| Summary, etc. |
Disasters have several connotations in addition to natural calamities. Disaster in this article refers not only to explosion of natural calamities like landslide, flood, earthquake etc. but to man-made damages resulting from faulty decisions, mis-conceived policies and ill-prepared plans and programmes of our politicians, bureaucrats and technocrats. It has been observed that human induced disasters are positively co-related with the incompetence of leaders in any decisions making body. The aim of this article is to examine various types of disasters including man-made ones and to arrive at a decision that leaders, politicians, bureaucrats, technocrats working both at the national and global level have a responsibility in managing disasters through proper plan and policy formulation. - Reproduced. |
