Discuss the role of disaster preparedness and inter-state coordination in mitigating the impact of cyclones like Montha on coastal regions of India.
Tips for your answer
- Start with context: Begin by briefly describing Cyclone Montha and the recurring nature of cyclones in India’s east coast — setting the stage for why disaster preparedness is crucial.
- Use structure and examples: In the body, divide your answer into parts — preparedness (early warning, evacuation, shelters), response (NDRF, SDRF, coordination), and recovery (relief, compensation). Use Montha or past examples like Cyclone Fani or Hudhud for illustration.
- End with future focus: Conclude with suggestions — strengthening coastal infrastructure, improving inter-state coordination, community participation, and using technology for real-time alerts.
