The Indian government has taken several measures to deal with natural disasters. Here are a few steps taken by the Indian government and the challenges faced in their implementation:

• The government has set up the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and State Disaster Management Authorities (SDMAs) to manage natural disasters effectively.
• The government has established early warning systems to alert people about potential disasters. For example, India Meteorological Department (IMD) provides weather forecasts and updates.
• The government has launched various schemes and initiatives such as the National Cyclone Risk Mitigation Project and the National Flood Control Programme to mitigate the risks caused by disasters.
• The government is also involved in the rescue and relief operations during disasters. For instance, the Indian Army and National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) are involved in the rescue operations during floods and earthquakes.

However, certain challenges hinder the effective implementation of these measures. There are issues such as inadequate funding, lack of coordinated action, insufficient preparedness, and poor infrastructure. Additionally, climate change has made predicting and managing natural disasters even more challenging.
