Introduction
The disaster risk reduction plan of Puri districts contains ongoing coping mechanisms to
reduce the disaster risk in long term with special focus on climate induced disasters.
Frequencies of climate induced disasters are increasing every year. Government of Odisha
with several other agencies has initiated several risk reduction programs to tackle these
disasters. The risk reduction plan of Puri district is prepared after consultation with key line
departments. First section of the plan, ‘Climate change action plan’ describes the impacts and
actions taken up by key line departments to minimize adverse impact. Rise in temperature,
increase in frequency of storms, flash floods and drought is observed every year in different
part of the district.
The plan lists major developmental programs and schemes with relative DRR-CCA
component. The benefit of each scheme/program, its relevance to DRR-CCA and possible
actions are listed in a table. Linking developmental plans with DRR-CCA needs long term
strategy with involvement of multiple stake holders. This plan gives us an idea on how to link
disaster management plan with development.

Jeebika - Orissa Rural
Livelihood Programme:
Watershed Development
– A Means to a Better
Livelihood
Its activity regime broadly
addresses the following-
- Interventions to address
quality of life such as
preventive health
measures, sanitation,
drinking water, and food
security

building, community
mobilisation, community
development and
livelihood promotion
through deployment of
revolving funds and
grants.
- Disaster preparedness
focusing on WASH
- Post disaster livelihood
recovery
- Capacity building of
community on resilient
livelihood options
- Livelihood promotion activities should be
selected based on local level climate and disaster
risk assessment
- The component of climate change and disaster
resilient capital creation can be taken up. e.g.,
practices that can withstand future climatic
extreme events such as high speed cyclones,
extreme floods
- Improvement of WASH through awareness,
resilient infrastructure like raised toilets, hand
pumps can be focussed during design and
implementation of project activities
- Integrating livelihood and weather index based
insurance with livelihood options for greater
adaptation. e.g. if tailioring is promoted as non-
farm based livelihood, the tool such as the
sewing machine, the tailoring centre
(Infrastructure) must be insured against climatic
extreme events

enabling the distribution
system improvement,
establishment of a reliable
system, reduction of Aggregate
Technical and Commercial
(AT&C) loss to a sustainable
level and improvement of

Gopabandhu Gramin
Yojana: Bijli, Sadak and
Pani for Coastal Districts
The Scheme envisages to
provide essential infrastructure
like road, electricity and water
for coastal areas
- Disaster Resilient Roads
- Portable water for
emergencies
- Electricity connection in
vulnerable communities
- Speedy recovery after
disaster
- The roads must be assessed for future climatic
extremes and should be location wise designed to be
resilient. The same applies to the other two sectors.
The integration can be done from design to
implementation, monitoring and evaluation that the
infratructure is created maintained keeping in mind
future possibilities and rising frequency and
magnitude of extremes.
- A life cycle analysis based on (probable life of the
infratucture and expected future climatic extreme
events) history of extremes and climatic projections

can ensure resilient design, construction and
maintenance. For this capacity building of planners,
contractors and engineers on themes such as,
assessment of climate and disaster risks, resilient
designs, monitoring and evaluation will be required

objectives:
- Reduction in vehicle
operating cost on the
project corridor
- Increase in vehicle speed
to reduce travel time
- Improvement in Road User
Satisfaction Index

and climatic projection for specified project
location
- Use of less polluting and sustainable materials
10
Biju Setu Yojana:
Bridging Connectivity
Gaps for Rural People

over them and provide
reasonable approach roads for
establishing instant road
connectivity. The scheme also
provides an opportunity for
construction of major bridges
on PS roads.
- Flood and cyclone resilient
construction of bridges
- Ensuring durability and
connectivity
- Bridges must take into consideration projected
changes in water resources due to changes in
rainfall pattern in the project location
- The Designs must be made based on analysis of
past and projected trends in rainfall and behavior
of water the particular water in past and
projected in future. The design should be
reflective of worst case scenario
Mission Shakti: The various components of - Livelihood diversification - Capacity building of women on adaptation and
