Neighborhood Level Multi-peril Planning for Regular and Synthetic Dangers: A Contextual investigation of Chittagong Division

Jagan Kante

Abstract


Dangers like tornado, storm flood, flood, dry season, avalanche, building breakdown, fire and so forth repetitively happen in Bangladesh because of its locational drawbacks and public obliviousness in regards to effects of risks. In this review, multi peril appraisal has been led and in view of this outcome multi risk zones have been outlined for Chittagong division of Bangladesh if there should be an occurrence of 2013. Here the Chittagong division was chosen as study region because of its topographical weak area and seeing circumstance at various perils. The year 2013 has been considered as the review period due to event of repetitive and different sorts of risks at Chittagong division in a solitary period as per information. Evaluation and drafting has been led independently both for normal and artificial dangers as a result of their various qualities. All things considered, Chittagong division is gone after by various dangers like tornado, flood, avalanches, fire and so on practically in each year. It has been seen from the review that Chittagong locale is the most vulnerable region in view of different sorts of risks. This area is powerless for both regular and artificial risks. Noakhali region is likewise in a weak state if there should be an occurrence of regular risks. Explicit approaches for explicit areas might work on the situation. This sort of risk evaluation ought to be consolidated in nearby level preparation to foster local area flexibility and variation.
