Business As Usual will not workDr. P. K. Mishra in his remarks stressed that Business As Usual will not work. There is a steady paradigm shift from relief and response centric approach to mitigation, adaptation and preparedness. India is a signatory of Sendai Framework which has identified investment in resilience as one of its four priorities, he added. He further said that funds given by earlier Finance Commissions had ensured a predictable way of financing post disaster relief and response works.

State and districts are at the front line of innovations related to disaster resilience activities. It was also urged that XV FC should look into it whether the funds with the states are adequate. Striking a balance between funds availability to both NDRF and SDRF is important.

Few imp points out of the presentations:
Few imp points out of the presentations:1. We need a credible data system that is publicly available.
2. Effective safety nets need to be included so as to speed up the ability to move money quickly into the hands of victims of droughts, floods etc.
3. Centre-state matching grants to prepare for the resilience should be made available.
4. A Hazard Risk index can be developed and the vulnerability score of the state can be measured. Parameters of the index should include Hazard Profile of the state and Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) of the state.
The Workshop is being organised in the context of increasing frequency and severity of disasters .
The Finance Commission is responsible for advising the Government on the nature and form of Grants-in-Aid to the State.
Disaster Relief is one of the major purposes for which grants are provided to the states .
Disaster Management financing is increasingly taking up a larger percentage of grants due to the rising frequency and intensity of disasters every year.
