Disaster management plans in India place significant emphasis on prevention and mitigation to reduce the impact of natural disasters. The measures taken by the disaster management team include:

• Identification and mapping of disaster-prone areas to assess vulnerability and develop targeted mitigation strategies.
• Strict enforcement of building codes and regulations to ensure construction of resilient and disaster-resistant infrastructure.
• Establishment of early warning systems to provide timely information and alerts about impending disasters to vulnerable communities.
• Implementation of flood control measures such as construction of flood embankments, river training, and watershed management to reduce flood-induced damage.
• Regular maintenance of dams, reservoirs, and other water-related infrastructure to prevent flooding and ensure efficient water flow.
• Promotion of afforestation and landscape management to prevent soil erosion, landslides, and reduce the impact of disasters like cyclones.
• Community awareness and capacity-building programs to educate individuals about disaster preparedness, response, and evacuation procedures.

These measures aim to minimize the loss of life, protect livelihoods, and promote resilience in the face of natural disasters.
