Disaster, whether natural or man-made, have been part of man’s evolution since time immemorial. Disaster often strikes without warnings like tsunami, cyclone, earthquake, flood, accidents, plane crash, forests fires, chemical disaster etc. which results in huge loss of lives and property. The plans and measures to mitigate and prevent the impact of the disaster are called disaster management.

The term disaster management includes all aspects of preventive and protective measures, preparedness and relief operations for mitigating the impact of the disaster. The whole process of disaster management can be divided into two phases: the first one is, Pre-disaster planning. This includes prevention, mitigation and preparedness focused on reducing the human and property losses caused by a potential hazard.

In case of the super cyclone in Odisha, 1999 we lost more than 13000 lives with huge damage to property. Whereas, in 2013, when cyclone phylum hit, which was kind of repeat strong 1999 cyclone with almost similar intensity. But the impact was entirely opposite of 1999. The number of death toll reduced to just 22. This is due to pre-disaster planning.

The second one is post-disaster activities. This includes response, recovery and reconstruction. The response phase included the search and rescue, evacuation, fulfilling the basic need of the victims, immediate medical help assistance by regional, national and International bodies. The immediate goal of the recovery phase is to bring the affected areas back to some degree of normalcy. For reducing disaster impact, in resource-scarce nations, it is important to make ex-ante risk reduction investment in development planning. Moving from risk blind to a risk-informed decision for making investment would be a prudent choice.

We cannot stop disaster but we can minimise them and arm ourselves with knowledge so that too many lives wouldn’t have to be lost.
