India can manage flood situation on its own says UN

yes india can manage flood situation at its own.india can manage such dasasters but it needs a strong will and honesty in implmentation of relief measures . These two points honesty in implmentation and strong will power can make the way to sucess. 

Sarika has rightly ponited out the deficiency of our focus on way of utilisation of Basic necessity food,I would like to add one more point to that we have to shun right now at the initial stage the imminent dependency on Genitically Modified Agricultural products else Our back bone(Agriculture) will Break never to stand up again.

I agree with this point. Our country can handle fooding of its citizens alone. If we stop depending on junk foods and improve our agricultural standards, we will never face food scarecity. Today, for the sake of getting city life, farmers are leaving villages which is making us loose our farming community and increasing food scarecity. If we revive our village life, we'll never face food problems. Just "Simple living High thinking" is the formulae...

Well. That is what the Prime Minister also has said. He has stated that there is enough stock of grains on hand to meet the shortfall in production caused by the floods. India has been a country dependent on the monsoons all along; and managing the food situation for one or two years should not be a problem, especialy when we have improved means of transport and communication.

Sham sundar,that was well said.

Thats the between thinkers and Talkers,those who act and actors,

Thats also the difference between straight and crooked.

Your thinking was disaster management but their thinking is Money encroachment(Make money when calamities happen)/or Beg,Borrow AND steal

This is an unwanted discussion. We were, are and will be capable of managing  any natural calamity. It is the British who were incapable of managing. 50 lakh people died in Bengal due to man made famine during British Raj

Yes .we are capable of managing the crisis.Money and food is garnered and sent to these places by NGO and voluntaruily by institutions,organiations,public and pvt firms and induviduals.its compassionate unlimited.

On 12 oct Even people of drought ridden chamarajnagar district came together to make chappatis and chutney powder packed in Al packets to be sent to the affected places.Even the have nots have contributed!!

What we need at this hour is Honest and Humanitarian polititcians and  officials  who can lead the disaster management and see that the funds reach the affected people without being swallowed by these sharks.We find that these people take such calamities as god sent for them to rake in crores of charity funds.

It is gratifying that we, Indians, can manage such disasters ourselves rather than depending on international bodies like UN. If we recall, during the deadly Tsunami, India helped Srilanka, Maldives before others came to their help. We have got enough manpower and facilities to take control of the situation.
