Abstract
Because of its rough terrain and climate, Uttarakhand, an Indian state that is tucked away in the Himalayan area, is vulnerable to a variety of natural calamities. The infrastructure and people of the area are particularly at risk from earthquakes, landslides, and flash floods. The cities of Joshimath and Kedarnath, which have recently experienced terrible effects from natural disasters, are the subject of this case study. The study looks at the reaction and preparation systems put in place in Joshimath and Kedarnath to lessen the effects of natural disasters. It looks into how effective early warning systems, evacuation strategies, resilient infrastructure, community involvement, and government actions are in lowering vulnerability and raising resilience. The study evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of the current disaster management systems using a combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis, including surveys, interviews, and field observations. It emphasizes the essential elements of effective disaster preparedness and response, including proactive planning, stakeholder cooperation, infrastructure investment, and public awareness initiatives.
