CONCLUSION:  The Government of India over the years formulated strategies to cope with, prevent and mitigate disasters because of the frequency of disasters affecting the country . These policies consist of long and short term prevention and preparedness measures and immediate response mechanisms. They also include appropriate administrative structures to manage disaster response, financial systems to fund and facilitate them, the mechanisms to ensure that policies and strategies are continuously reviewed and revised in the light of experiences within the country and in other parts of the world. We, as teachers as responsible citizens of our country should be a part and parcel of the disaster preparedness drive taken up in the country.
