Disaster ppreparedeness on the part of public should be incresed by educatind and training them on various disasters.This can be effectively done with the help and active participation of Nation Disaster Management Squad and Weather forecasting Department of India.

Greetings and wishes to all.Let me start with a simple note of mentioning PREPARDNESS for a great country like ours.Technology and science is well advanced but citizen level is weak and low.We people forget any disaster very quickly and hence are caught unawares and blame the GOVT .So a first hand education along with prepardness kit in all aspects to be made mandatory in all homes.

INDIA SHOULD CREATE A CRISIS MAPPING PORTAL BASED ON USHAHIDI PLATFORM. IT IS THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MODE OF CRISIS MANAGEMENT OF MODERN DAY. IT WAS A HUGE SUCCESS DURING HAITY EARTHQUAKES RECENTLY. http://www.ushahidi.com/2012/01/12/haiti-and-the-power-of-crowdsourcing/ .IT IS VERY EASY FOR MYGOV TO CREATE ONE

FIRST Just like having a Police & Fire station EVERYtime Shamelessly calling on Para-Military. We need a SPECIAL Army / Volunteers JUST for rescues. Every Govt building should have the Building Plan with the Contractor's names much outside but inside the walls. SO that it is easier for engineers & Rescue workers later. The debris should not reach this Plan Approval board. The Walls must be w/ calculated Feets away to avoid Wall collapse during slide. If Govt Buildings do it. Pvt Co.s'd follow.

I wish the Insurance companies & its collaborations Dolls out annually an article such as an inflatable Life-guard, a rubber boat or something that goes with it as Private firms reassure its investors of its Market situation. Perhaps a water-tight Lunch-bag or Unbreakable safety Medical kit. What ever little those Private sector Health bankers could be. Like an annual EMI for customers. Articles / Particulars that could supplement & Assist during Floods or Collapse. Than of Diaries & Calendars.

Step 1: Educate: Treat disaster as a reality. Make lessons on dealing with disaster mandatory in each school.
Step 2: Clarify: Similar numbers like 100, have one dedicated number to call in case of a disaster. A qualified person on the other side of phone can decided whether to send an fire brigade, ambulance or gas agency
3. Link all CCTV cameras installed outside residential building to police control room. Use tech to interpret data and detect disaster early.
