In this article I have provided a disaster management and also we will talking about the importance of disaster management as well as how country prepared for the upcoming disaster. The disaster management act 23decemeber 2005.It was passed by the RAJYA SABHA Disaster management in India refers to the conservation of lives and property during natural or man-made disasters. Disaster management plans are multi-layered and are planned to address issues such as floods, hurricanes, fires, mass failure of utilities, rapid spread of disease and droughts .India is especially vulnerable to natural disasters because of its unique geo-climatic condition, having recurrent floods, droughts, cyclones, earthquakes, and landslides. India is a very large country, different regions are vulnerable to different natural disaster .

FOR EXAMPLE, during rainy season the peninsular regions of South India is mostly affected by cyclones and states of West India experience severe drought during summer, recent ‘AMPHAN' cyclone is the biggest natural calamity to ever hit wet Bengal in India , and also cyclone FANI is the biggest hit India, millions were in it’s path in India and Bangladesh.

Disaster management always should have long term planning and everything should be in place well before the occurrence of disaster. Organisation such as the National Disaster Management Authority are the ones that take necessary action during and before disasters . In fact, there is nothing that we as humans can do during a disaster , like the one that’s are the living in covid19 .This Disaster planning beforehand will reduce the lose to life and properly. But disaster management polices are not framed to just prevent the loss, but how to overcome losses. In the case of floods or earthquake , many families and in certain cases, entire communities will be displaced and their basic livelihood will be affected . The Government should provide employment opportunities to the affected people along with health and monetary benefits to the families of the lost one. A good disaster management policy will have an efficient long term plan to prevent the disaster from happening in the first place. Disaster management plan is important in the sense that the trained personnel can carry out timely rescue missions as soon as there is a disaster in order to limit the amount of lives lost and degree of injuries sustained. They team also help to provide relief measures to the disaster victims such as shutter, food, clothes and medicines.

Disaster are sudden and disaster management is a difficult task . Medical personal can be involved in community capacity building starting from the formative years. A disaster is any occurrence that causes damage , ecological disturb, loss of human life . We had to stay away from his thing beforehand and keep the same distance in the area In which earthquake are separated.
