Disaster Preparedness Kit

Our world faces lots of calamities. Some are natural and some are just man-made. When we speak of natural calamities... the ones that could affect India are earthquakes, Flood, Landslides, Cyclones, Tsunami etc.

During such situations, we are forced to run away from our house to a safer place. These types of situations when you have to move from your house on a sudden notice is known as Emergency Evacuation Situation. In such situations, Many have relatives in far places, many won't be able to make up till there, others may not have relatives or friends where they can go for shelter. This completely depends on the person, on which we certainly have no right to question.
Now... Let me ask you a question. What are the things that you think are necessary to be packed at this last moment, when this disaster is really happening?
Of course, your first priority is your loved ones. No doubt in that.  But I am talking about the materialistic things necessary. Food, water, clothes, medicines right?  Are you sure you are not missing anything? Are you sure that you have that relative's or friend's phone number or address to contact? Let me practically explain this issue to you. If I was in such a stage.. my mind will be so disturbed and I'll also be weeping so much because of the situation. There will be 100 things coming into my mind... Like where will I take my family? What is going to happen to us? Will my family survive this? What about my house? Is this disaster going to completely damage my house? Therefore, in this situation, if I have to pack a bag for my family, that bag won't be a completely practical bag.

Are you able to follow me? No?

Ok next Example: If you are planning for a vacation for next week. you have started packing your bag. I m sure your bag will have each and everything required during your trip. The chance of missing important things is very less.

But, if I decide now to go for a one week trip tomorrow early morning and I have to pack my bag now. What I will do is that  I'll just grab as many items as I could and pack my bag. But, here the chance of missing something is much more. No.. I am serious. Once I myself forgot to take my brush and another time I had to adjust with one jeans for a week.


Now.. I think you really got my idea.  What I meant to say is that.. if we are prepared for a situation, we will have all the necessary items with us and we can fully concentrate on moving and getting to a safer place.


It will be easier for you if someone can actually guide you in packing an Emergency evacuation bag. Because this is not a leisure trip and you need expert guidance about each and everything.


This blog will help you to be prepared for such situations.


This is just a mission to spread the awareness of preparing ourselves with an emergency evacuation situation.
