SOCIAL SCIENCE (5 Marks)

A project on (Disaster Management) – Mitigation

Choose Any one natural disaster or man-made disaster and write down the rescue measures of the topic
chosen.

Eg : Earthquake , Cyclones , Landslides, Hazardous material spills, Rail accidents. Cyclone Hudhud
Case study Hudhud caused extensive damage to the city of Visakhapatnam and the neighbouring districts of
Vizianagaram and Srikakulam of Andhra Pradesh. Damages were estimated to be ₹219 billion (US$3.58
billion) by the Andhra state government. At least 124 deaths have been confirmed, a majority of them from
Andhra Pradesh and Nepal, with the latter experiencing an avalanche due to the cyclone.

Preparations and impact

Andhra Pradesh
An alert was sounded in nine out of thirteen districts of Andhra Pradesh where standing crops including
paddy, groundnut, sugarcane, and pulses were yet to be harvested. Over 700,000 people, including 500,000
people in Andhra Pradesh, were evacuated and put up in relief camps & emergency bunkers. The local
government made arrangements to shift half a million people in all.
Central government has mobilised the Army, Navy, and the National Disaster Response Force to provide
relief to over 2,80,000 people in 44 mandals across four districts. Chandrababu Naidu the then Chief
Minister of Andhra Pradesh shifted base from Hyderabad to Visakhapatnam after the cyclone made landfall.
To monitor the disaster relief work that was being undertaken, he stayed in a bus parked outside the city
collectorate. He also undertook visits to districts bordering Odisha such as Srikakulam which were badly hit
by the cyclone. Post the disaster, he vowed to rebuild Vizag which was badly affected by it.
