I've also experienced the Gujarat earthquake. It really shook me up (pardon the pun). I went to the website of the Gujarat State Disaster Management Authority - and read up on the precautions that people can take and protect themselves at the time of earthquake. And I practiced those for as long as I lived in Ahmedabad. I would suggest that people also try reading up the information on the site of National Disaster Management Authority. Thanks again. Your post was very refreshing.Deepahttp://deepalifeandtimes.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021738822692225370.post-88653716431160973222011-03-29T17:05:41.375+05:302011-03-29T17:05:41.375+05:30Disaster management fortunately getting awareness ...Disaster management fortunately getting awareness in education and among masses and it is a thing to be reminded again and again.Arpanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15603562370220704187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021738822692225370.post-40641940508630544422011-03-28T14:49:03.051+05:302011-03-28T14:49:03.051+05:30Thanks for the overwhelming response, dear blogger...Thanks for the overwhelming response, dear blogger pals..<br /><br />I shall be replying to all individually, soon.<br /><br />thanks.<br /><br />RESTLESSA Restless Mind With A Sensitive Heart!https://www.blogger.com/profile/15235186296193977056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021738822692225370.post-75069008803338672792011-03-27T13:22:43.037+05:302011-03-27T13:22:43.037+05:30Restless,

Floods is a recurring feature but still we lack proper preparedness or precautions. Bhopal tragedy is another example and still we hear of gas leaks here & there.

THE CALM-Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.<br />2. THE DIGNITY-Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.<br />3. THE ABILITY-The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn’t fall.<br /><br />4. THE GRACE<br /><br />People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.<br />5. THE ORDER-No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.<br />6. THE SACRIFICE-Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?<br />7. THE TENDERNESS-Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.<br />8. THE TRAINING-The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.<br />9. THE MEDIA-They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.<br />10. THE CONSCIENCE-When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly!S.R.Ayyangarhttp://srayyangar.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021738822692225370.post-65662302767340522242011-03-27T04:53:26.589+05:302011-03-27T04:53:26.589+05:30Unless we are hit by a disaster, we will not under...Unless we are hit by a disaster, we will not understand the importance of learning and being precautious!!<br />This is a good eye opener on the subject RS!!Anuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824164089499448242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2021738822692225370.post-25360849202810256212011-03-26T22:50:47.300+05:302011-03-26T22:50:47.300+05:30Thanks Restless.
