India has been traditionally vulnerable to earthquakes, floods, droughts, cyclones etc.
Almost 60% of the land is prone to earthquakes.
There is significant gap in the preparatory measure because there is no systematic disaster management in India.
Early warning system, lack of pre-preparedness, inadequate and slow relief, lack of coordination and slow rehabilitation and reconstruction are some of the factors which affect the relief measures during natural disaster.
