CHAPTER-I

Introduction

In the present day every individual is vulnerable and is threatened by the natural disasters,

which is growing in number and variety. In other words, every individual is required to be

aware and also have minimum capacity to counter such crisis. This implies that entire

population of a village forms a community and has to be involved in its safeguard in the

event of a crisis which has potential to affect all or majority of them. This plan is prepared

with the participation of local villagers including the village's heads.

Purpose of the Plan The first response to the natural hazards comes from immediate neighbourhood and spreads

into the community, while the government and other organization take some time to reach

them. The plan takes into account the status of the hazard history, vulnerability, infrastructure

availability, institutional capacities, Human Resources and other related information

pertaining to Disaster Response and Mitigation. In accordance, it provides the procedures that

may be implemented with immediate effect and subsequently upgrade as more resources

become available and capacities of the stakeholders gets built up. The immediate purpose is

therefore to bring about the greater role clarity and coordination so that it gives the outline for

mitigating future disasters. The plan would cover the operational context, preparedness,

response and mitigation procedures.

Objectives:

1. To reduce the loss of human lives, animal lives and properties during any disaster2. To ensure the availability of food, drinking water and sanitation during any disaster.3. To enhance the capacity of the villager to face any kind of disaster.4. To link up the various development schemes with disaster management in the village.5. To have a role clarity during different disaster and during response, relief & recovery.6. To protect and conserve the wetlands, available open spaces, soil health, VGR/PGR

etc.

HISTORY OF THE VILLAGE:

The Dalok village is located under Agia Gaon Panchayat of Balijana revenue circle under Balijana Dev. Block. It is about 13 K.M away from District Headquarter. The village is constituted by three habitations called Dalok, Haldibari and Bokdo. Composition of the village consists of Hindu (Rajbongshi) and Christian (Garo) tribes. According to the community there is no written history of the village. But there is a story which is prevalent and being shared by the villagers that earlier people used to live in scattered form on the foothills of Ajagar Pahar located in the southern part of the village. Once Mughal Army General Mirjumllah crossed the river Brahmaputra and attacked on the southern part , which resulted into the people to unite against the Mughal army (Scattered : One of the Assamese meaning of scattered is Dale Dale ) in order to prevent the entry of Mughal Army in their village. People believed that the word “Dalok” thus emerged out. The river Jinjiram flows in parallel direction of Brahmaputra across the village from east to west. Agriculture, Pig Farming, Rubber Plantation, daily wage earner, are the main source of incomes of the villager and a very few people are there with govt. job holder.

HAZARD, VULNERABILITY AND CAPACITY SCENARIO OF THE VILLAGE

HAZARD:

During the community consultation and PRA exercise, people identified the following hazards for the village:

A. Flash Flood : The village has encountered three major flash floods in the last 10-30 years.

Flash Flood 1990: In the month of July. It damaged crop field and inundated village roads and house premises. About five nos. of residential houses were washed away by Flash Flood water.

Flash flood 2004: In the month of October. About 20 nos. of houses were completely washed away by flood water and about 12 nos. of cattles died. Standing Rabi crops were completely damaged. Sand deposition in the paddy field went up to 8-12 inch.

Flash flood 2014: In the month of September. According to the community, the water current was much intense than previous incident in 2004. About 25 nos. of residential houses were completely washed away by flood water. The wooden bridge was completely submerged. The approach road to the bridge in the northern part was eroded and the communication was completely disrupted. Boats were deployed for rescue and supply of relief materials. Standing Sali paddy was damaged. Growing Brinjal plants were damaged. People said that as the incident occurred during day time, they were able to take shelter in Lali Pahar, Bishnu Mandir for which no casualty were observed.

B. Erosion: After the flash flood erosion becomes a big problem of the Dalok village. In many parts of river Jinjiram the river bank eroded heavily leading to threatening conditions to the adjoining households which were situated near to the river bank.

C. Wild Animal Depredation: Wild animal particularly wild Elephant enters into the village from nearest hills and damage crop field and villagers’ houses. Wild Elephants crossed the Dalok village near by Bokdo L.P. School. The Elephants used to destroy the paddy crops every year. It is a very big challenge to the Dalok villagers.

18

VULNERABILITY:

People of Dalok village have identified vulnerabilities, some of which are physical, economical, environmental and situational.

i. Physical :

Jinjiram River: It is a small tributary originating from Meghalaya and flows in parallel direction of Brahmaputra across the village from east to west. People although consider the river as bless but it causes flash flood when there is heavy rainfall in Meghalaya. In Goalpara, Jinjiram is the only river which flows in western direction to fall in river Brahmaputra. It originates from foothills of Meghalaya located in south of the district Goalpara and take turn to the east and then flows across the village towards west direction through Mankachar before falling into river Brahmaputra. Before entering into the village Dalok, the river Jinjiram passes aside by Urpad Beel (the largest wetland of Goalpara district.) According to community the Jinjiram increases vulnerability of the village for flash flood due to following factors.

There is heavy siltation of the river from Derek to Deulijira for which water carrying capacity of the river reduce significantly.

Heavy rainfall in Meghalaya causes intense current of water

It carries mud, aquatic weeds and huge debris during inundation

Channels of two wetland knows as Thakurbilla Beel and Rourang Beel in the western part of the village become closed for which water from the river Jinjiram cannot go to the wetland leading to increased water level.

If there is breach of embankment in river Jinari, water enters into the river Jinjiram and causes heavy inundation in the village Dalok.

According to the villagers one of the major causes for breach of embankment in Jinari River is backflow of water due to barrier created by railway track (Located around 10 to 12 K.M away from the village at Thailapara, Dhaigaon of Krishnai area). When there is heavy rainfall in Meghalaya, the railway track prevents the flow of water in its inflow direction and causes backflow of water to enter into the river Jinari. Thus there is heavy rise of water level and causes breach of embankment and water enters into the Jinjiram River.

The rive Jinjiram has to pass through a narrow passage between the two hillocks at Rongsai in western direction. According to the community, there is heavy siltation in this portion for which it cannot carry sufficient water volume during rainy season. As a result heavy inundation observed in village Dalok.

19

5 Nos. of families residing away from about 50 meter of the wooden bridge. After the flash flood, the approach portion of bridge was completely damaged and slowly erosion is extending towards these families.

20 Nos. of families living near the bank of the river in the southern part of the villages. After the flash flood, erosion starts and it has started to engulf the residential areas of these families.

Wooden Bridge: The wooden bridge over the river Jinjiram connecting North and Southern part of the village is a big hazard for the village. The bridge is very weak and except bicycle, no other vehicle can go over the bridge. Although people can go on- foot over the bridge, but it become very risky for old, infirm, disable, children and pregnant women. Moreover debris and aquatic weeds clogs over the wooden pole of the bridge and it slows down the flow of water.

Railway track: According to the villagers one of the major causes for breach of embankment of Jinari River caused by backflow of water due to barrier created by railway track (Located around 10-12 K.M away from the village at Thailapara, Dhaigaon of Krishnai area). When there is heavy rainfall in Meghalaya, the railway track prevents the flow of water in its inflow direction and causes backflow of water to enter into the river Jinari. Thus there is heavy rise of water level and causes breach of embankment and inundation of the Jinari. If there is breach of embankment in river Jinari, water enters into the river Jinjiram and causes heavy inundation in the village Dalok.

ii. Environmental factors : Heavy rainfall in Meghalaya, Massive deforestation and siltation of river and channels.

iii. Social : There are 26 nos. of physically challenged people ( Hearing impairment: 12 , Dumb: 6 , Mentally retarded : 3, Locomotors disturbance: 5 ) in the village and they are considered one of the most vulnerable groups. There are also 74 nos. of people above the age of 60 years and 88 nos. of children below the age of 6 years. These groups are also considered as vulnerable for any natural calamities.

iv. Economic : During PRA exercise, wealth ranking tool was followed to find out the poor families as per people’s perception. Accordingly they identified 150 nos. of poor families and these families are considered as vulnerable for any kind of natural calamities.

CHAPTER-II

Sources of threats to the village community:

1. Flood:

a. The village Dalok is situated in the bank of river Jinjiram. The river Jinjiram which originates from the Urpad Bill in the north side of Agia flows through the village Dalok from north-east to south-west direction. During flood season, occasionally huge quantity of water flows down the Garo hills and feeds river Jinari which directs the water towards the Urpad Beel which is connected to river Jinjiram, as a result river Jinjiram gets over flooded and inundates its adjoining areas including Dalok village.

b. The River Jinjiram flows through the village with no embankment of Water Resource Department or other concern Departments. Once the water level of Jinjiram River increases, due to flash flood situation, water overflows and enters into the paddy fields and the household of the villagers.

c. During the high flash flood situation, most of the village habitations (about 90 % of total area) gets inundated and people take shelter along with their animals in Lalipahar high land area (Sri Sri Bishnu Mandir, Lalipahar) and also at Farmer Training Centre near Lalipahar. The road was also got submerged in the flash flood of 2004 and 2014.

Therefore it can be said that flood is a major threat for the villagers of Dalok village and this issue has to be managed with proper planning.

Roles & Responsibilities of VLMCC:

FLOOD:

Sl. No. Period Action to be taken

1. Before Flood

Discuss the history of floods in the village to find out what went wrong in responding to the threat at the community level and by the government agencies.

Familiarise yourself with the Flood Hazard Atlas prepared by the ISRO showing the vulnerability of the Dalok village.

Consult the report prepared by the Water Resources Department on the vulnerable sections of the embankment and share your own assessment of the same with them.

Make an assessment of the houses constructed by encroaching on the natural course or normal floodplain of the river.

Make an assessment of the houses in lower areas prone to water logging or flooding.

Update the list of vulnerable sections of population prepared

36

for facing flood. Prepare and keep updating the inventory of items that may be

helpful in facing floods. These include boats, ropes, tents, tarpaulin, torch light etc. Identify and prepare the list of useful human resources,

including persons with good swimming and diving skills, persons with knowledge of carpentry, persons who can help in administering First Aid etc.

Update contact details of the SEOC, DEOC, Circle Office and other numbers dedicated to emergency management.

Familiarise yourself with the places/sites/buildings identified to be used for temporary shelter or Relief Camps or for keeping the cattle during floods.

Familiarise yourself with the places earmarked for the disposal of carcass.

Drinking water, sanitation facility, food, fodder and medicines are the critical necessities for the flood-affected people.

Make an assessment of the stocks and resources available with the community and village level organisations and familiarise yourself with the arrangements made by the government departments.

Organise training for the villagers with the help of line departments on purifying river water to be used for drinking purposes, making temporary low-cost latrines, and medicines for common diseases.

Take stock of the problems in connectivity faced during the worst case scenario and report the weak bridges, poor approaches to bridges, non-availability of drainage facility or bypasses for the roads prone to water logging or flooding.

Identify alternative routes to be used if main arteries of connectivity get disrupted.

Identify persons who can be used to send information to the authorities if communication channels of landline or mobile phone do not work.

Form Quick Response Teams with village level volunteers for effective response to the challenges in the same manner as for the earthquake. Such Teams may be formed for:• Rescuing and carrying the persons to safer places.• Helping vulnerable sections of population in

evacuation.• Carrying the cattle to safer places.• Providing First Aid.• Carrying seriously ill persons to hospitals/Health

Centres immediately.• Setting up temporary shelters/camps.• Disposal of dead bodies and carcasses.

It is essential to know the duties and responsibilities of various government departments to demand services from them. Familiarise yourself with the provisions contained in

37

Assam Disaster Management Manual in this regard. Also familiarise yourself with the SDRF guidelines for

financial assistance to the affected persons. Awareness generation should be an on-going activity and be

intensified during pre-monsoon period. Food security is a critical issue for the perennially flood-

affected areas. It can be assured by growing appropriate flood-resistant and short-duration varieties of crops and altering the cropping pattern suitably.

Ask Agriculture Department to provide training and input support.

Agriculture department is also required to raise nurseries and have some sufficient supply of seed and saplings to help farmers cope with the crop damages caused by floods.

Ask for information on arrangements made and norms laid down in this regard.

Permanent t solution to the drinking water problem lies in construction of dug-wells or providing hand-pumps in a manner that they don’t get submerged during floods.

It is also essential to design Running water Supply schemes in a manner that they remain functional during flood season.

Take up the matter with PHE Department. Sanitation related problems become a nightmare during

floods. Innovative designs of latrines need to be introduced. Ask PHE Department what their plans are in this regard. Construction of houses in flood-prone areas also needs to be

adapted to the ground reality. Ask P. & R. D. Department and PWD (B) how they can

help the villagers. Blocking and chocking of natural drainage systems and

encroachment on wetlands adds to the severity of floods. Ask Water Resources Department to clear the natural

drainage systems and Circle officer to remove encroachment on all wetlands.

It is the responsibility of the Education and H. & F.W. Departments to construct schools and hospitals in safer and high-land areas with proper approach roads.

Take up with these departments to take remedial measures. Keeping surplus stock of food grains is the responsibility of

Food and Civil Supplies Department. Get information from them about the stock maintained.

Ask A.H & Veterinary Department about the plans to ensure adequate provision of fodder and medicines for the cattle.

Approach SDRF through the Circle Officer for conducting mock drills and training volunteers in diving and other rescue skills.

Impact of floods on soil health can both be beneficial and harmful. Soil Conservation Department is required to make an assessment of the soil health and its impact on the

38

productivity of the land. Ask the department to share its findings about the soil health

and steps planned to restore it.

2. During Flood

Floods may strike in four forms: Low floods, High floods, sudden flooding due to breach in embankment or unannounced release of water from dams, and Flash floods due to heavy downpour in the upper reaches.

Following steps should be taken: Share/disseminate the warning/information received from

confirmed sources with optimum speed. Mobilise the Quick response teams to evacuate and carry

people to temporary shelters/relief camps. Get in touch with the authorities for assistance through

DEOC, SEOC or other Helpline numbers.(1077- DEOC & 1070- SEOC)

Take other measures as discussed in respect of coping with the earthquakes.

Beware of rumours and don’t disseminate exaggerated reports of threat or damage.

3. After Flood (Damage Assessment)

SDRF provides for financial assistance to the NOK of those who lost their lives and to the affected persons for damaged houses, crop loss, damage to agricultural fields, loss of cattle, restoration of damaged infrastructure like roads, embankments, schools, AWCs etc.

Familiarise yourself with the SDRF guidelines to able to keep a tab on the Damage Assessment exercise being carried out by the Government officials.

Maximum problems are faced in the reports regarding land affected by siltation, input subsidy against damaged crops and loss of large and small cattle.

To ensure authenticity of figures, cooperate with the Agriculture and Veterinary department officials in preparing the report.

Ensure that photographs of the affected persons claiming financial assistance and damaged assets are taken at the time of damage assessment exercise.

Insist that the damage assessment report is shared with the villagers in an open meeting before it is sent to the Government.

Report the instances of under-reporting or over-reporting to the Circle Officer immediately.

39

EARTHQUAKE:

Roles & Responsibilities of VLMCC in case of Earthquake:

Sl. No. Activity Action to be takenBefore Earthquake Strikes

1. Identification of vulnerabilities

Identification of Vulnerable houses in the villages. Identification of vulnerable public buildings: schools,

temples, mosque, Church, community hall etc. Weaker sections of embankments, ramshackle bridges,

sections of road vulnerable to landslide etc. Factories or industrial establishments using/producing

poisonous gases, effluents etc. Identification of landslide prone areas, overhead HT lines,

old and unstable trees etc. Identification of vulnerable category of persons: old and

infirm, children, people with disability, mothers with infants, pregnant women etc.

2. Identification of resources

Identification of safe buildings and open spaces that can be used as shelters.

Information to be readily available about hospitals , fire stations, police station, army bases (if any), etc.

Information on item available to be used for search and rescue; like, shovel, spade, iron chain, rope, Torch Light, Vehicle etc.

Alternate routes for transportation. Alternative means of communication. Public-spirited youth agreeable to receive training on debris

removal, search and rescue operations, attending to the critically injured persons and disposal of carcases.

Male and female members of the village to receive training on providing psycho-social support to the affected families.

3. Knowledge sharing on the risk of earthquake.

Discuss the issue in Gram Sabha meetings. Organise special meetings to share the Conversation Modules

and Information Capsules. Organise debates, poster/pamphlet making competition in the

schools on important days. Take out processions in the village involving school children

and others. Encourage Youth Clubs and schools to perform street plays.

4. Creating an environment of safer buildings.

Whenever a public building (school, AWC, Sub-centre, PHC, Drinking water structure etc.) is being constructed in the village, do enquire if they are based on earthquake-resistance norms.

See if the shelves, almirahs etc. have been kept in a secure manner in schools and hospitals and corridors are not cluttered or obstructed.

Ensure that no IAY house is constructed without a written intimation in Gram Sabha that earthquake-resistance norms are built into the design.

40

Lodge formal protest with the Circle Officer and departmental authority concerned about an unsafe public building/structure.

If a person is constructing a new pucca house, do advise him to get the design prepared/ checked by a competent structural engineer and keep a tab on the compliance with the advice.

Advise everyone not to make additions or projections in the existing buildings without verifying their strength to face earthquake.

Do take up with Gram Sabha to identify and notify unsafe buildings.

In case of mud-walled or thatched houses, people should be advised to change and secure old pillars/posts and roof-supporting members etc.

Invite officials of PWD to share further information on safe building norms.

5. Every person must know

Flag following issues in regard to the personal safety in your knowledge sharing programmes:

Remember the basic principal: Fix, fasten and forget.

Fasten all shelves securely to the walls. Install shatter-safe window films to protect from

breaking glass. Use brackets to attach wall units, bookcases, and

other tall furniture to wall studs. Place large, heavy objects on lower shelves or on the

floor. They might fall during an earthquake and the less distance they have to fall, the better.

You can also screw objects onto things, such as a desk.

Use some non-slip mats to prevent heavy objects, or objects with a low centre of gravity, from sliding. For example, fish bowls vases, floral arrangements, statues, etc.

Use an invisible nylon cord to secure tall, heavy items that can topple over to the wall.

Place an eye screw in the wall, and tie the thread around the object (such as a vase) and then tie it to the eye screw.

Place breakable items (bottles, glass, china, etc.) in closed cabinets that have latches. Lock or latch them up so that the cabinet doors cannot fly open.

Use poster tack/plastic putty to keep ornaments, figurines, and glassware adhered to shelves and mantelpieces.

Heavy pictures, light fixtures, and mirrors should be hung away from beds, couches, and anywhere that someone might sit.

If you have any deep cracks in the ceiling or foundations, repair these immediately.

41

Evaluate your electrical wiring, electrical appliances, and gas connections. Do any repairs if needed. During an earthquake, faulty fittings and wiring can become a potential fire hazard.

Store flammable products in closed cabinets with latches on the bottom shelf.

Have flexible fittings placed on your gas pipes and on your water pipes.

Always remember to have a clean desk with no items on. Remove everything from the desk that is dangerous such as a knife or scissor after they are used.

Teach everyone in your household to use emergency whistles and/or to knock three times repeatedly if trapped.

Decide on a rallying point for your family for after the earthquake. It should be away from buildings.

Go over what your family should do in the event that not everyone makes it to the rallying point.

Identify an out-of-area contact person that your family can call and get in touch with one another.

Creating a family reunion point is sensible. Familiarise yourself with the main switch of the

electrical wiring in the house. Familiarise yourself with the main switch of the gas

pipeline. Keep a First- aid kit readily available in the house. Don’t forget the safety of the cattle not free to run

away. Create a Disaster Preparedness Plan incorporating all

the points mentioned above and go over it on a regular basis.

6. Maintaining the Emergency Response Kit

Have an Emergency Response Kit ready with at least the following items:

Food (Dry / Ready-to-eat) like Chira, Pithaguri, Boot-Chattu, etc. sufficient for at least three days.

Drinking Water Bottle Baby food for infants Whistle Battery operated: Radio & Torch light Spare batteries Matchbox / lighter and candles Small knife Nylon rope First aid kit (Cotton, clean cloth, bandage, antiseptic

bucket / container which may be used for carrying / storing water

All the family members should be aware of this Emergency Kit items should be checked / changed at

appropriate intervals7. Be the voice of

the Community The first contact person for the VLMCC is obviously the

Circle Officer and all the resolutions should be sent to him/her.

Take up following issues with the Government Departments by sending resolutions or by inviting the representatives to the village:

Weak and vulnerable public buildings – Department concerned.

Weak embankment – E.E., WRD. Weak bridges and sections of roads prone to landslide

– PWD (R). Unstable Hill slopes and hill-cutting, quarrying or

mining - Deputy Commissioner/ SDO ( C)/ DFO (T). Facilities for treatment for head injuries, fracture,

availability of ambulance, stretcher etc. – SDMHO/In-charge, PHC.

Unstable electric poles/ power lines over settlements or vulnerable to landslide – E. E., Power Department.

Safety measures taken by Industrial establishment regarding the danger of poisonous gas leaks or effluent discharge.

Learn to use the RTI Act to get information about critical areas of interest.

When earthquake strikes8. Every person

must know Never use the lift / elevators If you are living in a kutcha house, the best thing to do is to

move to an open area where there are no trees, electric or telephone wires.

- Remain calm!If inside

Stay inside: “DROP, COVER and HOLD!” Drop under

43

sturdy furniture. Cover as much of your head and upper body as you can. Hold the furniture.

If you cannot get under sturdy furniture, move to an inside wall or archway and sit bringing knees to your chest and cover your head.

Move away from windows, mirrors, bookcases and other unsecured heavy objects

If you are in bed, stay there and cover yourself with pillows and blankets.If outdoors:

Move into the open, away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires till the quake stops.

Avoid places where there are loose electrical wires and do not touch metal objects that are in touch with the loose wires.

There may be earthquake – triggered landslide, so avoid foothill locations after an earthquakeIf in a moving vehicle:

Stop in an open area away from all structures especially bridges, over passes, tunnels, overhead power lines.

Stay inside the vehicle. Avoid bridges or ramps as that might have been damaged by

the quake.After the quake:

Be prepared for aftershocks. Though usually less intense, aftershocks may also cause additional damages and bring down weakened structures.

If you are trapped under debris, make noise for rescuers to hear you.

Ensure your own safety and then help injured or trapped persons.

Listen to a radio for the latest emergency information. Stay out of damaged buildings / houses. Return home only when authorities say it is safe. Use telephone for emergency calls only.

9. Planning and executing immediate response.

Don’t panic or get depressed. Situation might be even worse. Try to contact the DEOC or SEOC immediately to share the

first-hand information on the scenario. Landline or mobile phone may not work. Share information

by deputing someone to the nearest HF/VHF facility. It may be Revenue Circle Office or the Police Station.

Don’t feel frustrated or let down for delay in response from outside. Many others may be in greater need of help.

It is necessary to avoid chaos and confusion in the task of search and rescue operation.

Mobilise the Quick Action Teams of trained persons and apportion areas of responsibility for the search and rescue operation.

Quick Action Teams should be functionally deployed: Helping the trapped persons out – cases with the

prospect of better chances of rescue to be attended

44

first. Carrying the injured to safe places. Carrying the persons-in-need-of help, like old and

infirm, physically challenged pregnant women and women with infants etc., to safe places.

Providing First Aid. Setting up temporary shelters by arranging drinking

water and other essential items. Clearing roads by removing fallen trees, debris,

electric poles etc. to restore connectivity. Carrying critically injured to the nearest

hospital/health centre. Make a quick head count and prepare a list of missing

persons. Remain in touch with the authorities through DEOC , SEOC

and to other Emergency Helpline Numbers.10. Clear debris to

reach out to trapped victims.

Handle debris removal carefully not to cause further injury to the trapped persons.

It is essential to give hope and confidence to the trapped persons whiles the process of debris removal in on.

Share the correct assessment and don’t exaggerate the damage caused with the SDRF and PWD (B) officials to help them mobilise the search and rescue equipment and teams. Cut the trees with available equipments and remove it as far as possible.

Cooperate with the search and rescue teams and avoid indulging in blame game.

• Wetlands, one of the crucial natural resources, are areas of land that are either temporarily or permanently covered by water.

• It includes not only (a) streams, (b) ponds, and (c) marshes, but also areas such as (d) wet meadows, (e) swamps, and (f) intermittent streams that may be dry for a significant portion of the year.

• The wetlands are of varying shape, size and depth; and locally called as beels, haors, jalah, doloni, hola, pitoni etc.

Roles & Responsibilities of VLMCC in Protection & Management of Wetlands:

Sl. No. Activity Action to be taken1. Collection of

information on past and present status of the

Apprising community of the importance of wetland, threats and measures to protect wetlands.

Interaction with senior and leading citizens to know the original nature of the wetland and tracing out its history to

45

wetlands understand the nature of the threats.

2. What VLMCC should do

schools on the World water day; Mobilising public opinion against encroachment; Peaceful marches/protest against dumping of solid

waste; Sensitising the people in neighbourhood about

harmful effects of the use of chemicals and pesticides in nearby fields or lawn.

Organising community action to clear the wetland of harmful invasive weed.

Banning of use of plastics in and around wetlands

MANAGEMENT OF RELIEF AND RECOVERY (MULTI HAZARD)

Sl. No. Activity Role of VLMCC1. Setting up Relief

camps Government is committed to provide relief to the affected

population and Assam Disaster Management Manual provides for setting up of Relief Camps until people are not able to return to their houses.

State Disaster Resource Fund prescribes norms for providing relief to the affected persons.

Familiarise yourself with the Assam Disaster Management Manual and SDRF guidelines for effective oversight on the relief management.

Important points to know about Relief camps: Every Relief Camp has to have an in-charge who

shall maintain the complete record of the inmates category-wise (Male-Female, infant, Children below six year, physically challenged persons, pregnant mothers, old person).

Relief Camp should have separate lodging facility for men and women.

There shall be separate bathing and sanitation facilities for men and women.

Availability of safe drinking water should be ensured.

Cooked food or food grains shall be provided as per SDRF guidelines.

Special food should be provided to the infants and children below six years.

The ANM and AWWs of the affected villages should stay at the camp and take care of the children and persons in need of help.

School teachers of the affected villages shall conduct classes

46

in the camp itself. Medical team should visit the camps at regular intervals and

arrangement should be there to shift the sick persons or pregnant mothers to the hospital.

Bank account of all the inmates eligible to receive financial assistance under SDRF guidelines shall be opened, if not done already, at the camp itself by organising a special drive.

Proper record of the assistance received from both Government and voluntary organisations should be kept.

A status report should be sent by the camp in-charge every day.

VLMCC is expected to maintain a close vigil on the process and help with its knowledge of affected persons and local

It is the responsibility of the government to set up relief camps, but you can help by:

Sharing authentic information of the dead, injured and missing.

Identifying the affected families and making a list of the camp inmates.

Mobilising locally available resources to meet urgent requirement of firewood, kitchen utensils, materials for temporary partition to ensure privacy for female inmates, vegetables or other agricultural produce etc.

Extending a helping hand in distribution of relief. Providing psycho-social support and emotional

healing support to the inmates. Ensuring optimum transparency in the management

of relief camps.2. Damage

Assessment It is critical to assess the damage to the life and property

correctly for assisting the affected person in the recovery process.

You can help by: Asking villagers to be present on the day of the visit

of the Damage Assessment Team. Helping the Team in identifying the affected

persons. Leading the Team to the sites of damage.

Do verify the report prepared by the team of Government officials to ensure that it mirrors the ground reality.

Bring the instances of under-reporting and over-reporting to the Circle Officer and D.C/S.D.O. through DEOC or written resolution of the Committee.

Raise your voice against delay in damage assessment.3. Taking care of

the cattle Ensure that the cattle that are not free to move are made free

to move away. Temporary sheds should be constructed for them with

proper feeding arrangement. A.H & Veterinary department Officials should immediately

be contacted to share the information of the dead and

47

injured animals and requirement of fodder. Carcass disposal is of prime importance for healthy and

hygienic environment. Do report delay in or deficiencies in the treatment of the

injured cattle or disposal of the dead.4. Ensuring Early

and Effective Recovery

Keep close vigil on the recovery and restoration efforts. Report the instances of delay in disbursal of financial

assistance. Do report instances of shoddy quality od restoration works. Organise brainstorming on the problems faced and response

to the problem to identify the areas of action to improve preparedness for the future.

Every VLMCC should come out with a consolidated report on the road-map for the future.

57

Awareness Generation and Dissemination plan: Mass awareness generation through meeting and consultation can be carried out through existing local and religious institutions .Similarly distribution of leaflet, pamphlet, and banner may be carried out in local festivals. Wall writing in specific location may be carried out.

B. Strengthening of existing shelter place : People living in northern part of the villages, usually move to Lalipahar to take shelter. Lalipahar is a small hillock located in the middle of the village. There is a temple in the Lalipahar and a shade which can accommodate about 50 people. But there is enough space to accommodate about 200 people. No drinking water and sanitation facilities. It is needed to have a shade along with drinking water and sanitation facilities before flood season. There is another hillock called Lakhinder Pahar. People use this place for sheltering their livestock during flood. This place is also required to have shade and drinking water facilities for livestock.

C. Making availability of Country boat and Machine boats : There is an urgent need to deploy two nos. of boat in the village. Community feels that there should be at least two nos. of boats (machine boat or country boats) in the village during the time of monsoon. One should be placed on the northern part and another should be placed on the southern part.

D. Improving the Existing Early Warning System : There is an urgent need to improve the existing warning system. The existing warning system (striking on hollow iron electric pole) may cause accident to the user. Availability of mega phone and installation of bell at prominent places may improve the existing warning system. Similarly flow of real-time information of rainfall from Meghalaya may improve existing warning system.

E. Making availability of minimum Health care facilities : The village does not have any health institution. The nearest health institution is located one KM away from the village. Hence there is need to stock sufficient First-Aid Kits for the First-Aid and medical team in order to provide minimum health care facilities during emergency.

F. Pre-stocking of Water purification materials : The village has major problem of high iron content in the available ground water. There is an urgent need to keep ready with native filtration system along with bleaching powder, halogen tablet and other water purification materials for the water and sanitation team.

PROVISION OF FAMILY DISASTER PREPAREDNESS KIT:

As a measure of preparedness it is expected that each family of the village will keep a Disaster Preparedness Kit/Emergency preparedness kit. The Emergency preparedness kit will contain the following items which may be used in a situation like disaster.

I. Torchlight with Batteries.

58

II. First Aid Kit (Antiseptic, Bandage, Sanitary Napkin, Cotton Bandage, ORS packets Etc.)

III. Non-perishable Dry fruit, canned baby food, Ready-to-eat like Chira, Pithaguri, Boot-Chattu, etc. sufficient for at least three days.

IV. Screw driver/ Electric Tester, Hammer, Whistle, Nylon Rope, Cutter/ Small knife etc.

V. Water Bottle.VI. Matchbox / lighter and candles

VII. Essential emergency medicines. Prescription medicines if needed by any family member

VIII. Spare eye-glassesIX. One set of cloths for each memberX. Soaps and personal sanitary items for health & hygiene.

XI. Xerox copy of important documents in a plastic pouchXII. Important Phone Nos. viz. police station, hospital, Circle Officer, BDO, etc.

XIII. Utensils (Plates – 2, Glasses -2, Food Bowls – 2, etc.)XIV. Polythene sheet (6 ft. x 6 ft. – 2 sets)XV. Blankets (one or two) in winter season

XVI. Other essential items. Etc.

Note:

All these items may be kept in a 15 litres covered bucket / container which may be used for carrying / storing water. All the family members should be aware of this

Emergency Kit items should be checked / changed at appropriate intervals

MITIGATION PLAN:

The community feels that the following mitigation measure should be undertaken in order to reduce the impact of flash flood, erosion and other disasters.

Replacement of existing wooden bridge with RCC Bridge. Redesign of railway track. According to the community, Hume pipe of railway track

located around 10 to 12 K.M away from the village at Thailapara; Dhaigaon of Krishnai area should be replaced by RCC Bridge for easy passage of large water volume.

Dredging of river Jinjiram from Derek to Deulijira for facilitating de-siltation. Channels of two wetland known as Thakurbilla beel and Rourang beel in the western

part should immediately be opened. Digging and cleaning of silt at the narrow passage between the two hillocks at Rongsai

in western direction. Construction of 500 meter dyke in the eastern part of the river Jinjiram.

59

Boulder pitching from the existing wooden bridge on each side of the river Jinjiram up to 500 meter in western direction.

Construction of community hall for around 200 people capacity at LaliPahar and Paharkata along with drinking water and sanitation facilities.

Collection and treatment of water from stream originating from nearest Ajagar Pahar and Satboini Pahar and distribution of the same through pipe water supply schemes in order to ensure iron free water. A Water tank may be built at a high place for storing the spring water and using the gradient a viable pipe water distribution system may be built.

Provision of Community Disaster Contingency Fund

During discussion with the village community it has been found that after any disaster it leads to an urgent need of financial help or other resources at the community level before the intervention from the administration starts. In order to enhance the community resilience and disaster risk reduction activities there should be a provision of community contingency fund. This fund will help to organize immediate relief and rescue measures to the most vulnerable people in the village and other households who are most affected in rehabilitation. The contingency fund will be created with personal contribution from each household of the village; a bank account will be maintained by the VLMCC members of the village. The fund, if unused in any emergency situation can also be utilized in other developmental work of the village.

Creation of Community Grain bank

As a part of long term mitigation measures the community of the village had the opinion that there should be a provision of community grain bank which will be maintain by the VLMCC members. The grain bank will be a common granary for the staple food grain for meting up the need of emergency food requirement for the poor and deprived villagers during any disastrous situation like flood or any emergency when they are deprived of food etc. This grain bank will be created by voluntary contribution of food grains from each household with respect to amount of land holding and yield. For this purpose a community granary will be maintained at a safe common location in the village which is raised above the common flood level of water in the recent floods. The grains, if unused in any emergency situation for almost a year may be sold in the next year as food grain in the market or as subsidized seed to the village farmers and the money thus earn may be kept in the bank account of the community Disaster Contingency Fund or may be directly used for the development of the villagers.
