Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 2
1. INTRODUCTION-CHITRADURGA DISTRICT PROFILE
Chitradurga district is situated 13° 34’ and 15° 12’ north latitude and 75° 37’ and 77° 01’ east
longitude. The district bounded on the north by Bellary district and on the east by Ananthapur, a
district of Andra Pradesh. On the south east and south west it is bordered by the district of
Tumkur, and Chickmagalur. On the west and north-east, it is bounded by Shimoga and
Davanagere districts respectively. There is no perennial source of water, including rivers and
hence the district is under the clutches of drought. The district is not in the Airstrip, However
connected with other mode of communication like rail and national highway. Though there is
shortage of perennial source of water, majority of land is block cotton soil, very fertile and hence
abundant yield of agriculture and horticultural crops are being cultivated. The district is
industrially backward.
However, in the recent past there are occurrence of disaster including Drought, Dam burst,
Building collapses, Pest attack, Accidents etc., Hence forecasting future disasters and to combat
and preparedness for such events District Disaster Management Plan has been now prepared as
per the guidelines provided.
All the Tahsildars have been inspired and instructed to form groups of Village Accountants,
Revenue Inspectors, Deputy Tahsildars, wherever nodal officers are available and to identify the
vulnerable areas and also to plan for the local publicity at the time of such incidents. The taluk
level officers like Executive Officer, Asst. Executive Engineers, Block Educational Officers and
all other departments are also asked to be in our team to provide necessary help to provide
shelter, food, repairs of roads, culverts, etc., wherever required. Karnataka Electricity Board
Staff, Medical Staff and Municipality or Panchayath Staff have been asked to extend their
services, within their limits. Almost all the social workers, NGOs and the likeminded people
have been asked to provide their services in times of need.
All the officers were kept in touch with the DDM Heads, both in taluk and district level. Police,
Home guards were kept in red alert especially in project areas and on river banks.
Police Officers, Home guards were alerted to identify the vulnerable plans along the river banks
and flood hit areas. And also to identify the places where rehabilitation camps are to be opened,
facilities to provide drinking water, food providing facility and areas available resources are to
be identified. Medical facilities, NGO assistance, maintenance of cattle, open space for all their
activities are also to be kept in mind inidentifying the mitigation plan. The slum areas, the
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 3
people living in low line areas, backwater level areas were kept in mind, and high alert and wide
publicity arrangements were also made.
Officers of all the departments have weekly meeting to discuss with the inter departmental plans
to share each other and also to eradicate the difficulties that they are facing in the field level.
Local engineers of PWD, PRED, have been asked to be in red alert to assess the damage and to
immediate repair/alternate arrangements in their area without waiting for procedural aspects.
Logistics arrangements for rescue operation has been discussed, including animal care,
management of the deceased have been discussed.
Municipal authorities, Gram Panchayath, Town Panchayath Officials were asked to keep an eye
view of buildings and to take precaution care of such weak buildings, to keep up the bad
drainage works repaired and to identify the risk oriented infrastructure. All the PWD, PRED

2. HAZARD VULNERABILITY, CAPACITY AND RISK ASSESSMENT
NEED FOR DDMP: -
The purpose of preparing District Disaster Management Action Plan (DDMAP) is -
a) To ascertain the status of existing resources and facilities available with the various
agencies involved in the management of disaster in the district.
b) Assess their adequacies and short falls if any in providing a multi disaster response.
c) Suggest institutional strengthening, technology support, up gradation of information
system and data management for improving the quality of administrative responses to
disaster at the district level and finally.
d) To evolve DDMAP as an effective managerial tool.
OBJECTIVES
In the absence of a defined plan response to a disaster would be arbitrary leading to over
emphasis of some actions or other actions, which would be critical. Moreover, due to absence of
a defined response structure and responsibilities allocations there would be mismanagement of
resources and overlap of actions among various agencies, which may exacerbate the situation
thereby compounding the disaster effect.
A formal planning for managing disaster is therefore necessary to ensure minimize of hardship.
This can be achieved only through: -
a) Preplanning of proper sequence of response actions.
b) Allocation of responsibilities to the participating agencies.
c) Effective management of resources, and\
d) Developing codes and standard operating procedures for smooth coordination between
various departments and relief agencies involved.
The objectives of any DDMAP should be to localize a disaster and to the maximum extent
possible contain it so as to minimize the impact on life, the environment and property.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 10
DISASTER
An occurrence of severity and magnitude that normally results in deaths, injuries, and property
damage and that cannot be managed through the routine procedures and resources of
government. It usually develops suddenly and unexpectedly and requires immediate,
coordinated, and effective response by multiple government, voluntary and private sector
organisations to meet human needs and speed recovery.
DISASTER MANAGEMENT
A collective term encompassing all aspects of planning for and responding to disasters, including
both pre- and post-disaster activities. It may refer to the management of both the risks and
consequences of disasters.

DISASTERS IN CHITRADURGA DISTRICT
In Chitradurga District many major disasters can occur except Sea erosion, snow avalanches etc.
As such, Disaster Management Plan has been worked out to encounter such Disasters in
Chitradurga District. The anticipated disasters have been detailed in following paragraphs and
infrastructure facilities, men-power, stock of equipments etc with various Departments have been
given in the Annexures.
WATER AND CLIMATE RELATED DISASTERS
a) FLOOD:
Chitradurga district comes under less rainfall area. There are no major rivers. However untimely
heavy rains coupe flooding of existing rivers, reservoirs and create havocs. There are may past
incidents of breach of reservoirs in the District.
Hence, Minor irrigation Department has assessed the weak reservoirs areas which are prone to
breach due to heavy rains, and they have identified low-lying areas prone for submerging due to
floods and also suggested short term and long term measures.
In case of flood Disaster due to heavy rains and breach of reservoir, following
Departments/Agency play rains and breach of reservoir, following Department/Agency play vital
role. Formation of floodplains
Floodplains are formed when a meander erodes sideways as it travels downstream. When a
river breaks its banks, it leaves behind layers of alluvium(silt). These gradually build up to create
the floor of the plain. Floodplains generally contain unconsolidated sediments, often extending
below the bed of the steams. These are accumulations of sand, gravels, loam, silt, and clay and
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 12
are often important aquifers, the water drawn from them being pre-filtered compared to the water
in the river.
Geologically ancient floodplains are often represented in the landscape by fluvial terraces.
These are old floodplains that remain relatively high above the present floodplain and indicate
former courses of a stream.
Types of Flood
River flooding
Coastal flooding
Inland flooding
Flash flooding
River Flooding
With river flooding, the NWS uses different categories to convey the expected flood
severity. These categories are minor, moderate and major flooding. Each category has a
definition based on property damage and public threat and are closely coordinated by the
local NWS office.
Coastal Flooding
Coastal flooding is another type of flood. Along the coast, storm surge is often the
greatest threat to life and property from a tropical cyclone. In the past, large death tolls
have resulted from the rise of the ocean associated with many of the major hurricanes that
have made landfall. Hurricane Katrina in 2005 is a prime example of
Coastal flooding.
Inland Flooding
Typically greater rainfall amounts and flooding are associated with tropical cyclones that
have a slow forward speed or stall over an area. These areas can be right along the coast but they
may be even hundreds of miles away from where the storm made landfall. Tropical Storm Lee is
a recent example of inland flooding
Flash Flooding
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 13
A flash flood is defined as a rapid and extreme flow of high water into a normally dry
area or a rapid water level rise in a stream or creek above a predominant flood level. Commonly
it occurs within six hours of a heavy rain event. However, flash floods can even occur in areas
away from the causative event.
Causes of floods
1.Rainfall
• Long periods of heavy rain, e.g. Carlisle 2005
• High intensity rain exceeds the infiltration capacity of the soil, e.g. North-east England
and Scotland 2011
• High antecedent rainfall can leave the soil saturated, e.g. Boscastle 2004.
• Can affect all parts of a river.
• Occurs more frequently after large areas have been covered recently by impermeable
materials.
2.Snow and ice melt
• Affects mainly mountains and high latitude areas.
• Affects mainly the upper course of a river.
• In some areas, 75% of the year’s river flow can occur when temperatures suddenly rise.
• Presence of downstream ice can act as a dam and force upstream water to rise, e.g. Red
River flood 2011.
3.Tidal influences
• Affects the lower course of a river, e.g. Boscastle 2004.
4.Other natural causes
• Occurs infrequently. Is due to large earthquakes or tsunami, e.g. Japan 2011
• Could also be caused by a landslide, e.g. Hunza Valley 2010.
5.Urbanisation and urban growth
• The increase in impermeable surfaces and increase in drainage density(gutters and
sewers, etc.) leads to an increase in flood frequency and in the degree of flooding.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 14
6.Bridges, dams and other obstructions
• These may act as temporary obstructions causing the water to ‘pond up’. This may
increase pressure on the bridge and eventually cause the collapse of the bridge.
Downstream ice can also act as a temporary dam dam causing the upstream water to rise.
7.Changes in vegetation cover
• The removal of vegetation leads to less interception of water, more overland flow and an
increased risk of flooding. In contrast, the planting of vegetation can decrease the
probability of flooding and/or the size of peak discharge.
8.River engineering works
• E.g. levees, they protect floodplains from a certain size of flood(the 50 year flood) but
they do not offer protection from larger floods. They cause local people to become
complacent as to the flood risk.
9.Floodplain developments
• Any development on the floodplains (factories, roads, housing and car parks, etc.)
increase the amount of impermeable surface. This increases both the amount of surface
runoff and reduces the lag time, thereby increasing the risk of flooding. It may cause
other locations to flood, and floodwaters to be deeper.
10.Small drainage basins
• Small drainage basins respond quickly to high rainfall events causing ‘flash floods’ and
allowing less time for taking action/ response.
11.Steep slopes
• Water flow is faster on steep slopes. The time lag between maximum rainfall and the
flood’s peak discharge
Effects of floods
• Agricultural lands are destroyed due to crops being submerged in water. This causes a lot
of economic loss to farmers.
• They wreck houses, particularly kuccha houses in the villages.
• They cause disruption of all transport and communication.
• There is shortage of drinking water.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 15
• They cause a rise in epidemics because of water logging. Malaria and diarrhoea are
common diseases during floods.
• They cause decay of organic matter, leading to growth of infection-spreading germs.
• They affect the ecosystem in a negative way.
• They cause a lot of harm to the economy of the region.
• Affects mainly mountainous and high latitude areas.
• Affects mainly the upper course of a river.
• Long periods of heavy rain, high intensity rainfall exceeds the infiltration capacity of the
soil.
• Presence of downstream ice can act as a dam and force upstream water to rise.
• High antecedents rainfall can leave the soil saturated.
Safety measures for flooding
Before a flood
Analyse the history of flooding in your region and determine the impact to your
property.
• Closely monitor weather forecasts.
• Do not go near the river/ river banks to witness the event. Your curiosity may cost you
and your family.
• Be ready to act immediately. Floods/ flash floods/GLOF can happen quickly without
warning.
• Have an emergency evacuation plan.
• Get your disaster supplies ready.
• Be prepared to move to the designated evacuation/safe areas marked by concerned
authorities.
• If your residence is in flood prone area-move your valuables to safer areas.
During a flood
If driving during flood
• Most flood related deaths occur when people are driving, avoid all essential travels.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 16
• If you must drive, avoid areas thatare subject to flooding
• Never attempt to drive over flooded road. If your car stalls, abandon it immediately and
climb to higher grounds
• Be cautions at night when it is harder to recognize flood dangers
• Closely watch out for drowned power lines and electrical wires. Report drowned lines to
the concerned authorities immediately.
If outside during a flood
• Avoid walking through flooded areas-particularly during a flood
• Watch out for snakes and other animals
If inside during a flood
• If water start to rise inside your house before evacuation, retreat to the second floor or the
attic
• Look for fire hazards, as fire is most frequent hazard following floods
• Keep off the power until an electrician has inspected your system for safety
• Be careful walking around as the steps.
After a flood
If required, seek necessary medical aid at the nearest hospital or clinic
Contaminated flood waters can lead to very serious infections
Help neighbors who need assistance
Avoid disaster areas. Your presence may hamper recue and emergency operations.
Do not go near the river/river banks to collect fish brought by flood. Such fishes can be
poisonous.
Stay out of any building if floodwaters remain around the building. Floodwaters often
undermine foundations causing sinking. Floors can crack or break, and buildings can
collapse
Ensure buildings are safe before reoccupying them. Examine buildings-walls, floors,
doors, staircases, windows, foundations for damages
When entering buildings, use extreme caution. Building damage may have occurred
where you least expect it. Watch carefully every steps you take.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 17
Continue listening to the Radio or Television for further instructions and warnings from
relevant authorities.
Wear study shoes. The most common injury following a disaster is a cut feet.
Management and Mitigation of Floods
Floods cause tremendous destruction of life and property. But there are ways of protection
against floods;
• If an area is prone to floods, houses in the region should be constructed on raised
platforms. River banks should also be raised.
• Administrative authorities should properly map areas that are prone to floods.
• Rivers should be mapped and the surrounding areas appropriately prepared for floods.
• Houses should be insured to protect against economic losses.
• Placing sandbags around houses can save property.
• Dams can be constructed to prevent against losses from floods. They control the water
flow.
• Afforestation programs should be supported because depletion of forests is causing a rise
in the number of floods witnessed almost every year across the globe.
• Rivers should be cleared of harmful garbage like plastics.
• Floods should be well forecasted and warning system should be in place.
In environmental engineering, the flood mitigation involves the management and control of flood
water movement, such as redirecting flood
Depending on locality and nature of the flooding, a number of structural and non-structural
mitigation measures maybe available.
Structural flood mitigation
• Infrastructure, including dams, levees, bridges and culverts
• Maintenance of existing infrastructure
• Individual flood proofing measures
• Improved traffic access
Non-structural flood mitigation
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 18
• Property surveys
• Land use planning controls
• Building and development controls
• Catchment flood modeling
Develop a household emergency plan
The following four steps provide a strategy for mitigating the effect of flooding that considers
costs, water storage, time to site and the current state of the local environment.
Identity issues

b) WIND AND CYCLONE
Generally coastal line areas are vulnerable to the impact of cyclones. Cyclones are intense low-
pressure system. These systems are classified as Depressions, Deep depressions, Cyclones
storms, and severe cyclones.
Chitradurga District though it is not prone to cyclones, but in the past wind storms has created
disasters. The velocity of wind is high in the District.
Heavy showers of rains also experienced during deep depression in Bay of Bengal. Due to
windstorm and cyclone, trees got uprooted, Electric poles got uprooted, communication system
disrupted, crops & plantations get destroyed, and houses got damaged.
a) District Administration I Police - Play vital role to warn the people Home-guards /
NGOs. and to take measures to counter disasters.
b) Karnataka Power Transmission - Control of transmission to avoid Corporation /
Communication short-circuit, resuming power Department I Public Works - supply,
communication system, Department repair of damaged bridges.
c) Health Department -Providing first aid, treating injured and affected ones.
TYPES OF CYCLONES
The term ‘cyclone’ actually refers to several different types of storm. There are three
types of cyclones.
1. Tropical Cyclones
2. Polar cyclones
3. Mesocylones
Tropical cyclones
Tropical cyclones are what most people are familiar with because these are
cyclones that occur over the tropical ocean regions. Hurricanes and typhoons are actually types
of tropical cyclones, but they have different names so that it’s clear where that storm is
occurring. Hurricanes are found in the Atlantic and Northeast pacific, typhoons are found in
Northwest pacific.
Polar cyclones
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 20
Polar cyclones are cyclones that occur in polar region like Greenland, Siberia and
Antarctica. Unlike tropical cyclones, Polar Cyclones are usually stronger in winter months
Mesocyclones
Mesocyclone is a cyclone that occurs when part of a thunderstorm cloud starts to
spin, which may eventually lead to a tornado. 'Meso' means 'middle’.
IMPACTS OF CYCLONES
The main impact of cyclone includes heavy rainfall, strong wind, large storm
surges at landfall, and tornadoes. The destruction from a cyclone depends mainly on its
intensity, its size, and its location after the cyclone has passed, devastation often
continues. Some of the impacts of cyclones are
WIND
The wind from a category one cyclones cause minimal damage to shrubbery and
trees. Category 5 storms are the most forceful, bringing winds of more than 156mph.
Wind this fact can rip trees from the ground and flatten buildings. Cyclones that fall in
between cause varying degree of distraction, including tearing branches from trees and
destroying vegetation
FLOODING
Cyclones can produce flooding in two ways. First, tropical cyclone frequently causes
a surge in ocean waters causing sea levels to rise above normal. These surges sometimes
called tidal waves, can drown people and animals, and are often the greatest killer in
cyclone. Cyclones also can bring torrential rains that lead to flooding.
EROSION
A cyclone’s high wind can erode the soil, there by damaging existing vegetation and
ecosystems. This erosion leaves the area exposed and prone to even more wind erosion.
Sand and soil that is blown into other areas can damage the vegetation.
STORM CHURN
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 21
Storm churn happens when a cyclone winds churn up cold water as it moves across
the ocean. This churning lowers the water temperature after the storm has passed,
squelching the formation of new storms.
Distributin of cyclone in India
Map showing Coastal Areas of India affected by Cyclones
• With about 6 percent of the world wide cyclones, the Indian subcontinent is one of the
worst cyclone affected areas of the world
• About 8percent of the total land area, particularly along the eastern coast and Gujarat
coast is vulnerable to cyclones.
• Indian Ocean is one of six major cyclone prone regions of the world. On an average,
about 5-6percent tropical cyclones are formed in the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian sea
every year.
• The eastern coast is more prone to cyclones .The total cyclones generated in the Indian
ocean, strike the east coast of India.
• There are two definite seasons of cyclones in the north Indian ocean. One is from May to
June and the other from mid-September to mid –December
EFFECTS OF CYCLONES
• Cyclones cause heavy rainfall and landslides.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 22
• They cause lot of harm to towns and villages, causing severe damage kuccha houses.
Coastal businesses like shipyards and oil wells are destroyers and cause many deaths in
the ocean and money can also lost if the ship is carrying expensive cargo.
• They harm the ecosystem of the surrounding regions.
• Civic facilities are disturbed.
• Agricultural land is severely affected, especially in terms of water supply and soil
erosion.
• It cause harm to human, plant and animal life.
• Communications systems are badly affected due to cyclones.
• Cyclones are the upper ocean heat content, the vertical shear of the environment wind,
interaction with other weather systems, impact of dry air and landfall.
• Social costs includes, loss of life and livelihood, loss of crops leading to food scarcity.
• Education and other services destroyed, increased burden government to rebuild areas
affected, and meant for other projects must now be used repair the damage done by the
cyclones.
• Cyclones can make the sewage pipes block up and stop working and sewage can split
everywhere which also causes disease.
SAFETY MEASURES OF CYCLONES.
• Check with your local council or your buildings control authority to see if your home has
been built to cyclones standards.
• Check that the walls, roofs and eaves of your home are secure.
• Trim tree tops and branches well clear of your home (get council permission)
• Preferably fit shutters, or at least metal screen, to all glass areas.
• Clear your property of loose material that could blow about and possibly cause injury or
damage during extreme winds.
When a cyclone watch is issued
• Re-check your property for any loose material and tie down(or fill with water)all large,
relatively light items such as boats and rubbish bins.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 23
• Fill vehicles’ fuel tank. Check your emergency kit and fill water containers.
• Ensure household members know which the strongest part of the house is and what to do
in the event of a cyclone warning or an evacuation.
• Tune to your local radio/TV for further information and warnings.
• Check that neighbors are aware of the situation and are preparing.
When a cyclone warning is issued
• People should evacuate faster as soon as warning is issued
• If requested by local authorities, collect children from school or childcare centre and go
home.
• Park vehicles under solid shelter.
• Put wooden or plastic outdoor furniture in your pool or inside with other loose items.
• Close shutters or board-up or heavily tape all windows
When the cyclone strikes
• Disconnect all electrical appliances. Listen to your battery radio for updates
• Stay inside and shelter in the strongest part of the building
• If the building starts to break up, protect yourself with mattresses, rugs or blankets under
a strong table or bench or hold on to a solid fixture, e.g. a water pipe.
• Beware the calm eye. If the wind drops, don’t the cyclone is over: violent winds will
soon resume from another direction. Wait for the official ‘all clear’.
After the cyclone
• Don’t go outside until officially advised it is safe.
• Check for gas leaks. Don’t use electric appliances if wet.
• Listen to local radio for official warnings and advice.
• If you have to evacuate, or did so earlier, don’t return until advised. Use a recommended
route and don’t rush
• Beware of damaged power lines, bridges, buildings, trees, and don’t enter floodwaters.
• Do not drink water from unknown sources as it may be contaminated.
Management of Cyclones:
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 24
There are many structural and non-structural measures for effective disaster management
of cyclones. The structural measures include construction of cyclone shelters, construction of
cyclone resistant buildings, road links, bridges, canals, drains, saline embankments, surface
water tanks, communication and power transmission networks etc.
NOTE: The infrastructure facilities man power available with Line Departments and Off-site
Management Committee have been given in the Annexure.
c) CLOUD BURSTS
In Chitradurga District on a few occasions due to sudden heavy rains, cloud busts have occurred
killing even human beings and cattle. District Administration to be vigilant and identify the areas
of recurrence and all line Departments to counter the disasters.
NOTE: All the measures outlines in Disaster like flood, cyclone, combating are relevant.
d) THUNDERSTORM AND LIGHTNING
These are also dangerous causing disasters like loss of human lives, cattle, and electrical
damages, There are many instances of details due to lightning almost early year.
Most thunderstorms contain 3 phase
1.The cumulus stage
2.The mature stage
3.Dissipating stage
1. The cumulus stage:
The sun heats the earth’s surface during the day. The heat on the surface and warm the air
around it. Since warm air is lighter than cool air. It starts to rise (known as an updraft). If the air
is moist then the warm air condenses into a cumulus cloud. The cloud will continue to grow as
long as warm air below it continuous to rise.
2. Mature stage:
When the cumulus cloud becomes very large. The water in it becomes large and heavy. A
raindrop starts to fall through the cloud when the rising air can no longer hold them up.
Meanwhile cool dry air starts to enter the cloud. Because cool air is heavier than warm air it
starts to descend in the cloud (known as a downdraft). The down draft pulls the heavy water
downward making rain.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 25
3.Dissipating stage:
After about 30 minutes the thunderstorms begins to dominate over the updraft. Since
warm moist air can no longer rise, cloud droplets can no longer form. The storms dies out with
light rain as the cloud disappears from bottom to top.
Types of thunderstorms:
1.Single cell storms:
Typically last 20-30 minutes pulse storms can produce severe weather elements such as
downbursts, hail, some heavy rainfall and occasionally weak tornadoes.
2.Multi cell cluster storms:
A group of cells moving as a single unit, with each cell in a different stage of the
thunderstorms life cycle. Multi cell storms can produce moderate size hail, flash, floods and
weak tornadoes.
3.Squall line storms:
A squall line is a group of storms arranged in a line, often accompanied by “squalls” of
high wind and heavy rain. Squall lines tend to pass quickly and are less prone to produce
tornadoes than are supercells. They can be hundreds of miles long but are typically only 10 or 20
miles wide.
4.Supercells:
A supercell is a long-lived (greater than 1 hour) and highly organized storm feeding off
an updraft (a rising current of air) that is tilted and rotating. This rotating updraft – as large as 10
miles in diameter and up to 50,000 feet tall – can be present as much as 20 to 60 minutes before a
tornado forms.
Mesoscale Convective System
A Mesoscale Convective System (MCS) is a collection of thunderstorms that act as a
system. An MCS can spread across an entire state and last more than 12 hours.
• Mesoscale convective complex (MCC)—A particular type of MCS, an MCC is a large,
circular, long-lived cluster of showers and thunderstorms identified by satellite.
• Mesoscale convective vortex (MCV)—A low-pressure centre within an MCS that pulls
winds into a circling pattern, or vortex. With a core only 30 to 60 miles wide and 1 to 3
miles deep, an MCV is often overlooked in standard weather analyses.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 26
Thunderstorms most likely to occur
Thunderstorms can occur year-round and at all hours. But they are most likely to happen
in the spring and summer months and during the afternoon and evening hours. Along the Gulf
Coast and across the south eastern and western states, most thunderstorms occur during the
afternoon. Thunderstorms frequently occur in the late afternoon and at night in the Plains states.
Kinds of damages thunderstorm cause.
Many hazardous weather events are associated with thunderstorms. Under the right conditions,
rainfall from thunderstorms causes flash flooding, killing more people each year than hurricanes,
tornadoes or lightning. Strong (up to more than 120 mph) straight-line winds associated with
thunderstorms knock down trees, power lines and mobile homes. Tornadoes (with winds up to
about 300 mph) can destroy all but the best-built man-made structures.
Forecasting thunderstorms:
• Thunderstorms forecasting is very similar to the forecasting used to predict tornadoes.
• To forecast thunderstorms, meteorologist use a variety of data. Surface and upper air
observations are studied to find areas of low level moisture and instability and to
determine how winds aloft might influence storms development.
• Three times daily a severe weather outlook is issued on a nationwide basis indicating
whether conditions are either favorable or unfavorable for thunderstorms to develop in
specific regions of the United States.
Safety measures about thunderstorms:
• Have a storm safety kit handily you can make your kit at home with help from a grown
up.
• Stay inside during thunderstorms and blizzards
• Use flashlight instead of candle
• Don’t open the refrigerator to freezer unless you absolutely need to:
• Don’t play near portable generators or heaters:
• Stay away from damage or downed power lines:
After a Thunderstorm or Lightning Strike
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 27
• If lightning strikes you or someone you know, call 9-1-1 for medical assistance as soon as
possible. The following are things you should check when you attempt to give aid to a
victim of lightning:
• Breathing - if breathing has stopped, begin mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
• Heartbeat - if the heart has stopped, administer CPR.
• Pulse - if the victim has a pulse and is breathing, look for other possible injuries. Check
for burns where the lightning entered and left the body. Also be alert for nervous system
damage, broken bones and loss of hearing and eyesight.
e) DROUGHT
Drought can be agricultural, meteorological and ground water depletion. Chitradurga District is
frequently facing drought situation in the district due to scanty rainfall activities.
Drought is an extended period when a region receives a deficiency in its water supply,
whether atmospheric surface or ground water.
A drought can last for days ,months or years.
Generally, this occurs when a region receives consistently below average precipitation.
Periods of heat can significantly worsen drought conditions by hastening evaporation of
water vapour.
Many plant species, such as those in the family Cactaceae or cacti, have adaptations like
reduced leaf area and waxy cuticles to enhance their ability to tolerate drought.
Types of Drought
Drought is normally grouped by meterological, hydrological, agricultural, and
socioeconomic type.
Meteorological Drought
• Meteorological drought is defined usually on the basis of the degree of dryness (in
comparison to some “normal” or average amount) and the duration of the dry period
• since the atmospheric conditions that result in deficiencies of precipitation are highly
variable from region to region.
• This relate actual precipitation departures to average amounts on monthly, seasonal, or
annual time scales.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 28
Hydrological drought
• Hydrological droughts are associated with the effects of periods of precipitation shortfall
on surface or subsurface water supply (for example, stream flow, reservoir and lake
levels, and groundwater rather than with precipitation shortfalls
• Hydrological droughts usually lag the occurrence of meteorological and agricultural
droughts because more time elapses before precipitation deficiencies are detected in
reservoirs, groundwater, and other components of the hydrologic system.
• Water uses affected by drought can include purposes as varied as power generation, flood
control, irrigation, drinking water, industry, and recreation.
Agricultural Drought
Agriculture is usually the first economic sector to be affected by drought because soil
moisture content is often quickly depleted, especially if the period of moisture deficiency
is associated with high temperatures and windy conditions.
Agricultural drought links various characteristics of meteorological drought to
agricultural impacts, focusing on precipitation shortages,
Agricultural drought should account for the variable susceptibility of crops at different
stages of development
Socioeconomic drought
• Socioeconomic drought associates the supply and demand of some economic good or
service with elements of meteorological, hydrological, and agricultural drought.
• In socioeconomic drought, deficiencies of precipitation are linked directly to the supply
of some commodity or economic .Increases in population can alter substantially the
demand for these economic goods over time.
• The incidence of socioeconomic drought can increase because of a change in the
frequency of meteorological drought, a change in societal vulnerability to water
shortages, or both.
• Poor land-use practices such as overgrazing increase soil erosion, which exacerbates the
impacts and vulnerability to future droughts.
Causes of Drought
Rainfall or precipitation Deficiency
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 29
Human causes
Evapotranspiration
Global Warming
Effects of Drought
Drying of water bodies
Reduction in soil quality
Unsuitable conditions for plant and vegetation survival
Migration and even death of animals and wildlife
Impacts of drought
Drought affects all parts of our environment and our communities. The many different
drought impacts are often grouped as “economic,” “environmental,” and “social” impacts.
Economic Impacts
• Farmers may lose money if a drought destroys their crops.
• If a farmer's water supply is too low, the farmer may have to spend more money on
irrigation or to drill new wells.
• Ranchers may have to spend more money on feed and water for their animals.
• People who work in the timber industry may be affected when wildfires destroy stands of
timber.
• Businesses that sell boats and fishing equipment may not be able to sell some of their
goods because drought has dried up lakes and other water sources.
Environmental Impacts
Drought also affects the environment in many different ways. Plants and animals
depend on water, just like people. When a drought occurs, their food supply can shrink
and their habitat can be damaged
Losses or destruction of wildlife habitat
Lack of food and drinking water for wild animals
Increase in disease in wild animals, because of reduced food and water supplies
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 30
Migration of wildlife
Increased stress on endangered species or even extinction
Loss of wetlands
More wildfires
Wind and water erosion of soils
Poor soil quality
Social Impacts
Social impacts of drought are ways that drought affects people’s health and safety. Social
impacts include public safety, health, conflicts between people when there isn't enough water
to go around, and changes in lifestyle.
• Anxiety or depression about economic losses caused by drought
• Health problems related to low water flows and poor water quality
• Health problems related to dust
• Loss of human life
• Threat to public safety from an increased number of forest and range fires
• Reduced incomes
• People may have to move from farms into cities or from one city to another
• severe recreational activities.
Drought Protection, mitigation and relief
• Dams: many dams and their associated reservoirs supply additional water in times of
drought.
• Desalination: of sea water for irrigation or consumption.
• Land use: Carefully Planned crop rotation can help to minimize erosion and allow
farmers to plant less Water dependent crops in drier years.
Outdoor water: use Restriction- Regulating the use of sprinklers, hoses or buckets on
outdoor plants, filling pools, and other water intensive home maintenance tasks.
Xeriscaping yards can significantly reduce unnecessary water use by residents of towns
and cities.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 31
Rainwater harvesting: Collection and storage of rainwater from roofs or other suitable
catchments.
Recycled water: Former wastewater (sewage) that has been treated and purified for reuse.
Transvasement Building canals or redirecting rivers as massive attempts at irrigation in
drought-prone areas.
Prevention methods for Drought
• Proper monitoring of areas that are drought prone.
• Agriculture and irrigation patterns need a change
• Water transportation channels need to be properly maintained
• Check dams and other water storage mechanism need to be in place
• Filtration and purification processes should not waste water
• Population density need to be monitored migration needs a check
• Deforestation should be prevented
• Awareness about wasted water won’t come back easily
Measures to be taken before drought
• Check all plumbing for leaks and have any leaks repaired by a plumber.
• Check sprinkler systems and timing devices regularly to be sure they operate properly.
• Avoid over-fertilizing your lawn. Applying fertilizer increases the need for water.
• Use mulch to retain moisture in the soil.
• Plant native or drought –tolerant grasses, ground covers, shrubs and trees or small plants.
• Reduce use of sink disposals.
• Consider using rainwater collection systems to some domestic purposes.
Plan your irrigation
Irrigation is one way of supplementing water from rainfall and soil reserves, but can
waste large amounts of water if not used carefully. A key way of making the most of the water
supply is to only irrigate when necessary. Many people irrigate on a regular basis whether the
crop needs it or not. If water is scarce, irrigation should be restricted to the most critical periods
such as germination and fruit set. Drip irrigation makes much better use of water than overhead
systems as it is targeted to the roots rather than sprayed up into the air.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 32
CONTOUR FARMING
Contour farming refers to field activities such as ploughing and furrowing that are carried
out along contours rather than up and down the slope. They conserve water by reducing surface
run off and encouraging infiltration of water into the crop area.
Contour Ploughing
Ideally, any ploughing on a slope should be carried out along the contours rather than up
and down as this reduces run off and soil erosion and increases moisture retention. Contour
ploughing can be practiced on any slope with a gradient less than 10%. On steeper slopes it
should be combined with other measures such as terracing, bunds or strip cropping.
Contour Furrows
Contour furrows are small earthen banks that run along a contour. A furrow is dug next
to each bank on the upper side of the slope. The distance between the ridges varies between 1 - 2
m depending on the rainfall and the slope. The aim of contour furrows is to concentrate moisture
into the ridge and furrow area where the crops are planted by trapping run off water from the
catchment area between them. This also decreases the risk of erosion.
Bench Terraces
Terraces are made by creating ridges and furrows along contours on a slope. The ridges
hold back water and soil runoff and eventually turn the hillside into a number of terraces. These
can be stabilized by planting grasses or shrubs on them .
Grass Strips
Strips of grass (up to 1m wide) planted along a contour can reduce soil erosion and runoff.
Silt builds up in front of the strip and over time benches are formed. On gentle slopes the strips
should be widely spaced (20-30m apart), and on steeper slopes narrowly spaced (10-15m apart).
PLANTING PITS
Planting pits are a very simple form of freestanding water harvesting structure that are
easy to construct. They consist of small pits in which individual or small groups of plants are
sown. The pits catch run off and concentrate soil moisture around the roots. Normally the pits are
10-30 cm in diameter and 5 –15 cm deep and are spaced about 1 m apart.
EARTH BASINS
Earth basins are designed to collect and hold rainfall and are easy to construct by hand.
They are square or diamond shaped basins with earth ridges on all sides. Runoff water is
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 33
channeled to the lowest point and stored in an infiltration pit. The lowest point of the basin
might be located in one of the corners (on sloping land) or in the middle (on flat land). Earth
basins are usually used for fruit crops and the seedling is planted in or on the side of the
infiltration pit. The size of the basin depends on local rainfall and the water requirements of the
trees. They are larger on flat land and smaller on sloping land. They are usually 1-2 m long,
though sometimes basins of up to 30m are constructed.
SEMI-CIRCULAR BUNDS
Semi-circular bunds are earth bunds formed in U-shapes on a slope. The uppermost tips of
the U lie on a contour so that run off is collected in the lowest section of the U. A shallow pit is
sometimes also dug in this section to help concentrate moisture. Their size varies from small
structures (radius 2m) used for fruit trees or seedlings to very large structures (radius 30m) used
COVER CROPS/GREEN MANURES
Cover crops are grown to protect the soil from leaching, erosion and to improve soil
fertility. They build up organic matter in the soil, improve soil structure, suppress weed growth
and increase soil fertility through nitrogen fixation. They also, reduce fluctuations in temperature
and improve soil moisture. Legumes, such as beans and peas, or grasses are often used. They
cover the ground surface between a widely spaced perennial crop, such as young fruit trees,
coffee, cacao and oil palms or between rows of grain crops such as maize. Cover crops are often
combined with mulching for rangeland rehabilitation or fodder production.
MULCHING
Mulching means covering the soil between crop rows or around trees with a layer of
loose material such as dry grass, straw, crop residues, leaves, manure or compost. This helps to
retain soil moisture by limiting evaporation, suppressing weed growth and enhancing soil
structure, reducing runoff, protecting the soil from splash erosion and limiting the formation of
crust.

To avoid recurrences as far as possible, planning has to be done by concerned line Departments
like Drinking water, contingency plan, provide temporary water storage, afforestation, and soil
conservation. Also agricultural plan for district has to ensure drought renitent cropping pattern.
NOTE: The resources to combat, planning, equipments with various lines Departments have
been included in the annexure.
GEOLOGICALLY RELATED DISASTERS
i) Earthquakes
The Chitradurga district falls under the seismic zone II as per the earthquake vulnerability map
of India. Recently few minor tremors have been experienced in the districts and hence we need
to take precautionary measures for the safety of human habitat.
An earthquake is a sudden movement of earth's crust which lasts for a very short time. It
originates naturally at below the surface of the earth.
This energy can be built up and stored over a long time and then released in
seconds or minutes. Strain on the rocks results in more elastic energy being stored which leads to
far greater possibility of an earthquake event.
Seismic waves
Seismic waves are generated when the large amount of energy is released due to the
accumulated strain in the fault along the plate boundaries.
Types of seismic waves
• Body waves
• Surface waves
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 35
BODY WAVES
Body waves are of two types:
• Compressional or primary (P) waves
• Shear or secondary (S) waves
Primary or P-wave: Primary Wave or P-wave is a longitudinal wave. P-wave is the fastest
amongst all seismic waves. It can move through solid rock and fluid layers of the Earth. It pushes
and pulls the medium as it moves through it just like sound waves push and pull the air. Primary
waves are also called as compressional waves, are the faster than others.
P-waves travel fastest, at speeds between 4–8 km/sec (14,000–28,000 km/h) in the Earth's crust.
Secondary or S-wave:
The second type of body wave is the S-wave or secondary wave which transverse in nature. An
S-wave is slower than a P wave and can only move through solid medium.
S-waves travel more slowly, usually at 2.5–4 km/sec (9000–14,000 km/h).
SURFACE WAVES
Surface waves, in contrast to body waves can only move along the surface. They cause the most
surface destruction. Surface waves are generally not generated by deep earthquakes.
Earthquake surface waves are divided into two different categories:
• Love Wave
• Rayleigh Wave
Love Wave:
The first kind of surface wave is called a Love wave; It is the fastest surface wave and
moves the ground from side-to-sideLove waves have a particle motion, which, like the S-wave,
is transverse to the direction of propagation but with no vertical motion. Love waves cause the
most damage to structures.
Rayleigh Wave:
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 36
A Rayleigh wave rolls along the ground just like a wave that rolls across a lake or an ocean. Due
to its rolling movement this wave moves the ground up and down and side-to-side in the same
direction. Most of the shaking felt in an earthquake is due to the Rayleigh wave.
CLASSIFICATION OF EARTHQUAKE:
Earthquakes are usually classified on the following bases:
(a) Cause of origin;
(b) Depth of focus; and
(c) Intensity and magnitude of earthquake.
(a) Cause of Origin:
On the basis of the causes of earthquake, they are classified as:- (i) Tectonic and (ii)
Non-tectonic earthquakes. The non-tectonic earthquakes are mainly of three types due to surface
causes, volcanic causes and collapse of cavity roofs. The non-tectonic earthquakes due Volcanic
to surface causes Earthquakes.
(b) Depth of focus:
As we know, the instrument to detect seismic waves is called seismometer and the
seismograph is a seismometer to record the earth vibration. On the basis of the depth of focus,
earthquakes are classified as:
(i) Surface-earthquakes- less than 10,000 meters
(ii) Shallow-focus earthquakes- 10 to 50 kms
(iii) Intermediate-focus earthquakes- depth of 50 to 300 Kms.
(iv) Deep-focus earthquakes- 500 and 700 kms.
(C) Magnitude and Intensity of Earthquake:
Magnitude:
It is a measure of the size of the earthquake or the energy released.
Intensity:
The intensity at a point depends upon the magnitude, distance from the epicenter and
local conditions etc.
SEISMOLOGY & MEASUREMENT
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 37
Seismology
As we have seen, most earthquakes are essentially the product of tectonic stresses which are
generated at the boundaries of the Earth's tectonic plates.
Seismographs are the instruments which record earthquakes. Scientists use these instruments as
their principal tool to study seismic waves. They are very sensitive instruments that can detect,
measure and record ground vibrations and their intensities during an earthquake.
A seismograph is a simple pendulum. As the ground shakes the base and frame move with the
vibrations but inertia keeps the pendulum bob in place. It moves relative to vibrating ground. The
pendulum displacement records the changes over time the tracing out the record of the event is
called a seismogram.
EFECTS OF AN EARTHQUAKE
Earthquake produces various damaging effect in the areas the act upon. The lists of some of the
main effects caused by earthquakes are given below:
Landslides
Fires
Shaking and ground rupture
Soil liquefaction
Floods
Faulting and Ground Rupture
Damage to man-made structures
PREDICTION OF EARTHQUAKE
We now know about the causes of an earthquake. But to predict when, and where, the next
earthquake might occur is a very difficult task. Use instruments such as seismometers to find out
the sources of seismic waves.
PROTECTION AGAINST EARTHQUAKE
The earthquake strike suddenly, violently without warning at any time of the day or night.
All the building in seismic zones need be designed so that they can withstand major
tremors. It is advisable to make the structure simple so that it is 'Quake Safe'.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 38
Since some building may catch fire, it is necessary that all the building have their fire
fighting equipment in order.
Safer places indoors, as well as outdoors, must be clearly identified.
An emergency communication plan should be made available.
Disaster management supplies (like flashlights, first aid box etc.) should be available on
hand.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS DURING EARTHQUAKE
For a person present inside of a building:
1. Take shelter under a table and stay there till the shaking stops.
2. Stay away from tall and heavy objects that may fall on you.
3. Do not get up, if you are in bed. Protect your head with pillows.
4. Stay indoor until shaking stops and it is safe to move outside. Most of injuries occur when
people, inside the building, attempts to move to a different location within the building or try to
leave it.

ii) Landslide and Mud flows:
These occur due to sudden heavy rains, causing damages to roads, buildings, bridges,
communication network, agricultural lands forests, etc., This is common in hilly regions and has
never been reported to Chitradurga district.
Causes for Landslide
Weakness in the composition, material or geological structure of rock or soil formation.

Natural factors.
Intense rainfall or deposition of snow will raise the ground water table; decrease the soil
strength and increases weight of associated material.
Rapid snowmelt in mountains- rapid melting of snow adds water to soil mass on slopes.
Fluctuation of water levels due to the tidal action
Lowering of the water levels in rivers, reservoirs, etc.
Erosion caused by continuous runoff over a slope
Deposition of loose sediments in delta areas.
Decomposition of rocks.
Ground vibrations created during Earthquakes .
LOSSES DUE TO LANDSLIDES:
Landslides result in both direct and indirect losses in several ways.
1 Direct loss:
• Loss of life: Landslides can result in death and injury of people and animals. The moving
mass can bury people and animals under debris.
• Loss of property and assets: The force and speed of debris, mud or earth mass generated
due to mass movement may destroy houses, buildings and other properties on its way.
• Loss of infrastructure and lifeline facilities: Earth mass can block or damage
infrastructures such as roads, railway, bridges, telecommunication, electrical supply lines,
etc.
• Loss of Resources: Earth mass can effect water recourses in the area by blocking rivers,
diverting water ways, blocking irrigation channels, reducing storage capacity of tanks,
reservoirs, ponds, etc. it can cause production losses to open cast mines, rock quarries,
etc.
• Loss of farmland: Productive land area may be covered with debris or blocked from
access.
• Loss of places of cultural importance.
2 Indirect loss:
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 42
• Loss in productivity of agricultural or forest lands: Due to being buried by debris, lack of
access or being under flood.
• Reduced property values: Due to unwillingness of people to purchase disaster prone land.
• Loss of revenue: Due to loss of productivity, transport breakdown, etc.
• Increased cost: Due to investments in preventing or mitigating future landslide damage.
• Adverse effect on water quality: Occur in water storage facilities such as streams,
reservoirs, storage tanks etc.
• Secondary physical effects: Such as flooding which in turn generates both direct and
indirect costs.
• Loss of human productivity: Due to death and injury.
• Reduction in quality of life: Due to the deaths of family members and the destruction of
personal belongings, this may also have great sentimental value.
Control measures of Landslide.
Try to protect the slopes. Prevent people from excavating, removing materials from the
soil or cutting trees without proper advice from specialized institutions such as National
Building Research Organization (NBRO).
Replant trees where they have been removed on slopes and slope base to prevent erosion.
When constructing on a slope, use a design that suits the natural slope. This will also
save on the cost of construction.
Prepare the ground, so that, it cascades parallel to the natural contours of the slope. Do
not remove vegetation and large trees while constructing.
Do not obstruct natural streams or drainage paths during construction. Direct the surface
water from your land towards the natural galley enabling water to quickly drain away
from the slope.
Removal and replacement: Landslide-prone soil and rock can be removed and replaced
with stronger materials, such as silty or sandy soils.
Preserving vegetation: Trees, grasses, and vegetation can minimize the amount of water
infiltrating into the soil, slow the erosion caused by surface-water flow, and remove water
from the soil.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 43
iii) Dam Burst
In Chitradurga District, though there are no big dams. But there are reservoirs with mud dams,
out of which a few are weak and cannot withstand sudden gushing of water. There have been
identified and would be kept under watch during rain season. District administration, including
concerned off-site disaster management team like PHE, PWD, and other concerned Department
have to take preventive actions, and all safety measure including alerting, evacuation from
downstream, rescuing, medicinal treatment.
Chemical and Industrial disaster
In Chitradurga District there are 20 Medium and Large scale industries. Deputy Environmental
Officer generally takes stock of situation of Pollution if at all created by these industries.
Karnataka State Pollution Control Board regulation on air, water, pollution Preventive Acts will
be followed. Among these, Inspector of Factories has identified 8 major industries susceptible
for hazardous. The following actions are need for effective management.
a) District Administration / Home — Identification of hazardous major industries, guards /
Deputy Environmental Officer, safety equipment and gadgets; training of KSPCB / Inspector of
Factories / personnel to act on during disaster: Mock District Industries Centre / NGOs drill, etc.
Accident Related Disasters
i) Fire (Urban / Village / Forest / Electrical)
FIRE Accidents are classified under man-made disasters. This can occur at Urban / Village /
Forest area and sometime this may be due to electrical disaster. Accident due to fire leads to
generation of high intensity of heat, smoke, toxic and noxious fumes, explosion, building
collapse, disruption of essential service.
In Chitradurga District Fire fighting Department play vital role in extinguishing fire in accidents.
District Administration / Police / Home Guards / Health Department jointly put efforts in
controlling fire disasters.
Forest fire occurs in summer wherein the ambient temperature is on higher side and dried leaves,
fallen trees are prone for fire. Generally Forest Department would put controlled fire in the
pockets of forest area where dried leaves are prone to catch fire in hot summer, which will
prevent spreading on one side and left out leaves in hot summer, otherwise may create problem.
While controlling or extinguishing forest fire, the Department do take help of villagers.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 44
Prevention, Detection and control are the important principle forest fire control. Till know no
scientific and systematic method of fire control is followed mainly due to lack of infrastructure.
However, with the help of surrounding villagers, the local staff of the Department extinguishes
the fire whenever fire is noticed. In sensitive areas, fire watchers and fire tracing works like
cutting of fire lines and burning them in advance are followed mainly to avoid accidental fires as
preventive measures. At strategic points 12 watch towers are constructed in the forest area to
detect the forest fire. Besides 34 Wireless sets both mobile and static including Walkie Talkie are
provided to the staff for quick communication of fire occurrence so that the affected area could
be reached without spending much time to suppress the fire.
General Measures:
All the fire prone forest areas of the District should be identified and a map of fire prone
area should be prepared.
Database on forest fires should be compiled and analysis of statistics on fire damage
should be done every year and reported.
Fire Damage Rating System and Forest Fire Forecasting System should be prepared with
the help of National Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasting of Department of
Science & Technology, Lodhi Road, New Delhi.
The services of Ex-servicemen could be utilised and they can be appointed as Fire
Warden in Divisions / Ranges on payment of honorarium.
The item of forest protection should be treated as a Plan item so that it get more attention
and more allocation of budget.
Specific measures
Following specific measures may be undertaken for prevention and control of forest fire.
All the preventive measures should be taken in advance before fire season starts. Fire
lines should be cleared in time, fire-watchers should be employed and other
precautionary measures as per the site requirement should be undertaken.
A crisis group of Division level under the Deputy Commissioner’s Chairmanship with
DFO as Secretary with prominent local, social and political leaders and other Officers of
the Department such as Police, Revenue, Fire Station, etc is constituted for effective co-
ordination and control. The crisis group would mobilise all the Government and Non-
Government Officials and other material resources for prevention and control of forest
fire.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 45
Communication network should be set up for quick flow of information and movement of
men and material to the fire site.
The forest staff available in other wings should be specially placed under the disposal of
territorial division during the fire season.
The concerned authorities of the other Departments may be apprised in advance and their
co-operation may be sought in dealing with any eventuality.
Special steps should be taken to prevent fires in timber depots. Fire extinguishers and
water should be kept ready for use in case of any eventuality.
Village Forest Committees should be actively involved in prevention and control of forest
fires. Other people living in and around the forest areas and getting benefits from the
forest should also be actively involved.
The communities and Government staff should be regularly trained for prevention and
control of forest fires.
Efforts should be made to create public awareness against the ill-effects of forest fires. A
Fire Week should be celebrated to create mass awareness.
Legal Measures:
Provisions of the Karnataka Forest Act, 1963 regarding forest fires i.e. Section 24(b) and (c)
should be strictly implemented. A specific Circular may be issued by the State Government
regarding mobilisation and human and material resources like man-power, vehicles etc., in case
of forest fires. In order to make an impact at Field level, the guidelines may be translated in local
languages and Circulated to the Field staff.
The infrastructure available at Forest and Fire Extinguishing Department has been given in the
Annexure.
Electrical Fire can occur at residence due to short-circuit, faulty electrical appliances. This may
occur at transmission point due to failure of circuit breakers or failure of Control equipments.
This may occur at industrial establishment also.
Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation have elaborated the infrastructure, men power, etc.,
as detailed in the Annexure.
ii) Bomb Blast
Serial Bomb Blast disasters have recently occurred at Mumbai and other places. However Bomb
Blast explosive disasters, fireworks disaster may take place anywhere. Off-site disaster
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 46
Management Committee in the District shall take precautionary measures and rescue operation
on post disaster situation.
iii) Festival Related Disasters
Stampede, epidemic, fire disasters may take place during festivals. The main reasons for this
type of disaster and inadequate facilities like drinking water, shelter, poor crowd management,
unsafe electrical application, food poisoning also occur due to contamination in food, poor
quality of vessel.
District Administration along with concerned Department will be jointly responsible in
controlling the disasters.
iv) Rail, Road Accidents
Chitradurga is connected with National Highway No. 4 and 13 know of main road and taken
national highways are there in the district. As such there is always heavy traffic. The road
accidents for these days have also increases. The impact of these accidents includes loss of lives,
injuries, disruption of traffic movement.
Road Transport Department will have to identify faulty vehicle and ban such vehicle plying on
road the Off-site Disaster Management Committee will combat with the situation of disaster.
TRO will also enforce driving discipline and control once loading highway petrol has been set up
to ensure emergency response, for road accidents / disasters.
v) Others
Building Collapses / Miscellaneous like Communal clashes due to poor quality of construction,
materials in buildings particularly multistoried, short-circuit in electrical installation, gas leakage
etc. Building and structures may also collapse due to earthquake tremors.
In Chitradurga District building collapse have happened due to untimely heavy rains. Further,
passenger bus plunging into water tank, due to non-availability of divers, the disasters was found
very serious. Perhaps, absence of proper management, overcrowding of passengers in transport
vehicles are root cause and inspection of vehicles for road worthiness may reduce such disaster.
Police Department has identified some of the sensitive area which is vulnerable for communal
clashes, so as to establish immediate peace to control the situation.
5.5 Biological Disasters and Epidemics
The living micro organism like bacteria, virus fungus, etc can cause biological disaster. Most
commonly contaminated water spreads such epidemics, communicable disease. Health
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 47
Department play vital role in establishing preventive measures, combating post-disaster. The
detail of the Department has been given in the Annexure. Pest attach on crops is major concern,
affecting both Agriculture and horticulture crops. Recently mosquito menace was found on
coconut trees, causing lot of losses to cultivators. Horticulture Department has put lot of effects
combating the menace.
Cattle epidemics are also of concern. For example cross breeds are susceptible for contain
disease which cause devastating affect not only in farm but also in the region. Animal Husbandry
and Veterinary Science Department will take all out preventive measures in controlling live-
stock viral diseases.
Vulnerability and Risk Assessment
Past history reveals that Chitradurga district is less prone to natural disasters. There are instances
of many man-made disasters such as strikes and incidents of fire and burning of buses and
vehicles at the time of strikes, Road accidents are common. A few rail accidents have taken
places.

The district had never experienced any earthquake expect minor tremors from time to time. Since the district falls under seismic zone II, i.e., less risk zones, the possibility & can never be ruled out as it can happen any time.Drought may occur due to want of rain at proper time. Or sometimes heavy rainfall may damage
the crops.
Cyclonic effect in the eastern coast and Bay of Bengal may cause excessive rainfall which would
result in crop damage and other loss.
Fire accidents and incidents such as strikes, burning of vehicles are frequently happening in the
district particularly fire accident occurs during the summer season.

taking up relief measures.
Structural Mitigation measures:
Structural damage, collapse of buildings or infrastructure are common consequences of
disasters, including earthquakes, floods, and landslides. Structural mitigation aims to reduce this
damage and eventually save lives. Structural mitigation is a science that requires the expertise of
civil engineers. It includes both the design of new buildings, roads, canals, dams, and other
infrastructure and the strengthening and retrofitting of old structures. It is most important to
ensure good maintenance as poor maintenance is often the cause of indirect damage.
Engineered Structures: These are structures which are designed and constructed by qualified
architects, engineers and masons. Disaster resistant construction is achieved by
Assessing the natural hazards in the area.
Planning structural measures to resist such forces
Locating buildings in a safe place
Construction with suitable material in right mix.
Construction under trained masons, engineers and architects.
Construction as per prevailing building bye laws.
Non Engineered Structures: These are constructions by owners using readily available masons
turned contractors. There is a need to train masons even for constructing traditionally designed
non engineered structure.
Non-Structural Mitigation measures:
And Non-Structural mitigation refers to the police, knowledge development, public commitment,
and methods and operating practices, including participatory mechanism and the provision of
information, which can reduce risk with related impacts.
Chitradurga District Disaster Management Plan 60
Many kinds of non-structural mitigation measures can be very cost effective in including risk.
Examples including regulations that dictate activities can or cannot undertaken, dependent on
certain critical indicators; for example, flood barriers and avalanches warning signs can
temporarily restrict people from entering areas when the risk is above an admissible level.
Legal Framework: Making State Disaster Management laws to prevent illegal constructions and
take legal action against defaulters.
Land Use Planning: Control of human activities including infrastructures in the hazard prone
areas, to avoid loss of human lives and property.
Incentives and Financial Framework: Government grants subsidies for people who include
mitigation measures in the buildings. Insurance companies can offer discounts on premiums for
buildings, which are disaster resistant. Banks can offer easy loans for retrofitting and
constructing new disaster resistant buildings. Government can also give tax exemptions for
money spent on constructing disaster resistant houses / structures or retrofitting
Training-and Education: Providing awareness and know how to Government officials involved
in disaster management, in construction (engineers, architects, masons etc.) craftsmen, land use
planners and the community encouraging mitigation.
Public Awareness:
A good public knowledge and understanding of hazards and vulnerabilities.
Effective mitigation measures.
