We live in a fast changing global environment where peril & risk to human society is abound. Disaster has the ability to maim & kill people. It destroys property & the environment & continue with lasting determinal consequences. The enormity of the disaster problem today & in the forseable future calls for a more proactive approach that ensure effective disaster risk reduction at all levels towards sustainable development. Nayagrh district is prone to a number of disasters, which includes flood, cyclone, drought & fire etc. Climate change is further aggraviating the situation, as future disasters are likely to be more intensed. In order to manage the disaster risk, there is a need for systematic, long term & coordinated Disaster Management Plan. It gives me immense pleasure to introduce the revised Disaster Management Plan of Nayagarh for the year 2017. I learned that the DM plan has been prepared after a thorough analysis of the district’s vulnerability towards various hazards, risk of getting exposure, strength to deal with and weaknesses to be bridged. The plan will indeed strengthen the District Disaster Management Authority & help the administration to lay intense stress on Preparedness, Capacity building & Mitigating the impact to prevent loss of life and property as & when required. The above plan incorporates different requirements for preparedness, response, capacity building, rescue and relief operation in the District. The Disaster Management Plan has been complied after a series of meetings & consultations with different stakeholders acquainted with the ground realities of the district. I would like to extend my wishes to all those rendered their sincere efforts & a special thanks to OSDMA for the technical support in preparing the DM plan.

India has the largest number of people exposed to natural hazards including severe storms and flooding. The country‟s vulnerability to severe weather during monsoon season, its large agricultural sector and its enormous population put it at the top of the list. 1.02 billion People in India, or 82% of the population, are exposed to natural hazards, compared with 677 million, or 50% of the population, in China. Strong economic growth hasn‟t managed to raise India to the level of other large economies such as the U.S and China in disaster preparedness, putting future growth at risk. In order that the strong economic-growth projections are realized, financial and technical resources are required to build resilience to natural hazards. India as a “high-risk” country, at 49th in vulnerability, a measure of the capacity of its private and public sectors to prepare for, respond to and recover from a natural hazard. India has made some advances in the past 10 years, the report added. It singled out the government‟s approach to Cyclone Phailin in October 2013. It said improved communication between forecasters, government agencies and the public held the death toll to 100 people, compared with at least 10,000 from a similar-size storm in a similar location in 1999. Odisha has a history of recurring natural disasters. While the coastal districts of Odisha are exposed to floods and cyclones, western Odisha is prone to acute droughts; a large section of the State is also prone to earthquakes. In addition, the State is also affected by disasters like heat waves, epidemics, forest fire, road accidents etc. The history of disasters substantiates the fact that about 80% of the State is prone to one or more forms of natural disasters. Under the DM Act 2005, it is mandatory on the part of District Disaster Management Authority (DDMA) to adopt a continuous and integrated process of planning, organizing, coordinating and implementing measures which are necessary and expedient for prevention as well as mitigation of disasters. These processes are to be incorporated in the developmental plans of the different departments and preparedness to meet the disaster and relief, rescue and rehabilitation thereafter, so as to minimize the loss to be suffered by the communities and are to be documented so that it is handy and accessible to the general public. Section 31 of Disaster Management Act 2005 (DM Act) makes it mandatory to have a disaster management plan for every district. DDMP shall include Hazard Vulnerability Capacity and Risk Assessment (HVCRA), prevention, mitigation, preparedness measures, response plan and procedures. 1.1 Aims and Objectives of the DDMP: i. To identify the areas vulnerable to major types of the hazards in the district. ii. To adopt proactive measures & engage in activities at district level by all the govt. departments to prevent disaster and mitigate its effects. iii. To define and assign the different tasks and responsibilities to stakeholders during the pre-disaster and post-disaster phases of the disaster. iv. To make endeavours towards creating awareness among the people about disasters and its consequences and to capacitate & prepare them in advance to face such situations and to ensure their participation in the disaster mitigation plans.
