INTRODUCTION The Department of Disaster Management has evolved under a process of metamorphosis since Independence. Originally, the Department of Food, Relief and Supplies was the parent department for three Department, i.e. those of Food, Social Welfare and Relief. The State Government felt the importance of creating a separate Department of Relief and Social Welfare in the eighties. The Department of Relief and Social Welfare came into being in 1983. This continued upto 1992, when a full-fledged Department of Relief was established after bifurcating the previous department in view of enhanced importance of the relief activities of the State Government. During all these periods, the Department catered to the need of the people during emergency by arranging emergency relief operations, which included rescue, relief and rehabilitation for calamity-affected people of the State. Some social welfare activities have also been conducted by the Department during those periods.

After occurrence of 1999 Orissa Super Cyclone and 2001 Kutch Earthquake in Gujarat, a paradigm shift took place in the conception of the Government regarding crisis management, i.e. rescue, relief and rehabilitation. Whether, expenditure in crisis management is paying, whether risk management activities require to be undertaken side by side with crisis management and whether national programme in disaster management should be flagged off for ensuring sustainability in development works, began to be debated at the Government of India level together with some of the States, which caused great loss of human and animal lives, damage to all infrastructure and unmanageable budget deficit at the hand of extreme natural calamities.

Meanwhile, the United Nations, after reviewing the progress of Yokohama Strategy, pioneered some novel measures at Hyogo in 2005, introduced Hyogo Framework of Action 2005-2015 and set target to attain Millennium Development Goals related to disaster management, within 2015 through a series of programmes to be implemented by all member countries. India, being a signatory to all treaties introduced by the UN, established a High Powered Committee in 1999 under Sri J.C.Pant, former Secretary of the Government of India, for recommending the measures for achieving the MDG within 2015. All the MDGs are concerned somehow or other with sustainable development of the developed and under-developed countries of the world. Urgent programmes were felt to be undertaken for achieving the MDGs and for ensuring sustainable development. This Committee recommended undertaking preparedness measures, knowledge-sharing, mitigation and preventive measures across the country. One very important step was taken by the Government of India by shifting the task of undertaking disaster management from the helm of the Ministry of Agriculture to that of Ministry of Home Affairs. After the Ministry of Home Affairs took over the job of introducing a reign of disaster management in the country, work began for understanding the concept of risk management and introducing risk management side by side crisis management. State Governments across the country started to rechristen the Departments looking after crisis management as the Department of Disaster Management for giving a fillip to the risk management activities properly. Most of the States in the country did not have a full-fledged Department of Relief. West Bengal was one of few fortunate States, having separate Department of Relief. Hence, the State Government renamed the Department of

Relief as that of Disaster Management with effect from 29 th June, 2006.

Paschim Medinipur, Purba Medinipur, South 24-Parganas, North 24-Parganas, Howrah, Hooghly, part of Nadia, Burdwan and Bankura fall within very high to high risk zones for cyclone. Besides, the districts of Bankura and Purulia are drought prone. Natural calamity like landslide occurs in the hilly region of Darjeeling district causing great loss to the inhabitants of that area and to the infrastructure.

The same is being updated and revised for the year 2013-14. Most of the emergency service providers particularly Police, Fire, Irrigation & Waterways, Agriculture and Health have their own crisis management plan by which they manage any emergency. Department of Health & Family Welfare have a strong contingency plan for flood / cyclone management up to block level having make-shift infrastructure facilities, stock of essential medicines, a tentative week-wise roster of doctors, nurses and MPHWs etc. All the districts of West Bengal developed their disaster management plan during implementation of GOI - UNDP DRM programme and state funded DRM programme.

lSTATE INTERS AGENCY GROUP WEST BENGAL :

State Inter Agency Group West Bengal was formed in the year 2000 to promote GO-UN-NGO coordination and a united response and preparedness mechanism. At present, State IAG is working in close collaboration with Department of Disaster Management, Government of West Bengal. During 2012 - 13, IAG - WB undertook the activities like :

CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT OF THE WEST BENGAL STATE IAG IN SEARCH AND RESCUE (SAR) FOR PRE-MONSOON PREPAREDNESS : In any disaster, women and children are the most vulnerable and affected group. In this context three training for 150 local emergency responders especially women in basic life saving skills of SAR have been conducted during July - August 2013 at Krishnagar, Nadia, Bharampore, Murshidabad and Malda. A roster of these 150 trained local emergency responders across most disaster affected districts of the state has been developed who can be deployed at the time of emergency by GO / NGO if required. This roster with State and district administrations and the member’s organizations of State IAG-WB through website and mailing list have been shared. Coordination Meetings : State IAG conducted coordination meetings on excessive downpour, flood-like situation during July and Augus 2012 - 2013 for reviewing the extent of damage. Representatives from different NGOs in collaboration with District Disaster Management Officers district visited the affected areas for multi-sectoral assessment in two spells during June and September 2012 & 2013. On the basis of this assessment and proposed by the District Administration as well, UNICEF and other international agencies responded with relief inputs in few areas of Purba & Paschim Medinipur and Hooghly District.

6. Key Projects under Disaster Risk Reduction programme : In the aftermath of the cyclone Aila of 2009 that ravaged the coastal West Bengal including Sundarban area, it was felt that the number of deaths were more in the affected areas due to non-availability of safe shelter buildings in the coastal villages. The Government of Central and State correctly decided to undertake construction of multipurpose cyclone shelters in high risk areas of three costal districts of West Bengal. The detail of these projects was furnished subsequently.

Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund, (PMNRF) : 50 Multipurpose Cyclone Shelter (MPCS) will be constructed under National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA). These shelters will be constructed in 3 Districts and the numbers of shelter to be constructed district wise given in the matrix. Two Central Government undertaking EPIL (Engineering Project India limited) and HSCL (Hindusthan Steel Works Construction limited) were assigned for the works. EPIL
