Answers
Answer:
Read the passage given below.
"Hazards are natural, Disasters are not.' Hazards such as llouds and earthquakes become
disasters when society lacks the ability to cope with them. Children have the right to be both safe
and secure in school and to be assured of educational continuity, even in the face of disasters and
emergencies. We send our children to the school to get educated, and till a few decades ago, we did
* not have to dwell too much on the safety of our children in the schools; we took it for granted, for
the school was always synonymous with the word 'safe'. Unfortunately, it is no longer the case.
2. From natural calamities to the man-made ones, from the negligence of man to the beast like action
of man, our children are no longer safe in school. Some of these disasters could have been avertec
by simple prevention and preparedness. We, as parents, must make certain that we are aware of
the norms and regulations that a school must follow, and keep a vigil on their compliance.
3. The terror attacks on schools should jolt the parents of school-going children in India out of their
complacency, and they should become more aware. Creating a safe environment for the children
in school is the most important task, as in the case of any emergency they are the most vulnerable,
4. National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) of the Ministry of Home Affairs, strongly feels
that there has to be a structural as well as non-structural interventions to ensure the safety of the
children. Structural interventions would include strict check on the guidelines set up for school
buildings, while non-structural would mean educating the staff, teachers and students aboui
disaster management. The Ministry insists that every school must adopt a school safety
programme targeting the educational institutions, emergency officials, teachers,
students and even the community at large. Under this programme, the students learn
about safety measures, thus becoming future disaster managers, while a disaster
resilient society is built by way of educating the community.
5. With terror attacks on schools all over the world, India should also prepare itself for
any such eventualities. The schools must take necessary precautions against entry of
unkne n individuals to schools by issuing an identity card even for the parents.
Secu y checks should be strict. The students may be given some tips as to how to
beh in a hostage situation by professional counsellors.
