Disaster Resilient India



Natural hazards are becoming more frequent and intense globally. Though natural phenomena cannot be controlled, we do have capacities to mitigate their impact in terms of human and property losses, by timely preparation, response, preventive measures and capacity development. India has achieved some technological and institutional progress in dealing with natural disasters. More work need to be done in a systematic manner. The objective of this group is to pool together innovative ideas for practical solutions on how to bring in improvements in the whole gamut of activities for disaster management by various stakeholders including citizen.

India faces many natural hazards, including floods, cyclones, drought etc. But every hazard need not turn into a disaster. By careful planning, capacity building, early warning, community participation, procurement and pre-positioning of necessary equipment and resources, participation of civil society, assigning clear role to the private sector, involving panchayati raj institutions and urban local bodies, rigorous enforcement of techno-legal regime on land use and building regulations etc., significant reductions of losses can be brought about in such events. We have a national policy on disaster management, at http://ndmindia.nic.in/NPDM-101209.pdf
We have created a number of institutions by way of the Disaster Management Act, 2005, which may be seen athttp://ndmindia.nic.in/acts-rules/DisasterManagementAct2005.pdf

MyGov contributor on MyGov experience and the opportunity to Meet the Prime Minister on 1st July, 2015


Deeksha Katyal, New Delhi
Our country is very diverse and versatile and that practically is the essence and beauty of the country. However, having travelled the world, I came to realise that we are different from other countries in one more way . We all are more aware of the political issues of the country and are politically opinionated. Be it the “Chaupals” or the “ Boardroom discussions”, one will always see people discussing the flaws in the government

Text of Prime Minister’s ‘Mann ki Baat’ on All India Radio



मेरे प्यारे देशवासियो, नमस्कार!
इस वर्ष बारिश की अच्छी शुरुआत हुई है। हमारे किसान भाईयों, बहनों को खरीफ की बुआई करने में अवश्य मदद मिलेगी। और एक ख़ुशी की बात मेरे ध्यान में आयी है और मुझे बड़ा आनंद हुआ। हमारे देश में दलहन की और तिलहन की – pulses की और oilseeds की – बहुत कमी रहती है। ग़रीब को दलहन चाहिये, खाने के लिये सब्ज़ी वगैरह में थोड़ा तेल भी चाहिये। मेरे लिये ख़ुशी की बात है कि इस बार जो उगाई हुई है, उसमें दलहन में क़रीब-क़रीब 50 प्रतिशत वृद्धि हुई है। और तिलहन में क़रीब-क़रीब 33 प्रतिशत वृद्धि हुई है। मेरे किसान भाई-बहनों को इसलिए सविशेष बधाई देता हूँ, उनका बहुत अभिनन्दन करता हूँ।
मेरे प्यारे देशवासियो, 26 जुलाई, हमारे देश के इतिहास में कारगिल विजय दिवस के रूप में अंकित है। देश के किसान का नाता, ज़मीन से जितना है, उतना ही देश के जवान
