Making operational of your Disaster Management Plan
Government of India have initiated the Disaster Risk Management process in the year 2003 before the enactment of the Disaster Management Act 2005. With the Disaster Management Act, 2005 it was emphasised to prepare a Disaster Management Plan (DMP) at all level that may be referred at the time of emergency for necessary coordination.
It is observed that most of the SDMAs and DDMAs has developed its plan but they are bulky 300-400 pages document and hardly referred during any disaster. No DMP has been used (tested) in covid 19 response and still, we are not testing it in recovery. These plans are not updated regularly and made operational.
These DM plans are made to support authorities for effective coordination with all the stakeholders during disasters. Translate plans on the ground and practice (Mock drill) these plan before the disaster. Without robust DM plan because of local hazard, we cannot activate the Incident Response System.
Thus in view of frequent termors and prvlent risk some of the immediate actions proposed are as follow:
1. Development of operational Disaster Management Plan at District level and below for all the units like Schools, college, University, Cinema hall, hospitals, hotels, office complexes, societies through a qualified Disaster Manager(DM). DM should sign the document and own its responsibility.
2. Translation of these plan at the ground through orientation, training and mock drills. Updation of DM plans every year/ every disaster.
3. Identify train and keep active at least 1% populations as volunteers.
4. A copy of DM plan below district must be submitted at DDMA.
5. DDMA should share all DM plans among all Emergency Support Functioneries (ESFs)
6. Identify Old and weak building through destruction method incentives must be added to the reconstruction of the earthquake-resistant building. New construction must follow building bylaws
7. Develop the capacity to start a collapsed hospital within 24 hr Or built a hospital within 24 hrs.
