MULTI HAZARD DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN
2.1. Introduction:-
Due to unique geo-climatic conditions prevailing in the Indian land mass and its
geophysical nature, India has been witnessing different types of devastating natural disasters like floods,
cyclones, earthquakes, landslides, droughts, tsunami etc at regular intervals, causing huge loss of life,
property and damage to the environment and hence, considered as one of the most disaster prone
country in the world. During the last four to five decades, vulnerability to disasters, both natural as well
as man-made, have been increasing due to rising population, haphazard urbanization, structural
development in high risk zones, environmental degradation, climate change etc.
Tragically, disasters continue to affect mostly the poorest and least developed. While
countries with a low human development index reported the fewest natural disasters during the last
decade (compared to countries with a high human development index), the number of deaths for each
disaster is by far the highest in these countries. An average of 555 people died per disaster in countries
with a low human development index, compared to 133, where there is a medium human development
index, and 18 in countries with a high human development index (like US, Japan, Europe and so on).
Since its earliest days, communication has played an important role in Disaster
Management (DM), in providing information to all the stakeholders, particularly in rescue and
emergency relief operations to the disaster affected victims. Perhaps, no more graphic example can be
found than in the events surrounding the sinking of the ―Titanic‖ on April 14th, 1912, when Radio
communication technology was instrumental in soliciting aid from the nearby vessels ―California‖ and
―Carpathia‖ which were able to proceed to the rescue of the people.
Advances in Information a n d Communication Technology (ICT) have made it possible
to not only forecast some of the disasters but also to have made available means, for quick and effective
rescue and relief operation, thereby minimizing the deadly impacts of some of the worst disasters.
Tripura has been witnessing different types of devastating disaster like earthquakes,
floods, cyclones, dry spell & man made disaster. In the decade of 1980 extremist violence had collapsed
the development of our state and huge numbers of people had lost their life & property. Now the
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 4
situation is under control and the people are living safely in remote areas also. Socio economic
development is increasing day by day. Health, Sanitation, Medical care, Drinking Water, Education is
going to reach every villages of Tripura.
Unakoti District will come into effect having a geographical area of 686.97 Sq. Km. and
is divided into 2 (Two) Sub-Divisions namely Kailashahar & Kumarghat. The Whole Unakoti District
comprises of 2 (two) Revenue Circles, 12(twelve) nos. of TK and 78 Revenue villages and population of
2, 77,335 (as per provisional census 2011). For the purpose of development activities in rural areas there
are 4 (Four) Rural Development Blocks namely Gournagar, Chandipur, Kumarghat & Pecharthal are
available in Unakoti District. Besides there are 2 (two) Municipal council namely Kailashahar &
Kumarghat cater the development activities and civic provision in urban areas of the Unakoti District.
The Hill range Unakoti is famous for locating less than 1 (one) crore engraved picture of
Gods and Goddess on the stone, which is a famous tourist spot recognized by ASI.The main river Manu
comes from the Longtharai Valley Sub-Division and flows towards North and goes to Bangladesh
through the Kailashahar Sub-Division. The river Deo that subsequently meets the Manu river at
Kumarghat area is also to be noted.It is fact that before 30 / 40 years back the river Deo & Manu used to
play vital role for transportation of different goods by locally made boats from one place to the other
business centers.
Hot and humid summer with sufficient rainfall between Jun and October and dry winter
characterize the climate of Unakoti District. Rainfall usually high in the District compared to other
District in the State. Temperature is generally moderate and mild variations are noticed in various
places. The Unakoti District is situated in intense seismic region, which is placed in the category of
Zone-‗V‘.
2.2 Why DDMP?
Vulnerability of the Unakoti District towards disasters, both natural and man- made is
widely recognized. The district is vulnerable towards natural disasters like; Earthquakes, floods, storms,
droughts and manmade disasters like fire, riot etc. Losses caused by disasters continue to mount year
after year. The need for an effective disaster management strategy to lessen disaster impact is being felt
in many quarters and also for strengthening of organizational structure for disaster management. Along
with, regular updating of Codes/Manual/Disaster Plans on the basis of experience gained and
technological developments should be done.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 5
It was felt that the generic categorization of disasters would help in preparing disaster
management plans. This generic categorization of disasters is in no way intended to disturb handling of
specific disasters by various departments.
Precise actions, procedures and responsibilities have to be laid down well in advance in
order to ensure timely response in case of any disaster. Therefore, a mechanism that takes into account
multiple hazards and basic preparedness has to be articulated in the form of Incident Response Team,
Quick Response Teams, Quick Assessment Teams, Reporting Procedures, Checklist and Handbooks.
The mechanism also lays down crucial parameters, requirements and organizational composition of
Emergency Operations Centers and Incident Response Systems.
2.3 Objective:
The objectives behind the preparation of the District Disaster Management Plan is-
To mitigate impact of natural and man-made disasters through preparedness at District,
Circle, Block, Gram Panchayat and Village level.
To provide effective support and resources to all the concerned individuals, groups and
departments during disaster.
To identify all common elements of response.
To assist the line departments, block administration, communities in developing compatible
skills for disaster preparedness and management.
To disseminate factual information in a timely, accurate and tactful manner while
maintaining necessary confidentiality.
To develop immediate and long-term support plans for vulnerable people in/during
disasters.
To create awareness among the people about hazard occurrence and increase their
participation in preparedness, prevention, development, relief, rehabilitation and
reconstruction process.
To have response system in place to face any eventuality.
To affect or elicit the least possible disruption to the normal life process when dealing with
individuals in disaster.
To identify the available resources including manpower, material, equipment and adequate
delegation of financial and administrative powers for successful operation of the DDMP.
To ensure active participation by the government administration, communities, NGOs,
CBOs and volunteers at all levels making optimal utilization of human and material
resources at the time of disaster.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 6
2.4 Vision:-
Section 31 of the DM Act., 2005 provides that there shall be a plan for Disaster
Management for every District which shall be prepared by the District authority after consultation with
the local authorities and having regard to the National and State Plan and shall include areas in the
District Vulnerable to forms of Disasters, measures to be taken, prevention & mitigation of disasters by
the Departments of the Govt. at the District Level and local authorities in the district. The capacity
building and preparedness measures required to be taken by the Department of the Govt. at the district
and local authorities to respond to any threatening disaster situation or disaster should be taken in to
account.
On the basis of extent information and knowledge the plan has formulated and will be
updated regularly adding fresh inputs on an ongoing basis. Pending detailed micro-level vulnerability
analysis and assessment of risk the plan has been prepared incorporating available information from
different sources and vulnerability profile including information of various areas of the district as a
whole.

CHAPTER-4
RISK ASSESSMENT AND VULNERABILITY ANALYSIS
4.1. Disaster Probability:
Flood:
During rainy seasons, all the major rivers in the district carry gallons of water pose potential
threat of flood. The heavy rainfall in the catchment areas of the district causes the rising of
water level above the danger level.
Storm:
Unakoti district is highly vulnerable to storm. Storms generally bring in their trail heavy
rains with hailstones causing damage to property and crops.
Fire Accidents:
Fire accidents present a serious problem to the houses and the market places in Unakoti
district. This is mostly due to the peculiar housing pattern adopted in the villages. These
houses have generally mud-built walls with thatched roofs made out of timber, bamboo and
straw. Any occurrence of fire destroys houses and properties thereby causing serious
damage to the affected people.
Earth Quake:
The entire North-East region is in the seismic zone V, i.e. probability of happening of
earthquake more than 8 magnitudes in Richter scale. Though Unakoti district has not
experienced any major earthquake in recent past causing damage to lives or infrastructure,
the possibility can never be ruled out as it can happen any time.

7.4. Livestock Management during Disasters:-
The following preparations are essential for management of animals during disasters:
i) Development of flood, cyclone and other natural calamity warning systems. In Principle, an
EWS would make it possible to avoid many adverse economic and human costs that arise due to the
destruction of livestock resources every year. Reliable forecasting would also allow state governments to
undertake more efficient relief interventions. Other tools that may provide early warning signals include
field monitoring and remote sensing systems. Ideally, field monitoring should provide monthly flows of
information on the availability of water and the general state of crop and livestock production. Useful
production parameters include marketing trends, particularly the balance of trade between livestock and
grain foods, and anthropomorphic measures such as the mean arm circumference of children under five.
Remote sensing, which relies on imagery satellites, is a valuable tool when used in conjunction with
field monitoring. These tools will be integrated to develop an effective EWS.
ii) Establishment of fodder banks at the village level for storage of fodder in the form of bales
and blocks for feeding animals during drought and other natural calamities is an integral part of disaster
mitigation. The fodder bank must be established at a secure highland that may not be easily affected by a
natural calamity. A few fodder banks will be developed as closed facilities to prevent them from getting
contaminated.
iii) Supply of feed ingredients at nominal cost from the Food Corporation of India: Most grain
rations for cattle and sheep provide enough protein to maintain a satisfactory 10–12% level. But when
we feed livestock in emergency situations—mostly low-protein materials such as ground ear corn, grain
straws or grass straws—a protein supplement is needed. Adequate reserves as per the availability of
resources will be developed.
iv) Conservation of monsoon grasses in the form of hay and silage during the flush season
greatly help in supplementing shortage of fodder during emergencies such as drought or flood. The
objective is to preserve forage resources for the dry season (hot regions) or for winter (temperate
regions) in order to ensure continuous, regular feed for livestock. It is an important disaster mitigation
strategy.
v) Development of existing degraded grazing lands by perennial grasses and legumes. As a
majority of the population in drought prone areas depends on land-based activities like crop farming and
animal husbandry, the core task for development will be to promote rational utilization of land for
supplementing fodder requirements during emergencies.
vi) Provision of free movement of animals for grazing from affected states to the unaffected
reduces pressure on pastures and also facilitates early rehabilitation of the affected livestock. In
emergency situations, the presence of livestock can exacerbate conflict when refugees with animals
compete for reduced forage and water resources. To prevent this, what is technically known as
emergency destocking programme, will be instituted. This programme provides for the intentional
removal of animals from a region before they die.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 42
viii) Treatment and vaccination of animals against contagious diseases in flood affected areas.
Routine prophylactic vaccination of livestock in flood-prone area significantly reduces the severity of
the post-disaster outbreak of any endemic diseases. Since animals affected by floods are prone to pick
up infectious diseases, vaccination and veterinary camps will be set up to treat and immunize livestock
against various diseases. The creation of a community based animal health care delivery system may
significantly reduce livestock deaths in a region. Vaccination programmers‘ and primary animal health
care will prevent some of the drastic losses associated with the onset of rains.
ix) Provision of compensation on account of distressed sale of animals and economic losses to
farmers due to death or injury of livestock. Compensation for animals and other property affected by an
emergency due to an animal disease outbreak is an integral part of the strategy for eradicating or
controlling disease. A legislation that provides the power to destroy livestock and property, and
ultimately determines the process, by which compensation is to be paid, will be enacted and
implemented by the respective legislative bodies.
7.4.1. Disposal of Dead Animals during Disasters:-
Carcasses can be a hazard to the environment and other animals and require special
handling. To minimize soil or water contamination and the risk of spreading diseases, guidelines for
proper carcass disposal must be followed. Disposal options include calling a licensed collector to dead
stock or burial in an approved animal disposal pit. Alternatives include incineration and burial. Burial
avoids air contamination associated with burning carcasses and is economical. Since the heat in the pile
eliminates most pathogens, burial can also improve the insecurity of farming operations. A plan for the
disposal of dead livestock should address selection of the most appropriate site in each village or cluster
of villages for burial or burning, disinfection process, provision of costs for burial or burning, material
and equipment required for burial and burning, etc.
7.4.2. Strategy for Emergency Management:-
i) There will be efforts to prevent an emergency, reduce the likelihood of its occurrence or
reduce the damaging effects of unavoidable hazards long before an emergency occurs. Flood and fire
insurance policies for farms are important mitigation activities.
ii) It is pertinent to develop plans regarding what to do, where to go, or who to call for help
before an event occurs—actions that will improve chances of successfully dealing with an emergency.
These include preparedness measures such as posting emergency telephone numbers, holding disaster
drills and installing warning systems.
iii) Efforts need to be made to respond safely to an emergency by converting preparedness
plans into action. Seeking shelter from a cyclone or moving out of the buildings during an earthquake
are both response activities. The GoI Action Plan for management of the outbreak of bird flu is an
example of the effective handling of an outbreak of livestock disaster in the country.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 43
iv) A comprehensive strategy for recovery actions to bring back normalcy, including assistance
for repairs and other losses will be identified in DM plans. Safety is an important aspect of a response
plan and every action plan will enumerate different responding activities to be undertaken for the
effective management of livestock disasters. The response plan will be rehearsed to remove the plausible
anomalies in actions.

CHAPTER-8
REHABILITATION AND RECONSTRUCTION PLAN
Rehabilitation and reconstruction comes under recovery phase immediately after relief and
rescue operation of the disaster. This post disaster phase continues until the life of the affected people
comes to normal. This phase mainly covers damage assessment, disposal of debris, disbursement of
assistance for houses, formulation of assistance packages, monitoring and review, cases of non-
starters, rejected cases, non-occupancy of houses, relocation, town planning and development plans,
awareness and capacity building, housing insurance, grievance redressed and social rehabilitation etc.
8.1 Post Disaster Reconstruction and Rehabilitation
Post disaster reconstruction and rehabilitation should pay attention to the following
activities for speedy recovery in disaster hit areas. The contribution of both government as well as
affected people is significant to deal with all the issues properly.
Damage assessment
Disposal of debris
Disbursement of assistance for houses
Formulation of assistance packages
Monitoring and review
Cases of non-starters, rejected cases, non-occupancy of houses
relocation
Town planning and development plans
Reconstruction as Housing Replacement Policy
Awareness and capacity building
Housing insurance
Grievance redressal
8.2 Administrative Relief
The district is the primary level with requisite resources to respond to any natural
calamity, through the issue of essential commodities, group assistance to the affected people, damage
assessment and administrating appropriate rehabilitation and restoration measures.
The district level relief committee consisting of official and non-official members
including the local legislators and the members of parliament review the relief measures. Unakoti district
is sub-divided into2 sub-divisions i.e. Kailashahar, Kumarghat. The head of sub-division is called the
Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) while development officer (BDO). When a disaster is apprehended,
the entire machinery of the district, including the officers of technical and other departments, swings into
action maintains almost continuous contact with each village in the disaster threatened area.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 45
8.3 Reconstruction of House Damaged / Destroyed:-
House should be reconstructed in the disaster hit areas according to the following
instructions:
Owner Driven Reconstruction
Public Private Partnership Programme (PPPP)
Under the PPPP the house are reconstructed by the NGOs for the beneficiaries to be
registered in the joint names of the husband and wife.
All the houses should be insured.
Owner Driven Reconstruction
Financial, technical and material assistance provided by the Government.
The designs for seismic reconstruction of houses provided by the Government.
The material assistance provided through material banks at subsidized rates.
Design of 20 model houses provided to the public to choose from with an option to have
one‘s own design.
8.4 Military Assistance:-
If the district administration feels that the situation is beyond its control then immediate
military assistance could be sought for carrying out the relief operation.
8.5 Medical Care:-
Specialized Medical Care may be required to help the affected population preventive
medicine may have to be taken to prevent outbreak of diseases.
8.6 Epidemics:-
In the relief camps set up for the affected population, there is a livelihood of epidemics from
a number of sources. The strategy should be to subdue such sources and immunize the
population against them. The public health centres, health departments can practice
vaccination drives, public awareness to drink boiled water, use chlorine tablets to purify the
water sources.
8.7 Crops Disposal:-
Disposal of dead bodies is to be carried out as a part of the operation to prevent outbreak of
epidemics. Minimum official requirements should be maintained as it is a very sensitive
issue. The following points may be considered by the concerned authorities at the time of
corpse disposal:-
Mass photographs of corpses,
Consent of the relatives or hand over them
Make panchnama of concerned localities.
District Disaster Management Plan-2016-17. Page 46
8.8. Outside Assistance:-
During disaster situation, considerable relief flows in from outside, thus there is an
immediate need to co-ordinate the relief flows so that the maximum coverage is achieved
and there is no duplication of work in the same area.
8.9. Special Relief:-
Along with compensation packages, essential items may have to be distributed to the
affected population to provide for temporary sustenance.
8.10. Information:-
Information flow and review is essential part of the relief exercise. Constant monitoring is
required to assess the extent of damage, which forms the basis of further relief to the
affected areas.
8.11. Social Rehabilitation:-
Disabled persons

CHAPTER- 9
FLOOD MANAGEMENT PLAN 2016-17
9.1. FLOOD MANAGEMENT:-
1. Floods are recurrent annual phenomena and the Flood Management Plan should ideally
be built to minimize losses of all types, primarily loss of human lives and secondarily, loss to property
like livestock, crops, community assets, personal belongings etc. When disaster strikes, automatically,
the District Administration has traditionally responded in all parts of the Country is an exemplary
manner. However, if a good Disaster Management Plan is in place , every step taken in time of disaster
will yield magnified resolution in the form of more effective rescue and relief operation. Our Plan
should ensure that when a flood strikes there is standardized POA and rehearse procedure set in place so
that precious time is not lost due to confusion regarding who is to do what.
2. Unakoti District is bestowed with a high average annual rainfall of 2700
mm(approximately) with average number of rainy days at 92 per year. Normally, rain arrives in late
April and continuous up to October. However, the intensity of rainfall increases during the month of
JUNE – September. Higher rainfall occurring during this period causes flood in low laying areas and
erosion of land. The spatial distribution of rainfall under Unakoti District is as follows.
