively safer as it has a rocky base.

Movements of earth are but omens of possible earthquakes. Thrust in the Himalayas are moving at varying speeds of one to two centimetres per year along the Nahan Riasi, 5.8 centimeters per year along the Himalayan thrust and 0.9 centimetres per year the krol thrust near kalsi.

Experts predict that in the next 50 years the region is bound to be hit by severe earthquake of magnitude 6.0 on the Richter scale. They also state that there is an 80% probability of the occurrence of an earthquake of the magnitude 7.0. The forecast is based on the detailed analysis of past earthquakes and underground movement of the region backed up by satellite imageries.

2.2.2 Chemical and Industrial related Hazard

✓ Chemical Hazard and Risk assessment

Panipat is primarily an industrial and commercial District. It is a city of textiles and carpets. At present it has total 3497 small and 39 large & medium scale units including 8 MAH units out of these MAH units three are major public sector projects i.e. the Indian Oil Corporation oil refinery, the National Fertilizers Limited plant and the thermal power station in Panipat. It is biggest centre in the country for producing shoddy (recycled) yarn, and a large consumer of rags for reprocessing. Samalkha, a small town near Panipat, is known for foundry work and supply of agricultural machinery to neighbouring Uttar Pradesh.

Baholi, Transport of Petroleum Refinery, Panipat Products through Pipeline 8 M/s Panipat Thermal Power Station, assand road, Panipat Power Generation These chemical industries and oil refinery are storing, handling, manufacturing, transporting and using large and bulk quantities of various hazardous chemicals. Many of these chemicals are toxic, highly reactive, explosive, flammable, or poisonous or have a combination

36 of these characteristics. Due to these properties and impact of disasters such as nature of natural calamity as well as manmade, they have the potential to cause harm to human beings, other living creatures, plant, property and the environment in general as resulting emergencies of fire, explosion, toxic release, radioactive, poisoning.

The fire or explosion or toxic release or poisoning or radioactive hazard or combination of them is possible in the industries of the district due to following types of risks:-

a) Mechanical Risks b) Electrical Risks c) Fire/Explosion Risks d) High /low Temperature Exposure Risks e) Toxic/Carcinogenic Chemicals Exposure Risks f) Corrosive/Reactive/Radioactive Chemicals Exposure Risks The first two types of risks are of universal nature associated with any industrial activity and not specific to a particular plant or process. Mechanical risks which are generally encountered are injuries to the head, Limbs, eyes, etc usually as results of negligence on the part of operating/maintenance personnel in the use of improper tools, bypassing prescribed safety procedures neglect of personal protective wear and risks associated with rotating machinery as well as risks associated with high-energy release from compressed gases. Electrical risks which result in shock and/or burns are most often a consequence of poor maintenance, ingress of dust or moisture, handling by unauthorized personnel and use of improper/substandard hardware.

An explosion may be caused by the ignition of flammable gases or vapours when mixed with air. Common explosion sources include pipelines and utility ducts, propane storage tanks, soil-generated gases, blasting equipment, and hazardous chemicals. A malfunction in any of a number of technical systems in the community could lead to an explosion. Vapour explosions are possible where flammable gases, such as natural gas, may leak and collect.

Sewer Blast occurred in National Fertilizers Limited (NFL) on 26 august, 1992. Liquid ammonia burst out at the high pressure of 23 kg per sq cm, vaporizing within seconds to form suffocating clouds of deadly gas. Workers, working at that time, trying to diffuse the gas with water sprays and Liquid ammonia hit workers coughing and choking, with lungs bursting, scrambled for fresh air which resulted into death of eleven persons and injured ten.

Plate 2.2 Ammonia burst in NFL, Panipat

These incidents are infrequent and of a localized nature, therefore the risk of gas leaks and Explosions is possible in the Panipat district.

Risk assessment of major MAH units in the district:

A) National fertilizers Limited: Panipat Unit of NFL is situated at the southern side of Panipat at a distance of 3 Km towards National Highway No.1. NFL is a Chemical fertilizer factory for production of urea as main product. The designed capacity of the plant is to produce 1550 TPD of urea as main product, 900 TPD of Ammonia as inter mediate product & 26.5 TPD of element sulphur as by product from basic raw material FO/LSHS as feed stock. Unit is having storage facilities of chemicals. The available storage capacities of chemicals & maximum quantities stored is given in following table.

C) Indian Oil Corporation Limited: Panipat Oil Terminal of IOCL is situated adjacent to the Panipat Refinery and around 15 Km away from Panipat town and is well connected by road. The IOCL Oil Terminal is surrounded by Panipat Refinery and IBP terminal at a distance about 250 meters. The total area covering the depot is 300 acres. Panipat Oil terminal of I.B.P COMPANY LTD is situated near the IOCL Panipat OIL TERMINAL and it is around 200 mitres from IOCL primal. It is about 1 km of Panipat Refinery and 15 Km away from Panipat Town.

The various products handled in the IOCL terminal. These are: a) Motor sprit b) High Speed Diesel c) Superior Kerosene oil d) Aviation turbine Fuel e) Furnace oil f) Naphtha g) Bitumen

Identification of Hazards: Petroleum oils are highly inflammable in their basic character. They are dangerous because of their intrinsic properties i.e. flash point, ignition energy required, heat of combustion, flammability limits, etc. in addition to such intrinsic properties, extrinsic factors like storage & operating conditions and large storage quantity are also considered for hazard identification.

The extent of the consequences arising from the petroleum oil depot would depend on quantity of the oil present, mode of containment, and external factors like location, density of population etc. In many cases, realization of hazard and its potential also depend on prevailing meteorological conditions and availability if ignition source. Thus most serious consequences would arise from a large inventory of petroleum oil surrounded by a densely populated area.

2.2.3 FLOOD

The District lies in the indo Gangetic plain area. It slopes from north east to south west but in eastern part slope is from north to south. The plain is a flat area. The only Perennial River Yamuna makes eastern boundary of the district. The district possesses a good network of canals emanating from Western Yamuna Canal (Delhi Branch) which passes

40 through the centre of the district in north south direction. All the distributaries depend upon this canal for water requirement. The canal takes off from Yamuna River at Tajewala and strong masonry weir is built. The main reason behind flood is excessive discharge in Yamuna. The normal average discharge in this river is 1,00,000 Cusecs but sometimes due to heavy rainfall in the hilly area, the discharge increases up to 3,00,000-6,00,000 Cusecs. In 2010 floods, discharge in river Yamuna increased abruptly from 30,000 cusecs on September 7,2010 to 3,30,000 cusecs on September 8 in the morning, which further increased to a peak discharge of 6,07,000 cs. at Hathni Kund Barrage in the evening and leading to a 80-feet breach in the Yamuna at Pathergarh and submerged an area of 2,500 acre. Below table 3.5 shows a comparative analysis of Rainfall and discharge (Lac Cusecs) in Yamuna for last 8 years and 3.5 shows discharge and flood risk. The drainage conditions in each of the two zones are as follows:

The Yamuna Basin The eastern part of the State (the Yamuna Basin) has the most elaborate drainage network comprising about 350 main and tributary drains of a total length of 3,000 km. Yet the system is still not capable of draining accumulated surface water from all lands sufficiently fast and, following heavy rains during the monsoon season, there are many pockets of standing water, which can be attributed mainly to non construction of the field drains at micro level.

The Ghaggar Basin (Part of Indus Basin)

The Ghaggar basin covers an area of 27882 km2 or 63 % of Haryana’s area in the districts of Ambala, Kurukshetra (in part), Kaithal, Fatehabad, Sirsa, Jind, Hisar, Bhiwani, and Mahendragarh. The Ghaggar River runs along the boundary between Haryana and Punjab states, crossing it at several points. Though less severe than in the Yamuna Zone, flooding in this Zone is exacerbated by cross-Ghaggar inflows (from the Punjab) in the districts of Kaithal, Fatehabad and Sirsa. Constructed embankments along Ghaggar River and its tributaries have reduced the frequency of inundation but not eliminated it as heavy rainfall and inflows across the Ghaggar River, still persist. A map prepared by Bureau of Material and Technology Promotion Council and printed in Vulnerability Atlas -2nd Edition is shown area liable to floods/inundation in Haryana. Floods have been recurrent phenomenon in Panipat. It is because of presence of only perennial River of Haryana i.e. Yamuna, flows almost along with entire eastern boundary of the District

2.2.4 Fire

Fire is a major disaster in urban as well as in rural areas in Panipat and generating risk to residential, commercial, educational, institutional and industrial establishments. Fire accidents happened during last five years which lead to deaths and injury is shown in (Table 2.10). Most

45 of the accident reported in the city is due to inadequate safety measures in the electrical installation and chemical and LPG blasts, as well as careless practices while handling and storage of inflammable materials. Some examples of the fire accidents in the city are: On October 7, 2007 a major fire broke out in a textile mill in Panipat. In which 10 people died and the cause of the fire was short circuit. On June 12, 2010 a fire broke out in the chemical storage vessels installed along the naphtha cracker plant. The vessel contained 5 tonnes of triethylaluminum (TEAL), a chemical used in the industrial production of polymers in which 2 people were injured.

2.2.5 Extreme Temperatures

✓ Hailstorms, Thunderstorm, Dust storm & Fog April to June is the period with the highest incidence of thunderstorms and dust storms. Violet squalls (Andhis) often company such storms. Some of the thunderstorms do not give any appreciable rain, but others often accompanied with heavy rain and occasional hail. Thunderstorms also occur in the winter months in association with passing western disturbances. Fogs sometimes dense occur in the cold season. ✓ Wind storm, Heat wave A heat wave can take a number of forms. Such events can be characterized by temperatures significantly above the mean for an extended period of time, or by a combination of high temperatures with high humidity and lack of air motion. Impacts of heat waves can range from crop losses to high mortality due to heat stroke or the aggravation of existing conditions such as high blood pressure or heart disease. The elderly and very young are particularly vulnerable to very hot and humid conditions. According to historic climate data collected by India Meteorological Department, Chandigarh, May and June are the hottest months with the mean daily maximum temperature at about 40˚C. From about April hot westerly winds, locally known as ‘Luh’ begin to blow and weather becomes intensely hot and drying. In May and June maximum temperature may sometimes go to 45˚С. Wind speed in Panipat could be reached up to 47 m/s (169 km/h) occasionally in what is called ‘Andhi’ (wind storm). In such events, weak houses of thatch, sheets etc. will suffer damage. However, the damage occurring in 'Andhis' is again of localized nature and does not result in ‘disaster’ in the region.

2.2.6 Road Accident

Accidents and the fatalities on road are the result of inter‐play of a number of factors. Road users in Panipat are heterogeneous in nature, ranging from pedestrians, animal‐driven carts, bi‐cycles, rickshaws, and tractor trolleys, to various categories of two/three wheelers, motor cars, buses, trucks, and multi‐axle commercial vehicles etc. Table 2.11 shows that each year on average above 496 road accident took place in Panipat. 3033 accident were reported in the Panipat during the year 2008-2013. The vehicles population has been steadily increasing. Increase in vehicle population in the face of the limited road space used by a large variety of motorized and non‐motorized traffic has heightened the need and urgency for a well‐thought‐out policy on the issue of road safety.

2.2.7 Epidemics & Pandemics Epidemics cause serious illness and death, especially among those who have weakened immune systems due to age or underlying medical conditions. A pandemic is an epidemic that affects a very large geographic area and is often global. Malaria is a common infectious disease that affects large numbers of people annually in the district. Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease of humans and other animals caused by eukaryotic protests of the genus Plasmodium. The disease results from the multiplication of Plasmodium parasites within red blood cells, causing symptoms that typically include fever and headache, in severe cases progressing to coma or death. Influenza' A (H1N1) virus is a subtype of influenza A virus and was the most common cause of human influenza (flu) in 2009. Some strains of H1N1 are endemic in humans and cause a small fraction of all influenza-like illness and a small fraction of all seasonal influenza. In June 2009, the World Health Organization declared the new strain of swine-origin H1N1 as a pandemic. This strain is often called swine flu by the public media. This l virus spread worldwide and had caused about 17,000 deaths by the start of 2010. On August 10, 2010, the World Health Organization declared the H1N1 influenza pandemic. 11 positive cases of influenza A (H1N1) are reported from Haryana, out of these 8 cases have been reported from Panipat and 2 reported from Panipat & 1 from Sirsa.

2.2.8 Other Hazards

Terrorist Attack Panipat is at the risk of terrorist attack as it is an industrial district. It has 50,000 operational handlooms, 4500 micro and small scale industries and has 43 big and medium industries. Rs 3500 crore worth of handloom exported from Panipat annually. Panipat is 90 km far away from Delhi NCR region and has experienced a terrorist attack in Samjhauta express in Deewana, near Panipat in which 68 persons, including many Pakistanis were killed and other passengers sustained injuries during the Samjhauta express transit through Panipat on its way to Lahore to Delhi. Possibility of terrorist attack in the district cannot be neglected. In the year 2007 Samjhauta Express railway Disaster occurred on the intervening night of 18/19th February 2007 at Diwana Village, Panipat. In this Disaster 13 injured patients and 67 dead bodies were brought to the hospital. After first aid treatment all the 13 injured patients were referred to the Safdarganj Hospital, New Delhi. The Post-mortem of 67 dead bodies was also conducted at B.S.S.G Hospital, Panipat. All the injured persons were having burn injuries. (CMO, District Panipat).

2.3. A picture showing after effects of Terrorist Attack

• Riots A riot is a violent disorder, specifically a disturbance of the public peace by a group of persons with either a common or random intent to destroy property, assault persons or otherwise disturb the peace. The most likely form of civil disobedience is likely to come from labour unrest, strikes or environmental protests. The frequency of such an event in the District is low. • Structural Collapse Structural collapse may be caused by engineering or construction problems, metal fatigue, or changes to the load bearing capacity of the structure. When buildings collapse, there may be a significant number of injuries or fatalities and fires may result. Such events also cause damage to infrastructure, such as gas lines, electricity, water, sewer, and telephone lines. Gurdwara Pehli Patshahi is located on the National Highway-1, Collapsed at 12 June 2017 Monday evening at around 4:17 pm when evening prayer and launger preparation is going on and on the other hand contraction work is going on as the gurdwara is located in a very congested area. The main building of the gurdwara, comprising four floors, including the dome, collapsed.” Prima facie, the building collapsed under its own stress. Work on the false ceiling was on for the last two months as they had decided to change the colours of the pillars to beautify the Darbar hall. the drain flowing in the market close to the gurdwara may have damaged the foundation of the gurdwara building The lower portion could not bear the load of the structure 5 people were died) and six others injured when the main structure of Gurdwara Shri Guru Singh Sahib Pehli Patshahi collapsed under its own weight. The primary buildings of concern include older structures that were poorly designed or have not been maintained. Buildings that hold large numbers of people, such as schools, mini Secretariat, colleges and other recreation complexes present the greatest consequence. There have been no major incidences of structural collapse in the District. • Electrical Disasters Because of unsafe electrical supply and connections at several places electrical disasters risk is also in the district. Plate 2.4 Unsafe Electrical Supply system in Panipat city

• Festival Related Disaster

The first verse of the Bhagavat Gita is possibly referencing to Panipat as 'Dharmakshetra’ which shows its religious characteristic. In Indian culture, there are number of festivals which are celebrated by Hindu, Muslims, Christians and Sikhs. During Diwali festival the district draws huge crowds in the markets. There is considerable sale of the crackers by unauthorized persons other than the authorized licence holders. During the festival any small spark in the busy market places can be a cause for major fire.

• Plant Disease And Pest Infestation Plant diseases are generally defined as any series of harmful physiological processes caused by irritation of the plant by some invading agent. These agents are typically referred to as plant pathogens and include viruses, bacteria, fungi, and algae. Government agricultural department of Panipat routinely handle outbreaks of plant diseases and infestations through regular monitoring and pest surveillance in the district. They give training to the farmers regarding curative and preventive measures taken in respect to mitigate such diseases. Major plant species in the district are Sugarcane, wheat, jawar, rice, mustard, vegetables, moong, etc. most common disease in plant in the district are shown in table 2.12.

Table 2.12 List of Disease in plant in Panipat MOST COMMON DISEASE IN PLANT 1) Disease of Paddy • Red Rot Kharif crops & disease • False smut • Blast • Brown spat • Foot rot • Bacterial leaf stroke 2) Disease of Sugarcane • Rust • Stress of water • False smut • Red rot • Foot root 1) Disease of Wheat • Yellow rust Rabi Crops & disease • Black smut • Leaf smut • Karnal bunt • Black point • Powdery mildew 2) Disease of Gram • Wilt • Stem rot • Root rot • Fungus • Alternari blight 3) Disease of Mustard • Phillodi

• White rust • Downey mildew • Alternari blight

• Animal Disease Animal disease can be classified into non-infectious, infectious, and parasitic disease and can spread from animal to animal and from animal to human. Animal disease is primarily a concern for farmers who often suffer severe economic impacts as a result of such a hazard. Nonetheless, the potential for cross-species contamination means that there is a significant health concern for human populations. Most common animal disease in the district is Mastitis, Non-specific fever (bacterial /Viral) and season specific diseases in the animals are H.S.F.M.D, Hypophosphatemia, parasitic diseases.

Table 2.13 Species wise diseases in the District are: SPECIES DISEASES Cow & Buffaloes H.S, F.M.D, Trypanosomiasis Pigs Swine fever Sheep/Goat Enterotoxaemia, sheep-ox, PPR Equines Trypanosomiasis Poultry Parasitic disease, Fowl Typhoid, Choric Respiratory disease Total Population 326240

2.3 Hazard Seasonality Map

Hazards like floods, cold wave, drought; hailstorms etc. are climatic hazards and therefore have seasonal probability of occurrence. Mishaps like fires and chemical accidents can occur any season. Similarly, occurrence of earthquake is highly unpredictable and can occur in any season of the year, so its probability is throughout the year. Hazards like road accidents and rail accidents have high probability in the months of December and January as during these months there is dense fog all over the district may result into accidents. Similarly, hazardous chemicals transporting also have similar risk. The above mentioned list of hazards in Panipat, show a pattern depending upon the probability and severity of occurrence during various months of the year. The following table shows probability and seasonality of hazards.

2.4 Vulnerability Analysis

The UNISDR defines vulnerability as “the characteristics and circumstances of a community, system or asset that make it susceptible to the damaging effects of a hazard”. In simple words, vulnerability is a degree to which hazard impacts a community or area. According to the above mentioned hazards Panipat has multiple vulnerabilities depending upon various factors like the proximity of hazards, socio-economic conditions of the people, demographic characteristics and socio- cultural practises. Vulnerability assessment has many things in common with risk assessment. Assessments are typically performed according to the following steps: 1. Cataloguing assets and capabilities (resources) in a system. 2. Assigning quantifiable value (or at least rank order) and importance to those resources 3. Identifying the vulnerabilities or potential threats to each resource 4. Mitigating or eliminating the most serious vulnerabilities for the most valuable resources

2.4.1 Physical Vulnerability:

The physical vulnerability of an area also depends on its geographic proximity to the source and origin of the disasters. For natural hazards like floods this exposure is caused by living in geographical areas as specific as floodplains and area covered few meters around flood plains. It makes the area more vulnerable to disasters as compared to an area that is far away from the origin of the disaster. Physical vulnerability includes the difficulty in access to water resources, means of communications, hospitals, police stations, fire brigades, roads, bridges and exits of a building or/an area, in case of disasters. Furthermore, the lack of proper planning and implementation in construction of residential and commercial buildings results in buildings those are weaker and vulnerable in earthquakes, floods, landslides and other hazards. According to the above mentioned hazards Panipat has multiple villages which are settled down in flood prone area. Karauli, Rakashera, Budhanpur, Dehra , Raimal, Matnauli, Atta, Bilaspur, Begampur, Taharpur, Simblegarh, Nanehra, Adhmi, Mirzapur, Goela Khurd & Kalan, Jalmana, Sanjoli, Tajpur, Simla, Gujran, Babail, Barana.these are the physical vulnerable village of District Panipat.

2.4.2 Structural Vulnerability

Structural vulnerability means when buildings/ houses are incapable of resisting extreme stresses (e.g., high wind, heavy rains, seismic shaking,) Therefore, condition and material using for constructing of house plays a vital role in vulnerability towards various hazards like flood, earthquake, cold wave, fires, epidemic, thunder and hail storm etc. the following statistics shows the condition of housing in rural and urban parts of Panipat District.

2.4.3 Social Vulnerability

Social vulnerability means to the inability of people, community, organizations, and societies to withstand adverse impacts from multiple Hazard and Disaster. These impacts are due in part to characteristics inherent in social interactions, institutions, and systems of cultural values, caste system .these are the cause of arising of social vulnerability due to that during an emergency when there are chances of such groups being neglected.

2.4.4 Economic Vulnerability:

The economically weaker and unstable population are more vulnerable in a society than the normal sections People living in such areas tend to depend on agriculture for their livelihoods and the meeting of their basic needs. When crops and property are destroyed by extreme weather conditions, flood heavy rainfall, cold wave, heat wave, industrial accident for example gas leakage, fire, Due to that economically weak section can face number of challenging circumstances that may seriously threaten their well being. Losing a job, suffering illness, falling victim to a crime any one of these events can bring instability and distress into the lives of those directly concerned and their families. If people are unable to cope, their levels of well being may be drastically reduced, resulting in loss of income, material deprivation, deteriorating mental or physical health, and social exclusion.

4 Prevention & Mitigation Measures

It is clear from chapter – 2, that Panipat is a multi-hazard prone district. In respect to this certain majors for prevention and mitigation has been taken with respect to this district. Prevention can be defined as an action taken to avoid an incident or stopping an incident from occurring. It basically includes deterrence operations and surveillance. Mitigation refers to measures that prevent an emergency, reduce the chance of an emergency happening, or reduce the damaging effects of unavoidable emergencies.

4.1 Structural Mitigation & Non Structural Mitigation

Both structural and non-structural measures shall be taken as part of mitigation plan. Structural mitigation refers to any physical construction to reduce or avoid possible impacts of hazards, which include engineering measures and construction of hazard-resistant and protective structures and infrastructure. Non-structural mitigation refers to policies, awareness, knowledge development, public commitment, information sharing which can reduce risk.

4.2 Existing Schemes/Projects

There are a number of on-going schemes and projects in the district which will help out the widowed/destitute/handicapped people in a post-disaster scenario in order to generate livelihood options for them. There are also a few schemes which are for the health protective measures. These schemes can be used even in normal times in order to generate employment as well as development of the population. The projects indicate the ongoing works which will help in the prevention and mitigation process. Following is the list of the projects and the schemes which help in the prevention and the mitigation measures going on Panipat district.

4.3 Training of Human Resources

Another important factor in the mitigation process is the adequate training of human resources and thereby building the capacity of a district. A series of training programmes shall be organized for specialized groups like district level officers, sub division and community level office bearers, teachers and principals, doctors and engineers, architects and masons and builders and contractors etc. Even the community could be trained on

88 construction of buildings and other earth quake resistant structures through awareness, sensitisation, orientation and developing skills. A basic fire fighting training is compulsory to all employees, consultants, contract personnel and catering staff in order to have a fundamental knowledge of first aid fire fighting and to respond to the fires in the incipient stage.

At the district-level, assistance will be provided by consolidating the know-how and practical training provided by SDRF, Civil Defence and NGO, District Red Cross and Self Help Groups (SHGs) and disseminating it within the communities. The organizations like Civil Defence, NYK, NCC, NSS etc. have thousands of volunteers from every corner of the distinct. The district must train their volunteers and the wardens of these bodies in the district, thus people from various corners will be trained and sensitized in disaster management and this can make a magnifying result. The strengthening of Civil Defence in the district is yet another important prospect. The Civil Defence and Home Guards are indeed quite a helpful resource in times of emergency. They can be given awards, identity cards, honorarium, and certificates for their work so that more number of people volunteer themselves and participate in such works.

4.4 Retrofitting of critical infrastructure

Retrofitting means reinforcement of structures to become more resistant and resilient to the forces of natural hazards. This involves consideration of changes in the mass, stiffness, damping, load path and ductility of materials as well as radical changes such as the introduction of energy absorbing dampers and base isolation systems for example, consideration of wind loading to strengthen and minimize the wind force, or the strengthening of structures in earthquake prone areas. For an existing building, retrofitting or seismic strengthening is the only solution to make it disaster resistant. The lifeline buildings should primarily be retrofitted within the district followed by other significant buildings. Retrofitting should be carried out along with a panel of experts for assessing the structure and to suggest the type of retrofitting required

4.5 Land use planning

Land use planning is a newly emerging disaster reduction method. It is a powerful mitigation tool as it seeks to mitigate the risks and vulnerability from several geological and other hazards. So the logic of land use planning is compatible with disaster risk reduction because it is a systematic, future oriented, decision-oriented and proactive approach. The planning and control of land use includes a vast spectrum of general policies about it which leave determining effects and influences on programs and plans of urban development and cover economic, environmental, social and political aspects. Responsible management of the environment and its resources, and flexible and responsive development can prevent or mitigate negative impacts. The degree of effectiveness of land use planning and its efficiency in case of an earthquake from the time of the earthquake till the return of the city to its normalcy is significant and determines two indicators of vulnerability i.e. casualties and destruction. The urban areas and the cities (i.e. the more densely populated areas) need to be spatially planned in

89 order to reduce the risks of the hazards. The most important criteria for determining appropriate locations for different urban activities and urban land use include:- 1. Compatibility 2. Comfort 3. Efficiency 4. Favourability 5. Health and 6. Safety Considering these factors in land use planning and zoning improves efficiency of the city, welfare and comfort for the citizens and minimizing the fatalities and economic damages as a result of the hazard. Land use planning can minimize risk in a number of ways such as:

• Prohibiting development in high-risk areas through zoning and overlay controls; • Limiting the types of development in high to moderate risk areas for recreation or other forms of public use reducing the potential impacts of natural hazard events; and • Applying appropriate development controls in moderate and lower risk areas such as minimum elevations, setbacks and lot sizes, as well as maximum densities and site coverage

4.6 Enforcing Existing Codes and Laws

The list of codes and laws are and must be enforced in the district in order to prevent and mitigate the effects of the hazards. Bureau of India Standards, National Building Codes of India and subsequent amendments in various acts provides sufficient legal protection to the enforcing agencies for safe construction practices. The National Building Codes must be strictly followed in lifeline structures and should be immediately implemented wherever necessary. In construction work, the civil engineers have to follow Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) to construct resistant structures. The byelaws for control of vector borne diseases should be implemented and strictly followed by all the municipalities in the state of Haryana.

6 Capacity Building and Training Measures

As per the National Disaster Management Act (2005), capacity-building includes:

• Identification of existing resources and resources to be acquired or created; • Acquiring or creating resources identified under sub-clause (i); • Organization and training of personnel and coordination of such trainings for effective management of disasters.

The primary purpose of capacity-building in disaster management is to reduce risk and thus make communities safer. This can be done by increasing resilience and enhancing coping capacities. Effective capacity-building at the district level requires the active participation of all those who are tasked with it. It must, therefore, include maintaining a comprehensive and up-to-date District Disaster Management Resource Inventory, awareness generation, education, Research and Development (R&D) and systematic and systematized training. The Deputy Commissioner should ensure the following capacity-building activities of the entire district, and the various Heads of Departments should ensure capacity- building of their respective departments. Furthermore, the Nodal Officers should, in coordination with the HODs, procure relevant equipments for disaster management activities.

6.1. Institutional Capacity-building

Institutional capacity-building will be structured upon a level-system that will be designed to bring officials and professionals from multiple fields and skill-sets at the district level. The District Disaster Management Authority, Panipat will utilize the abilities and expertise of representatives from following areas, structured in the form of levels on the basis of priority.

6.2. Level-1 Capacity-Building

a) Centre for Disaster Management, HIPA

The Centre for Disaster Management (CDM), HIPA holds responsibility at the State level for conducting training programs on Disaster Management in all the districts of Haryana. The trainings take place over three to five days and involve district officials from various departments, as per the specificities of the training being conducted.

It is incumbent upon these officials to attend the trainings for which they have been nominated, and upon completion of the program, they shall receive certification from HIPA. The officials in charge of updating the DDMP, Panipat are

101

also responsible for keeping track of all trainings conducted and at the time of updating the plan, they are to include the names and contact details of all officials from Panipat district who have attended any disaster management related training in the past six-months. This will ensure the availability of trained human resources capable of dealing with disasters at the district level.

b) DDMA / HODs The role of district level officials in Panipat in terms of capacity-building and training is primarily that of the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA). The Authority will ensure that participants from various departments are nominated for the various disaster management related trainings conducted by CDM, HIPA and any other body/authority that is competent to conduct/organise trainings in the field of disaster management. The role of the DDMA will, thus, be predominantly that of coordination and monitoring. Furthermore, capacity-building at the institutional level should be done by carrying out various activities under the Mini Secretariat Safety Programme (MSSP).

The DDMA will also be responsible for ensuring that the Heads of Department (HODs) of the following departments discharge their responsibility of nominating officials from their departments for various disaster management trainings pertaining to their specific areas of work.

Agriculture Department

The HOD must ensure: i. Formation and training of a Weather Watch Group for the purpose of monitoring crops in the district. ii.

The efforts of the police go a long way in helping avoid and/or control chaos at disaster sites. They also help prevent human trafficking which is increasingly common in the aftermath of disasters these days. The trained police personnel should be placed on record within a district-level database of persons trained in disaster management. Trainings for the police personnel are thus, an important aspect of capacity-building in the district. District police also receives training specific to the role of the department from the Haryana Police Academy (HPA) in Karnal district.

104

Fire Services Department

For capacity-building, Fire Services in Panipat district should be made responsible for conducting fire-safety trainings for all district officials as well as for housing societies, shopkeeper associations, etc. from time to time. Panipat Fire Services should also be made responsible for conducting safety audits of various government and civilian buildings in order to check whether they are compliant with fire-safety norms. Furthermore, the Fire Services should conduct mock-drills for fire-fighting and evacuation procedures regularly, following a schedule stipulated by the District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), Panipat. Training programs on disaster management that are relevant to the role of the Fire Services are conducted by CDM, HIPA from time to time, and the District Administration, Panipat should ensure that fire personnel are deputed for such trainings. The trained Fire Services personnel should be placed on record within a district-level database of persons trained in disaster management. Such trainings are thus an important aspect of capacity- building in the district.

6.1.2. Level-2 Capacity Building

a. Civil Engineers (structural capacity-building)

There is strong evidence that appropriate engineering intervention can significantly reduce the risk of disasters. Civil engineers also play an important role in post- disaster conditions – in rescue operations, damage assessment and the retrofitting of structures. Civil engineers need to keep themselves updated about the latest research and developments in construction technology, advances in construction materials and analysis or design procedures. Civil engineers should also take support from other branches of engineering for the better planning, execution and functioning of their building and infrastructure projects. Trainings to Civil Engineers will be provided by CDM, HIPA. Furthermore, at the district level, civil engineers will conduct training of masons for construction of earthquake-resistant structures. Such trainings will be facilitated by the DDMA.

b. Corporate, Professionals

National Disaster Management Framework emphasizes on the ‘involvement of corporate sector in awareness generation and disaster preparedness and mitigation planning’. Keeping in mind the need to mainstream disaster management concerns at multiple levels of the corporate sector, the following steps should be taken into consideration: i. Through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Corporate can assist in development projects, and thus help enhance the capacity at the district-level. ii. Conducting mock-drills at regular intervals to determine the efficacy of the Disaster Management plans. iii. Large-scale association with awareness generation initiatives aimed at building the knowledge, attitude and skills of the common people for a safer habitat.

105

iv. To move away from relief-centric approach to a pro-active approach through risk management measures and capacity-building of industrial personnel through Business Continuity Planning (BCP), trainings and other measures. v. Training of a core team of structural engineers for retrofitting of existing industrial infrastructure as per requirement.

6.2 Strengthening of District (EOC)

As mentioned in Chapter 5, the Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) contains important equipments and resources such as maps and communication equipments including landline telephones, mobile phones, satellite phones, walkie-talkie, ham radio, computer/laptop with printer facility, email facility, fax machine, television, etc. In addition, it will also contain LCD monitors, printers, video-conferencing equipment, power sources and backups, copies of plans, etc. it is crucial to strengthen the district-level EOC. This can be done by ensuring regular training of all staff meant to be present in the EOC.

6.3 Capacity-building at the Community Level

Capacity-building at the community level includes awareness, sensitisation, orientation and developing skills of communities and community leaders. At the district-level, assistance will be provided by consolidating the know-how and practical training provided by NDRF, Civil Defence and NGOs, District Red Cross and Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and disseminating it within the communities. Multiple responsibilities within the arena of capacity-building and training will be delegated to local authorities, PRIs and ULBs under the overall guidance of District authorities. It is also crucial to focus on imparting training, cultivating community awareness and ensuring skill-development among members of the community. Furthermore, capacity-building at the community level should be done on the Public Private Partnership (PPP) model. This can be done by ensuring identification of local resources and developing local infrastructure through PPP. Community-based Disaster Risk Reduction (CBDRR) and Village Contingency Planning (VCP) are also critical for capacity- building at the community-level and will be managed by the concerned departments in the district.

6.4 Development of IEC Material

Addressing the specific requirements of vulnerable regions and the risk mitigation and preparedness needs of identified communities, various IEC material like list of do’s and don’ts, posters, leaflets, banners, training modules and audio visual material must be produced using capacity-building funds of the state. The aim is to develop a large body of advocacy and awareness materials, especially in vernacular languages, targeting vulnerable groups such as women, children, elderly, differently-baled, and marginalized and excluded groups.

106

7 Response and Relief

7.1 Declaration of Disaster

At an advent of any disaster, Deputy Commissioner as the ex-officio chairperson of District Disaster Management Authority is responsible for declaration of disaster, and activation of response and relief activities. To do so, first priority is to determine whether the resources are sufficient or not. If the situation is beyond the coping capacity of community in the affected area, then a disaster shall be declared. Declaration can be on the basis of level of disasters (L0, L1, L2 and L3) in affected area as per the NDMA guidelines.

This is the planning stage where plans at all levels from community to the State shall be put in place. Training on search and rescue, rehearsals, evaluation and inventory updation for response activities will be carried out during this time. L1 specifies disasters that can be managed at the district level, however, the state and centre will remain in readiness to provide assistance if needed. L2 specifies disaster situations that may require assistance and active participation of the state, and the mobilisation of resources at the state level. L3 disaster situations arise from large scale disasters where districts and the state may not have the capacity to respond adequately, and require assistance from the central government for reinstating the state and district machinery.

Level of disaster should be based on rapid damage and needs assessment reports (See Annexure III- Rapid damage and need assessment).

This coordination will also involve facilitating disaster- response by addressing special needs of services like sign language interpreters or language translators for communication and other needs. CTM will also be responsible for management of all the VIPs and VVIPs visiting the affected area. CTM must coordinate with police to ensure their safety and security without affecting response and relief work.

7.3 Disaster Reporting

Importance of disaster reporting is an important aspect to maintain clear communication among different levels of administration. This helps officers and staff to

109 understand situation precisely and respond effectively and efficiently. This also involves documentation of situation and maintaining its photographs.

8 Reconstruction, Rehabilitation and Recovery

The International Strategy for Disaster Reduction (ISDR) defines recovery as the “decisions and actions taken after a disaster with a view to restoring or improving the pre- disaster living conditions of the stricken community, while encouraging and facilitating necessary adjustments to reduce disaster risk”. The process demands co-ordinated focus on multi disciplinary aspects of reconstruction and rehabilitation for recovery and is essential to understand disaster reconstruction, rehabilitation under the holistic framework of post disaster recovery.

8.1 Post Disaster Reconstruction

Post disaster reconstruction includes both short term and long term activities. The short term activities refer to repair, restoration and strengthening of damaged structures, whereas long term reconstruction activities refer to reconstruction of multi-hazards resilient housing, relocation, provision of basic amenities etc. along with psychological, socio- economic, environmental and agronomic rehabilitation. DDMA, Panipat should initiate the reconstruction activities based on the details of damage assessment. Further, on the basis of extent and type of damage to buildings (public, private, government, etc.), district administration should initiate reconstruction measures.

8.1.1 Short Term Reconstruction Activities

I. Repair

The main purpose of repair is to bring back the architectural shape of buildings to resume their functioning at the earliest. The following actions can be taken for repair:

1. Patching up of defects such as cracks, fall of plaster, etc.

2. Repairing doors, windows, placement of glass panes.

3. Checking and repairing electric wiring.

4. Checking and repairing gas pipes, water pipes, sewerage and other plumbing services.

5. Repairing of broken walls, disturbed roofing tiles, cracked flooring and its redecoration with washing, painting etc.

6. The architectural repairs as stated above do not restore the original structural strength of cracked walls or columns and may sometimes be very illusive.

114

II. Restoration

The main purpose of restoration is to carry out structural repair to load bearing elements. It may involve cutting portions of the elements and rebuilding them or simply adding more structural material so that the original strength is restored.

1. Removal of portions of cracked masonry wall and piers and rebuilding them richer mortars. Use of non-shrinking mortar is preferred.

2. Addition of reinforcing mesh on both faces of the cracked walls holding it to the wall through spikes or bolts and covering it suitably. Several alternatives can be used.

3. Injecting proxy like material which is strong in tension into the crack in the walls, columns, beams etc.

Where structural repairs are considered necessary, these should be carried out prior to or simultaneously with the architectural repairs so that total planning of work could be done in a coordinated manner and wastage is avoided.

III. Strengthening of Existing Buildings

Strengthening is an improvement over the original strength where the evaluation of the building indicates that the strength available before the damage was insufficient and restoration alone will not be adequate in resisting future impacts. Strengthening procedure should aim at one or more of the following objectives:

1. Increasing the lantern strength in one or both directions, by reinforcement or by increasing wall area or the number of wall and columns.

2. Giving unity to the structure by providing a proper connection between its resisting elements in such a way that inertia forces generated by the vibration of the building can be transmitted to the members that have the ability to resist them.

3. Eliminating features that are sources of weakness or that produce concentrations of stresses in some members or cause abrupt changes of stiffness from one floor to the other concentration of the large masses. For example, large opening in wall without a proper peripheral reinforce.

4. Avoiding the possibility of brittle modes of failure by proper reinforcement and connection of resisting members.

8.1.2 Long Term Reconstruction Activities

Reconstruction of housing and associated infrastructure plays most important role in betterment of psychological trauma, livelihood, health, education in entire disaster recovery process. Therefore, it should consist of a comprehensive approach involving rehabilitation of housing, infrastructure, livelihood, health, education, environment, etc to ensure sustainable development of disaster affected communities. It should be taken into consideration that below mentioned multi disciplinary activities should be incorporated in

115 reconstruction process in consultation of the affected community in an institutionalised manner. This would ensure sustainable development of the community.

a) Design & Material

The reconstruction of housing requires appropriate design i.e. culturally acceptable, environmentally suitable and fulfils contextual needs of community. The material and technology used should also be context specific and in full consultation with the people so that they are able to maintain the housing after they occupy them. For the same, owner driven approach is preferred.

b) Disaster Resilient Construction

DDMA, Panipat shall constitute a committee to meet the technical requirements for disaster resilient housing in reconstruction. This committee shall have members from PWD (B&R) department, Housing Board, Development and Panchayat Department and other member’s best suited for ensuring disaster resilient housing.

The committee should ensure that disaster resilient techniques are incorporated in various schemes and development projects.

Therefore, funds under schemes can use for reconstruction Indira Awaas Yojana and other such as Housing Schemes for Scheduled Castes and Denotified Tribes.

c) Owner-Driven Approach

One of the significant approaches for disaster reconstruction is owner driven approach. This approach facilitates the owner to build the housing as per their own conveniences. The intervention of district administration is limited to provision of the funds and technical expertise for construction activity. This approach will facilitate the owners to design houses as per their needs, at preferable locations. This gives them a sense of ownership and helps them to maintain their social capital. The involvement of owner helps in reducing the cost and proper monitoring.

d) Relocation

When reconstruction also involves relocation of the community, the relocation site should be in close proximity to the existing sources of livelihood such as places of work, agricultural farms, livestock facilities, markets, etc. This will ensure favourable conditions for livelihood generation and other economic activities. DDMA, Panipat should plan and procure land for rehabilitation in consultation with the targeted community members to meet the above mentioned aspects.

121

9 Financial Arrangement for Disaster Management

9.1 Financing Arrangements

The Disaster Management Act, 2005 provides for Disaster Response Fund (DRF) and Disaster Mitigation Fund (DMF), each at the national, state and district levels. As per Section 46(I) and section 48(I) (a) of the Act, the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) and State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) were constituted in 2010 vide Letter No. 32- 3/2010-NDM-1 dated 28th September, 2010 by the Ministry of Home Affairs (Disaster Management Division). In the same notification, the Calamity Relief Fund (CRF) was converted into SDRF. Under the 13th Finance Commission (FC), this provision of funds was made. The National Disaster Mitigation Fund is to fund projects exclusively for the purpose of mitigation and is to be administered by the NDMA. The district level provision of the Disaster Response Fund and Disaster Mitigation Fund, however, has not been created.

Table 9.1: Allocation of Haryana State Disaster Response Fund in 14th Finance Commission (in Crores)

Year Fund (Rs. In Crore)

2015-16 308

2016-17 323

2017-18 339

2018-19 356

2019-20 374

Total during 2015-2020 1700

9.2 Additional Central Assistance

In the context of disaster finance post disaster reconstruction which is not covered under the NCCF, there is provision for Additional Central Assistance (ACA). Over and above the provision of the SDRF, Funding is provided from the NDR Fund in the wake of calamities of severe nature. On receipt of memorandum from the affected states, an inter Ministerial Central Team comprising of representatives of the central ministries/departments is constituted and its report after examination by the inter Ministerial Group (IMG) headed by Home Secretary is placed before High Level Committee (HLC) for their consideration and approval of funds from NDRF. It has been given to states in recent years, particularly for the

122

Gujarat earthquake of 2001, the Indian Ocean tsunami of 2004, the Kashmir earthquake of 2005 and the Kosi floods of 2008 in Bihar.

9.3 Capacity Building Fund

Effective disaster response requires trained manpower to deal with complex situations where effective and speedy handling can reduce the impact of a disaster on human life and property. It is necessary to continuously undertake measures to build capacity amongst those handling response and create awareness amongst people. 10% of SDRF received at the state level is meant for capacity building. As the district demands the state to carry out capacity building exercises at its level, the state would release the same as per the need. The activities that can be included in capacity building exercises are mentioned in Chapter 7.

9.4 Prime Minister Relief Fund

At the national level Prime Minister's National Relief Fund was created shortly after Independence with public contribution to provide immediate relief to people in distress for:

a) Immediate Financial assistance to the victims and next of kin. b) Assisting search and rescue. c) Providing health care to the victims. d) Providing shelter, food, drinking water and sanitation. e) Temporary restoration of roads, bridges, communication facility and transportation. f) Immediate restoration of education and health facilities.

9.5 Chief Minister Relief Fund

At the state level, a provision has been made to provide immediate support to the distressed people affected by the natural calamities or road, air or railways accidents, under the Chief Minister Relief Fund.

9.6 Member of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS)

a) In the context of natural & man-made calamities MPLADS works can also be implemented in the areas prone to or affected by the calamities like floods, cyclone, Tsunami, earthquake, hailstorm, avalanche, cloud burst and pest attack, landslides, tornado, drought, fire, chemical, biological and radiological hazards. Lok Sabha MPs from the non-affected areas of the State can also recommend permissible works up to a maximum of Rs.10 lakh per annum in the affected area(s) in that State. The funds would be released by the Nodal district of the MP concerned to the District Authority of the affected district. MPLADS funds may be pooled by the District Authority of the affected district for works permissible in the Guidelines. The amount so transferred from the nodal district to the natural calamity affected district may be shown in the UCs as well as MPRs as amount transferred to natural calamity affected district for rehabilitation work. The Works Completion Report, Audit Certificate and Utilization Certificate for such works and funds will be provided by the District Authority of the affected districts directly to the Ministry of Statistics and Programme

123

Implementation for overall reconciliation. No separate UC/AC/Completion Report in respect of the transferred amount would be required from the Nodal District authority in this regard while processing release of subsequent instalment of MPLADS funds. b) In the event of “Calamity of severe nature” in any part of the country, an MP can recommend works up to a maximum of Rs.50 lakh for the affected district. Whether a calamity is of severe nature or not, will be decided by the Government of India. The funds in this regard will be released by the District Authority of Nodal district of the MP concerned to the District Authority of the affected district to get permissible works done.

9.7 Convergence with Central Sponsored Schemes

a) Various employment generation schemes, especially those such as the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS) assure financial relief to needy families in drought-affected areas. They can be easily integrated with relief programmes to increase the availability of funds for relief expenditure. b) Another scheme that has been effectively dovetailed with calamity relief is the Indira Aawas Yojana (IAY), which has accomplished useful relief work in terms of providing housing to the affected families. Ten percent of the annual allocation under IAY is earmarked for this purpose. Similar allocation of five percent is also made under the Accelerated Rural Water Supply Programme (ARWSP). c) The provision has been made for the mid day meal to remain functional in the drought hit areas

9.8 Other financial sources

District authority can take assistance from UN bodies and International organization, NGOs and private donors (depending on their mandates) for relief, rehabilitation and other disaster risk reduction activities. Activities undertaken as corporate social responsibility (CSR) can be channelized for mitigation and capacity building purposes as well as the disaster response.

9.9 Risk Transfer and Insurance (A Recommendation)

Risk Transfer is a tool that enables a concerned party to share/transfer a portion of the disaster risk to another party, for a certain fee. This party can be the government itself or the microfinance institutions. The absence of disaster insurance means that the government has to bear a huge cost for compensation and rehabilitation work in post-disaster situations.

The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India have framed micro insurance regulations that allow distribution of micro insurance products in the state. The regulations cover insurance for personal accidents, health care for individual and family and assets like houses, livestock, tools and others.

In Haryana, various Ministries/Department have their insurance schemes related to health, crops, livestock, and other which can be utilize in case of disaster.

124

10 Implementation, Monitoring and Updating of DDMP

This chapter talks about the monitoring, evaluation, updating and implementation of the District Disaster Management Plan of district Panipat. The District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA), Panipat must ensure the planning, coordination, monitoring and implementation of DDMP, Panipat. The Deputy Commissioner, Panipat is the overall in charge of all the activities related to disaster management.

10.1 Implementation

The nodal authority for the task of implementation during and after disaster will be the District Disaster Management Authority, Panipat.

1. The Armed Forces are conscious of not only their constitutional responsibility in-aid to civil authority, but also, more importantly, the aspirations and the hopes of the people. Although such assistance is part of their secondary role, once the Army steps in, personnel in uniform wholeheartedly immerse themselves in the tasks in accordance with the Army’s credo - SERVICE BEFORE SELF.

2. Assistance during a disaster situation is to be provided by the Defence Services with the approval and on orders of the central government. In case, the request for aid is of an emergency nature, where government sanctions for assistance is not practicable, local military authorities, when approached for assistance should provide the same. This will be reported immediately to respective Services Headquarters (Operations Directorate) and normal channels taken recourse to, as early as possible.

Requisition Procedure

3. Any state unable to cope with a major disaster situation on its own and having deployed all its resources will request Government of India for additionexecutive action on approved requests. The chief secretary of state may initiate a direct request for emergency assistance, for example, helicopter for aerial reconnaissance, or formation of local headquarter (Command/Area Headquarters) or naval base or air force station.

Coordination

4. The responsibility for coordination of disasteal assistance. Ministry of Defence will direct respective service headquarters to take

r relief operations at various levels is as follows:

a) Inter-service Coordination at Central Level: Cabinet secretariat (Military Wing). A case for co- opting a Tri Service RRF to cater for emergency situations within India and in the region is under consideration of COSC. This JCC would be responsible for coordination and directing all rescue/relief operations to ensure synergy of efforts of all three services in management of disasters.

b) Service Headquarters

1. Military Operations Directorate (MI-6) at Army Headquarter 2. Director of Naval operations at Naval headquarters 3. Directorate of Operations (Transport and Maritime) at Air Headquarters

216

4. Command and Lower Formation Headquarters: Senior General Staff Officers (Operations) 5. State Level: Service liaison officer deputed to form a part of Joint Control Centre. 6. Local Level: Nominated Commander of troops and senior civil administrator in-charge of relief.

5. The Armed Forces may be called upon to provide the following types of assistance:

a) Infrastructure for command and control for providing relief. This would entail provision of communications and technical manpower. b) Search rescue and relief operations at disaster sites. c) Provision of medical care at the incident site and evacuation of casualties. d) Logistics support for transportation of relief materials e) Setting up and running of relief camps f) Construction and repair of roads and bridges to enable relief teams/ material to reach affected areas. g) Repair, maintenance and running of essential services especially in the initial stages of disaster relief. h) Assist in evacuation of people to safer places before and after the disaster i) Coordinate provisioning of escorts for men, material and security of installations, j) Stage management and handling of International relief, if requested by the civil administration.

Disaster Relief Operation by Headquarters Rajasthan Sub Area

6. Important aspects of policy for providing disaster relief are as under:

a) Disaster relief tasks can be undertaken by local commanders. However, HQ Rajasthan Sub Area is to be informed at the first opportunity and then flow of information to be maintained till completion of the task.

b) Effective and efficient disaster relief by the army while at task

c) Disaster relief tasks will be controlled and coordinated through Commanders of Static Headquarters while field units Commanders may move to disaster site for gaining first hand knowledge and ensuring effective assistance.

e) Adequate communication, both line and radio, will be ensured from Field Force to Command Headquarters.

217

Procedure to Requisition Army, Air Force and Naval Assistance.

7. It will be ensured by the local administration that all local resources including Home Guards, Police and others are fully utilised before assistance is sought from outside. The District Collector will assess the situation and project his requirements to the State Government. District Emergency Control Room will ensure that updated information is regularly communicated to the State Control Room, Defence Service establishments and other concerned agencies.

8. District Collector will apprise the State Government of additional requirements through State Control Room and Relief Commissioner of the State.

9. Additional assistance required for relief operations will be released to the District Collector from the state resources. If it is felt that the situation is beyond the control of state administration, the Relief commissioner will approach the Chief Secretary to get the aid from the Defence Services. Based on the final assessment, the Chief Secretary will project the requirement as under while approaching the Ministry of Defence, Government of India simultaneously for clearance of the aid:

a) Aid from Army: Head quarters Rajasthan Sub Area Commander, Jaipur and Headquarters of South Western Command

b) Aid from Air Force: Area Officer Command, Jodhpur and South Western Air Command Headquarters.

Army authorities to be contacted for disaster relief are as under:

10. Headquarters Rajasthan Sub Area (General Staff) will muster the troops and equipment and exercise operational control over them for relief operation. It will also process the case through Army channels to get the clearance of headquarter Western Command (General Staff). A Joint Operational Centre, with adequate communications to be provided by the State Government, will operate on 24 hourly basis at Headquarters Rajasthan Sub Area under the control of Colonel General Staff. State Relief Commissioner will provide a duty officer and requisite staff at the Joint Operational Centre (JOC) in addition to staff of the armed forces arid their own communications.

11. Co-Ordination Between Civil and Army: For deployment of the Army along with civil agencies on disaster relief, co-ordination should be carried out by the district civil authorities and not by the departmental heads of the line departments like Police, Health & Family Welfare, PWD and PHED etc.

12. Overall Responsibility When Navy and Air Force are also being employed: When Navy and Air Force are also involved in disaster relief along with the Army, the Army will remain overall responsible for the tasks unless specified otherwise.

218

13. Principles of Employment of Armed Forces

a) Judicious Use of Armed Forces: Assistance by Armed Forces should be requisitioned only when it becomes absolutely necessary and when the situation cannot be handled by the civil administration from within its resources. However, this does not imply that the response must be graduated. If the scale of disaster so dictates, all available resources must be requisitioned simultaneously.

b) Immediate Response: When natural and other calamities occur, the speed for rendering aid is of paramount importance. It is clear that, under such circumstances, prior sanction for assistance may not always be forthcoming. In such cases, when approached for assistance, the Army should provide the same without delay. No separate Government approval for aid rendered in connection with assistance during natural disasters and other calamities is necessary.

c) Command of Troops: Army units while operating under these circumstances continue to be under command of their own commanders, and assistance rendered is based on task basis.

d) No Menial Tasks: While assigning tasks to troops, it must be rendered that they are not employed for menial tasks e.g. troops must not be utilised for disposal of dead bothes.

e) Requisition of Aid on Task Basis: While requisitioning the Army, the assistance should not be asked for in terms of number of columns, engineers and medical teams. Instead, the- civil administration should spell out tasks, and leave it to army authorities to decide on the force level, equipment and methodologies to tackle the situation.

f) Regular Liaison and Co-ordination: In order to ensure that optimum benefit is derived out of Armed Forces employment, regular liaison and coordination needs to be done at all levels and contingency plans made and disseminated to the lowest level of civil administration and the Army.

g) Advance Planning and Training: Army formations located in areas prone to disaster must have detailed plans worked out to cater for all possible contingencies. Troops should be well briefed and kept ready to meet any contingency. Use of the Vulnerability Atlas where available must be made.

h) Integration of all Available Resources: All available resources, equipment, accommodation and medical resources with civil administration, civil firms and NGOs needs to be taken into account while evolving disaster relief plans. All the resources should be integrated to achieve optimum results. Assistance from outside agencies can be superimposed on the available resources.

i) Early De-requisitioning: Soon after the situation in a disaster-affected area has been brought under control of the civil administration, Armed Forces should be de-requisitioned. 219
