A Tool to natural disaster prevention, preparedness

and mitigation for housing and related infrastructure

Building Materials & Technology Promotion Council

Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs
Government of India
 With its vast territory, large population and diverse geo-climatic
conditions, Indian sub-continent is exposed to natural catastrophes
historically. Natural hazards which can be broadly classified into
geophysical hazards (earthquakes, landslides & tsunamis), hydrologi-
cal hazards (floods), meteorological hazards (cyclones, storm surges),
and climatological hazards (thunderstorms) are common occurrence
in India. While the vulnerability varies from region to region, a large
part of the country is exposed to such natural hazards which often turn
into disasters causing significant disruption of socio-economic life of
communities leading to loss of life and property. Concerned with the
impact of natural disasters in the background of the International &
National resolutions, Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and re-
alising that the preparedness and prevention are integral components
of the development process, the Governments at the Central and State
levels are gradually evolving strategies, policies and programmes for
natural disaster mitigations and prevention. In the process cutting edge
technologies are being introduced in fields like forecasting, satellite
Prelude and remote sensing, computerised systems of vulnerability and risk
assessment and other technologies for warning and monitoring. Also,
there have been concerted efforts made by Ministry of Housing & Urban
The Government of India has Affairs, Government of India to bring paradigm shift in its approach
taken several initiatives at policy towards disaster risk reduction. The traditional 3 Rs (Rescue, Relief &
level for strengthening disaster Restoration) are now replaced by 3 Ps (Prevention, Preparedness &
reduction strategies recognizing Proofing) resulting in pro-active pre-disaster preventive measures.

 Hazard Vulnerability in India
Indian Subcontinent: among the world’s most disaster prone areas
• 57% of land vulnerable to Earthquakes
• 18% of land vulnerable to High Wind Velocity (55 & 50 m/s)
• 7% of land vulnerable to Floods
• 12.6% of land vulnerable to landslides in hilly regions of 18 states
> 1 million houses damaged annually + human, social, other losses
Earthquakes
• 11.3% land is liable to severe earthquakes (MSK IX or more)
• 14.4% land is liable to MSK VIII (similar to Latur / Uttarkashi)
• 31.1% land is liable to MSK VII (similar to Jabalpur quake)
Biggest quakes in: Andamans, Kuchchh, Himachal, Kashmir, North Bihar and the
North East regions.
Wind and Cyclones

Hazard
• 1891-2017: 273 cyclones (106 severe) in the East Coast
• 30 cyclones in West Coast (16 severe) in the same period
• In 19 severe cyclonic storms, death toll > 10,000 lives
Vulnerability In 21 cyclones in Bay of Bengal (India+Bangladesh), 1.25 million lives have
been lost
Risk Floods
• Floods in the Indo-Gangetic-Brahmaputra plains are an annual feature. On
an average, a few hundred lives are lost.
• Millions are rendered homeless.
• Lakhs of hectares of crops are damaged every year.
Landslides
• 12.6 percent of landmass (~0.42 million km2) in the mountainous/ hill
regions are landslide prone spreading mainly over 18 States.

 A Qualitative Shift in India’s Strategy
The Government recognised the need for a shift from a post disaster reactive approach
to a pre-disaster pro-active approach:
• Preparedness
• Mitigation
• Prevention
This will minimise the damage, losses and trauma to the people on one hand and reduce
the costs of relief, rehabilitation and reconstruction.
The Disaster Management Act 2005 – enacted on 23rd December, 2005 lays down
institutional and coordination mechanism at all level and provides for establishment
of Disaster Mitigation Fund and Disaster Response Fund at national, state and district
level.

This shift in strategy is feasible because of:

• Advancements in Science and Technology
• Effective implementation has shown decline in casualties.
A • Advancements in forecasting technologies and warning systems
• Government policy to strengthen Hazard Mapping, R&D and Standardisation
Qualitative • Enlargement and reinforcement of disaster prevention systems, equipment and
facilities.
Shift in Strategy
Goals of Disaster Prevention

Objectives:
The objectives of India’s National Policy for natural disaster reduction is to reduce:
• loss of lives
• property damage
• economic disruption

Goals:
• Creating Public Awareness about Safety from Disasters
• Amending/Enacting legislation for safety from Hazards
• Planning development areas with safety from Hazards
• Protection of habitations from adverse hazard impacts
• Constructing new buildings safe from Hazards
• Retrofitting existing buildings for improving hazard resistance

Stakeholders in the Legislation Needed

• Land use zoning in hazard prone areas and establishing techno-legal regimes
• Policy makers • Incorporation of safety requirements in building bye-laws of local bodies/panchayats –
• Urban Managers applicable to new buildings and extensions of old buildings. Empowering local bodies
• Decision Makers to exercise control
• Legislation to upgrade hazard resistance of critical buildings for use and safety of

 Vulnerability Atlas of India - 1997
BMTPC since its inception is committed towards promoting disaster mitigation measures
through preparedness and brought out its first Vulnerability Atlas of India in
1997 under the auspices of Expert Group set up by the erstwhile
Ministry of Urban Development. It was first of its kind tool for the
Disaster Management authorities, agencies, related stake holders
and citizens of India for identifying the level of damage risk (degree
of vulnerability) of housing stock with respect to earthquakes, floods
and cyclones, in any part of the country.

This Atlas has since served as a useful tool for policy planning on
natural disaster prevention and preparedness specially for hosing
and related infrastructure. The IDNDR also adjudged the project with
High Demonstrative Value.

GSI
• Availability of climatological
data for thunderstorms in terms
of number of thunderstorms at a
station from 1981 to 2010 from
IMD

To examine the above issues closely

the Ministry of Housing & Urban
Affairs constituted the Peer Group
with representation from different
concerned agencies namely GSI, IMD,
IIT Roorkee, NRSC, CSIR-SERC with
BMTPC as Secretariat.

been included for India and States/UTs of Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Himachal
Pradesh, Maharashtra, Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Tripura, West Bengal, Goa and
North Eastern States including Sikkim. The Landslide Incidence Maps also provides Annual
State Rainfall Normals (mm) in the base layer, as provided by IMD.

Thunderstorm Incidence Map

Based on the climatological data for thunderstorms from IMD in terms of number of
thunderstorms at a station from 1981 to 2010, the Landslide Incidence Map of India has
been included in the Atlas.

Cyclone Occurrence Map (Coastal India)

The Cyclone Occurrence Map of India has been developed based on maximum/estimated
3-minute average Maximum Sustained Wind (MSW) in knots (1 knot = 0.5144 m/s) that
affected coastal districts of India during 1891-2008, as per data provided by IMD.
