Mitigation measures can help in effective disaster management during cyclones. They are as follows:
• Helipads should be constructed at regular intervals through highways and roads built in BOT mode
• Helipads should be along highways; sites for air landing should also be available for vulnerable locations such as schools, playgrounds and so on
• Support should be provided to amateur radio volunteers at normal times so that they can effectively handle the cyclone
• Maintenance of embankments should be crafted with fine workmanship to mitigate flooding risk during cyclones
• Incentivising measure should be there to reward states for disaster preparedness
• Call for zero casualty should not encourage suppression of data
• Long term mitigation measures should also be in place in district plans
• In coastal towns and cities, building rules need to be revisited and structural safety is a must; cyclone resilient structures must be constructed
• Infrastructure in vulnerable areas such as roads, public buildings, bridges, communication systems and key infrastructure such as airports and hospitals must be resilient to cyclones
• Ageing test and assessment of retrofitting requirements should be mandatory for major city buildings beyond 15 to 20 years old
• Coastal Regulation Zone norms should be strictly enforced
• Coastal Zone Regulatory Authority should be created under central auspices with state counterpart organisations covering the entire coastline of the country for management of marine resources and reserve forests
• Planning as well as balancing of the coastal vegetation and green cover should be taken up
• Suitable guidelines should be framed by states for construction of hoardings
• Evacuation routes in disaster management plans should be delineated prior to onset of monsoons
• Telecom systems need to be robust wherein coastal mobile towers must be able to bear winds at speeds of 250 km/hr
• Alternative channels of communications should be set up including VF/HUF sets, satellite phones, radio, community radio, internet and loud speakers for communication during the crisis
• Underground power cable and utility lines should also be planned in a manner that they are functional and financially viable
• Last mile connectivity must be ensured
• Comprehensive state insurance cover needs to be provided for persons, their properties and cattle
