TERM OF REFRENCE

Disaster is a sudden and great calamity, which causes or has the potential to cause deep distress to Railway users, passengers, staff and their families. However, there is a distinction to be made between a disaster and an accident. Accidents are occurrences where safety has been affected, where as Disasters, are those situations which cause acute distress to passengers, Railway users, staff and their families. Disaster management in the Railway context envisages expeditious, orderly, effective and adequate relief measures in case of a disaster. Given the size and complexity of the Railway network and the antiquely peculiar nature of each Railway disaster, it is very difficult to precisely lay down the exact line of action for each and every contingency. Continual efforts have been made by the Railways to evolve a well organized and well- planned system for handling different situations on the basis of the experiences gained over time. This booklet represents an effort to take the N.W. Railway farther in that direction.

Objective of the booklet: The objective of this plan is to make the system prompt, receptive and efficient enough to respond quickly and effectively in case of any disaster and to establish a corporate safety management culture and make all employees aware of their roles and responsibilities with respect to disasters.

The Disaster Management Plan has inter-alia include ‘who is responsible for what activities in detail’.(i) Preparation and implementation of disaster management plan is the

responsibility of concerned General Manager/Divisional Railway Manager.(ii) Authority to order ART/ARMV/Break Down crane – Chief Mechanical

Engineer/Chief Motive Power Engineer (Running & Loco)/Sr. Divisional Mechanical Engineer/Divisional Mechanical Engineer, etc.

(iii) Senior most railway officer at the site of the accident shall be the designated Site Manager.

(iv) Management of rescue operations – Primarily cperating , Mechanical and Medical Departments. Assistance to be provided by all railwaymen (irrespective of their department) as needed.

(v) Relief operations including care for the dead – Commercial, Medical & RPF Departments.

(vi) Communication network – Telecom Department.(vii) Crowd control and law & order at site – RPF.(viii) State police clearance for restoration – RPF.(ix) Restoration operations –


CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

In the earlier days to meet the accident, Indian Railway has build up its own infrastructure of Cranes, Accident Relief Trains (ARTs), Accident Relief Medical Equipments (ARMEs).Till the beginning of the year 2005, a disaster on the railway in effect meant a serious train accident, other items of disaster viz. Floods, Earthquakes etc were handled independent of the safety organization on the zonal railways. A high level committee (HLC) was constituted in Sep’02 to review Disaster Management on the Railways. The terms of reference of this committee were “to review the existing DM system over Indian Railways related to train accidents and natural calamities and to suggest improvements.

The high level committee had mainly gone into DM system over Indian Railways related to train accidents, natural calamities were hardly considered for review of relief/rescue arrangements.Till August 2009, out of 111 recommendations, 91 have been implemented on NW Railway, 3 have been modified and 1 deleted, balance 17are under various stages of implementation.The Ministry of Railways appointed another committee in the year 2004 headed by Shri I.I.M.S. Rana, retired Chairman Railway Board but before the committee could submit a detail report it wound up.Another Disaster Management Review Committee was appointed on 27.02.07 under the Chairmanship of Mr. G. Narayan, an ex. IPS officer. The committee has submitted its report on 22.12.08, and is presently under examination in the Board.

Disaster management Act came into existence in the year 2005. According to this every ministry all Department of the Government of India shall prepare a Disaster Management Plan specifying the measures to be taken for prevention and mitigation of Disaster, its roll and responsibility in relation to preparedeness and capacity building to deal with any thereating Disaster situation or Disaster.

Natural Disaster response force (NDRF) have been formed under the Disaster Management Act.at eight selected locations in the country for dealing with relief and rescue operation realeted to all types of Disasters.


CHAPTER II

CONCEPT OF DISASTER ON RAILWAYS

2.0 Disaster defined in Railway’s context:

The concept of a Disaster was not adequately defined on Indian Railways till 2005. Only cases of serious rail/train accidents were considered as disaster. The definition of DM as given by the Government of India was legislated for the first time in the Disaster Management Act, 2005. The broad principles of disaster for any department of the government changed to the concept of any incident which could not be handled with alone by that department i.e. if it was beyond the coping capacity of a particular department, the incident could be termed as a disaster. With this came the concept of the departments of Government of India as also the State governments required to join hands to extend whatever facilities were available with them to provide relief/rescue and mitigation on the occurrence of a disaster.

2.1 Strengths of the Railways to handle a Disaster: -

In handling disasters, Indian Railways is in a unique position as it has a number of strengths not available with many other departments of Government of India. These include: Railways own Communication Network. Operating Control on each Division linked with each Station. Territorial Army Units. Uniformed force of RPF/RPSF Civil Defence Organization An army of Gangmen spread out all over the Indian Railways. Scouts and Guides.

Well equipped ARTs/ARMEs at different locations with trained dedicated staff.Railway own doctors and Hospitals /Health Units Situated at different locations through out NWR.

Each of the above can be made use of to handle adversities depending upon requirement to handle the disaster.


Railway’s weaknesses/shortcomings to handle Disaster:

There are, however, a few weaknesses in the Railways which are very essential in handling a specific type of Disaster as under:

Absence of Tunnel cutting equipment – in case of collapse of a rail Tunnel, expertise and related equipment on this aspect is totally lacking.

Non-availability of trained divers for extrication of passengers and/or casualties (dead bodies and drowning/drowned passengers) from a train fallen down on the river/lake etc. Help of sports persons can be taken for this; the time of their mobilization is a factor to be kept in view.

Non-availability of cranes operated from a ship/barge for lifting of the coaches/bogies from a water body.

Definition of a Disaster on Railways:

“Railway Disaster is a serious train accident or an untoward event of grave nature, either on the railway premises or arising out of railway activity in that area, due to natural or man-made causes, that may lead to loss of many lives and/or grievous injuries to a large number of people, and/or severe disruption of traffic, necessitating large scale help from other Government/Non-government and Private Organizations.”

2.2 Authority to declare a Disaster on NW Railways:

Board has nominated GMs, AGMs or CSOs (when GM/AGM are not available) for declaring an untoward incident as Railway Disaster.

As per the Disaster Management Act, various ministries and departments under Government of India should join hands for mutual assistance in case of a disaster. Assistance from local government and non-government agencies is invariably required by the railway administration for prompt relief and rescue operation in case of disasters affecting railways and, therefore, assistance of NDRF could be of great help to the railways.

4.2 Coordination with NDRF NWR is in touch with NDRF battalion located at Gandhinagar (Gujarat) to have the first hand knowledge of the resources available with them and also to familiarize them with railway related disaster situations and expose them to the issues relevant to the rescue and relief of passengers during railway accident. It has also been advised to associate NDRF in full-scale exercise that is held once every year. There are no charges for availing the services of NDRF except the rail transportation which railways may provide at their cost for attending to rail disasters. Railways may also have to provide rail transportation logistics for transporting NDRF in case of non-railway exigencies.

For requisitioning NDRF in times of a Disaster, the Zonal Railways / Division have to approach Railway Board who will request NDMA to direct the NDRF battalions to proceed at the site .

CHAPTER VI

Types of Disasters

Disaster in the Railway context was traditionally a serious train accident, caused by human/equipment failure, which may affect normal movement of train services with loss of human life or property or both. This is now extended to include natural and other man made disasters. Different types of disasters are described below:

(a) Natural DisasterEarthquakes, Floods, Cyclones, Land Slides, T-sunami etc.

(b) Train Accident related Disaster1. Collisions (Mass casualties),2. Train marooned (flash floods), 3. Derailments at a bridge over a river and coaches falling down; 4.

Chemical (Terrorism) Disaster,5. Biological and Nuclear Disaster, 6. Tampering with Railway fittings to cause a serious accident, terrorism/security related crisis etc.


CHAPTER VII

MANAGEMENT OF NATURAL DISASTERS

1. Long-term Preparedness.

Natural disasters that have serious bearing on the Railway have been identified as Floods, Cyclones and Earthquakes. While, in case of floods and cyclones, an effective system of forecasting of the impending disaster does exit, it is impossible to forecast an earthquake.

Therefore, any analysis of earthquake preparedness will not be very meaningful. However, the preparedness for floods and cyclones, will be such that, it can deal effectively with post earthquake situation.

In the following paras, the line of actions by various departments in case of a disaster has broadly been outlined. Each department, Division should draw out its own line of action elaborately, on the basis of these guidelines, taking in to account all aspects of disaster management.

a) Identification of the risk Zones:- Civil Engineering department, in coordination with civil authorities, CWC & IMD, shall identify the areas prone to natural disasters, such as floods, cyclones, and earthquakes. A detailed inventory of major infrastructures, such as tracks, bridges, telecommunications, structures etc. which may be affected, shall also be prepared.

b) Monitoring the quality of constructions :-

Civil Engineering department will review the quality of constructions of tracks, bridge and foundations of houses and ensure that all repairs and new constructions take in to account the proneness of the area to a particular natural disaster. The department shall come out with technical guidelines for structural preventive measures and quality control. Mandatory for all areas vulnerable to floods, cyclones and earthquakes.

4.6 All SEE (P.Way) have an arrangement of portable Generators for lighting so that the dependence of Electrical Department even for small magnitude emergencies, can be avoided.

The above are only guidelines. The Division may keep these in view while formulating the detailed Action Plan for their jurisdiction.


(5) Disaster Management Team of RPF-

There should have a Disaster Management Team of RPF on each Division of IR composing about 15 men in different ranks . This team shall be specially trained in providing necessary support for disaster management over the division/ Neighboring division/ RPF should play an active role in managing law and order at site. (a) First aid training to be mandatory for all railway personnel, especially for

on board train staff, gang men and station staff who are usually the first responders at site. NWR will explore the feasibility of entering into an MOU with reputed training institutes like St. John ambulance/ Red Cross or any other agency for providing periodic training on disaster management (First aid and other medical relief) for the front line staff over their zones/ divisions. The frequency and contents of first aid training module as well as category of staff being covered should be reviewed.

As and when the frontline services etc. get privatized it must be ensured that the private operator must provide a certificate that his onboard staff are trained in first aid and are conversant with other medical resuscitation techniques. Further, it should be the duty of such private staff to play an active role in rescue and relief operations. (b) Training in crisis communication- During the last decade, electronic

and IT revolution has brought about a significant improvement in the media coverage. Therefore, the subjects of media management and crisis communication have assumed vital importance for all service organizations including IR. PHODs/DRMs/ADRMs and concerned branch officers (Sr.DCM/Sr.DME/Sr.DSO and Medical officers) should be trained on these topics by organizing special courses either at zonal railways or at RSC. Further short workshops be arranged specially for GMs/PHODs at Railway Board or Zonal Railways’ level. Assistance of Institute of Mass Communication or specialized agencies be taken, if required.

(c) Basic Training in search and Rescue Operations. Group ‘A’ Railway officers (Mechanical, Safety and Medical) should be nominated to under go “Basic training in search and rescue”, as per the instructions, to be issued by Board. Further, lessons on Railway Disaster Management will also form the part of rotational training programme and refresher and promotional courses at RSC, ZTC & STCs.


(7) Ensuring full Complements of Brake van equipments. (a) At the originating and interchanging points of all passenger carrying

trains, it must be ensured that, these trains run with full equipments of brake van. .

(b) The first Aid box and stretchers should also be examined for this purpose by the concerned Medical Officers.

(c) The Guards /Astt. Guards of the passengers carrying trains while taking over the charge of these equipments should also ensure that they are in good working condition.

ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN DURING SERIOUS ACCIDENTS

DRM will inform civil authorities & Police Deptt of concerned district to rush to help. He will ask for the medical team also from state Govt. DRM will demaned for NDRF battalion through HQ and Rly Board, if required for relief & Rescue operation as they are Medical First Responder (NFR)

ACTIONS AT THE SITE

1. Golden Hour :If a critical trauma patient is not given definite medical care within one hour from the time of accident, chances of his ultimate recovery reduces drastically, even with the best of Medical attention thereafter. This one hour period is generally known as The Golden Hour. During this Golden Hour period every effort should be made to :

(i) Render definite medical care to the extent possible preferably by qualified medical practitioners.

(ii) Stop bleeding and restore Blood Pressure.(iii) Persons under shock should be relieved of shock immediately.(iv) Transport casualties to the nearest hospital so as to reach within

this Golden Hour period.For being effective, any Disaster Management system should aim at recovering as many critical patients as possible and rushing them to hospital within this period.


2. Disaster Syndrome:A victim’s initial response following a Disaster is in three stages, viz. Shock stage, Suggestible stage and Recovery stage. These initial responses are called Disaster Syndrome.

(i) Shock stage: In which victims are stunned, dazed and apathetic.(ii) Suggestible stage: In which victims tend to be passive but open

to suggestions and willing to take directions from rescue workers and others.

(iii) Recovery stage: In which individuals may be tense and apprehensive and may show generalized anxiety.

3. Different phases of Disaster Response:

Disaster Response in case of a railway accident constitutes of 3 phases. These 3 phases are determined both by the time factor, as also by the extent of specialized assistance available. Firstly, it begins with the spontaneous reaction of men available on the train at the time of the accident. Thereafter the second phase continues with contributions made in rescue and relief work by men and material available locally in nearby areas of the accident site. The third and longest phase consists of meticulously planned action by trained DM teams who arrive at the accident site to carry out rescue and relief operations. The first phase which is of shortest duration last for about half an hour. It is an amateurish, poorly equipped effort; but is nevertheless the most important phase. In most cases, this is the only help available for a major part of the ‘Golden Hour’.The second phase which is of 2-3 hrs. duration is comparatively less amateurish and much better equipped. Their contribution is vital since the ‘Golden Hour’ period comes to an end during the working of this group. How many critically injured passengers can finally be saved depends solely on the efficiency of this group.The last and final phase of Disaster Response by railway’s DM team continues for a few days. It comes to an end not only with the restoration of traffic but with the departure of most relatives and next of kin from the accident site and disposal of all bodies.


Few of the grievously injured who continue to be hospitalized for comparatively longer spells are then the sole responsibility of railway’s medical department. With the above scenario in mind, it is necessary to take firm and quick decisions to save lives and property. To achieve these objectives Railways have a well-defined action plan that is successfully executed by the coordinated efforts of different disciplines, all of whom function as a team. The three groups which are active during the above mentioned 3 phases of Disaster Response may be classified as follows:

(i) Instant Action Team (IAT)(ii) First Responders (FR)(iii) Disaster Management Team (DMT) 4. First Aid in Emergency :(a) Order of priority for dealing with and helping injured passengers

should be as follows:- unconscious,- bleeding excessively,- having breathing problems,- grievously injured,- in a state of shock,- having fractures,- simple injured.

(b) For assessing and handling injuries, acronym DR ABC is to be followed.

(i) D – DANGER: Look for danger. Make sure that no further danger exists either

for the patient or for the First Aide.

(ii) R – RESPONSE:Check for consciousness. Call by his/her name, slap, pinch and

shake gently. If there is no response, then it means that the patient is unconscious.


(iii) A – AIR WAY:Clear the airway (Trachea). If patient is unconscious, then the airway may be narrowed or blocked making breathing impossible. This occurs due to several reasons. Mass food particles or foreign body in the air passage; or the tongue may have sagged back and blocked the air passage. To open the airway lift the chin forward with the fingers of one hand while pressing the forehead backwards with the other hand, now the tongue comes forward and the airway is cleared. To clear the other objects in the mouth press the Jaw, open the mouth put your fingers or a clean cloth in the mouth and clear the things. Now the air passage is clear.

(iv) B – BREATHING:Check for Breathing. Keep the back of your fingers near the

nose of the patient. You can feel the warm air (or) keep your ear near the nose and look for the movement of chest, listen to the sound from the throat and feel the warm air from the nose.

(v) C – CIRCULATION:Check the pulse. Normally we check the pulse at the wrist; however, sometimes it is not felt because of severe bleeding. So, it is better to check the pulse at neck. (Carotid Pulse).

After checking DR ABC, there may be two possibilities. i) If patient is breathing, has circulation but is unconsciousness,

immediately turn him to Recovery position and transport to hospital.

ii) If the patient has failure of breathing and circulation, then immediately start CPR (CARDIO PULMONARY RESUSCITATION) the important life saving technique in First Aid.To revive the lungs you have to give artificial respiration by mouth to mouth (Kiss of Life) method. Lift the chin forward and press the jaw open the mouth with one hand and close the nose with other hand keep your mouth on the casualty’s mouth and blow.


To revive the heart you have to give external chest compression. The casualty should be made to lie down on a hard surface. Keep heel of the palm on the chest (Pit of stomach) of the casualty and keep the other palm over that hand and compress.

Mouth to mouth ventilation and external chest compression should be given in the ratio of 2:15. This should be continued up to the revival of life or till reaching the hospital. Once life starts, immediately turn the casualty into recovery position and transport to hospital. (Recovery position or three quarter prone position means turn to one side, better to right side)

Recovery position:Recovery position is the safest position for unconscious patients. Normally we keep the patient in a supine position. However, in case of unconscious patients, it is a very dangerous position because the tongue can fall back and close the airway or saliva and other secretions may get into


windpipe. To avoid that, turn the casualty into recovery position and transport to hospital.

Sometimes, you may not be in a position to do First Aid due to tense situation. In such circumstances at least turn the casualty to Recovery Position, which would help to save many precious lives.

- Time/Date of accident.- Location Km./between stations.- Train number and description.- Nature of accident.- Approximate number of killed/injured.- Extent of damage.- Assistance required.- Condition of the adjacent line, if any.- Whether OHE is involved. (x) From here onwards, the DRM of the accident involved division

takes over charge as OC Site.2. Formation of Groups comprising members of Instant Action

Team :(i) OC Site shall immediately collect all Railway staff on train/at

site and form separate groups. (ii) Passengers traveling by the same train who volunteer for rescue

and relief work should also be drafted into these groups. (iii) Passengers from accident involved coaches should be directed

towards their own coach.(iv) Passengers from coaches which are not affected can be

distributed amongst other accident involved coaches.(v) In the absence of OC site, TS/TTE shall take steps to form such

groups.


(vi) In the absence of TS/TTE the Guard/Assistant Guard shall take steps to form such groups.

(vii) 5 or 6 groups should be formed depending on number of coaches involved.

(viii) Ideally, one group should be formed for handling each coach.

(ix) In case sufficient numbers of officers are present, then one officer should be made in-charge of each group.

(x) Otherwise, Sr. Supervisors traveling by the accident involved train should be nominated as in-charge of each group to co-ordinate its working.

(xi) In case sufficient numbers of Sr. Supervisors are also not present, one TTE should be nominated as in-charge of each group to co-ordinate its working.

(xii) Each group should rescue injured, entrapped passengers.

3. Duties of on board railway staff immediately after the accident :

(i) Don’t panic. Once the accident has already occurred and the train has come to a standstill nothing worse can happen.

(ii) In case you have a Mobile and it is working, inform the divisional control office immediately about the accident.

(iii) Observe the position in which your coach has stopped; whether it is standing upright or turned upside down or lying on its side.

(iv) Try and see whether your coach has stopped on a bridge or whether there is level ground on both sides.

(v) In case the coach is on a bridge or very high embankment or in case it is raining heavily, then it is better to wait for some time and not be in a hurry to leave the coach. You may be jumping from the frying pan into the fire.

(vi) Search your coach with your torch and try to determine the general position.


(vii) See that passengers don’t panic either. Passengers sometimes make things worse for themselves by panicking at this critical moment. Try to calm them and build up their confidence.

(viii) Ascertain whether passengers are injured or not; and whether any of them are trapped or pinned down inside the debris.

(ix) Call out aloud and find out whether there are any doctors present.

(x) Doctors who are travelling in the coach should be asked to announce their presence so that they can attend to and help injured passengers.

(xi) Call out aloud and find out whether there are any railway staff present.

(xii) Railway staff who are travelling in the coach should be asked to announce their presence so that they can attend to and help other passengers.

(xiii) For each coach, form a core team comprising of railway staff available, doctors and 3 or 4 uninjured passengers from the same coach. This core team should take the lead in helping remaining passengers both injured and uninjured.

4. Duties of members of Instant Action Team – Till arrival of Divisional Officers :

(i) If a person is bleeding and loosing blood, or if he is unconscious, then in that case you have to act quickly. ‘Golden Hour’ should be kept in mind. You may have at the most only one hour’s time on hand.

(ii) In such cases, immediately administer First Aid to the injured passenger and try and stop further loss of blood.

(iii) Persons trained in first aid may do ‘Cardio Pulmonary Resucitation’. This may save several lives.

(iv) If the door is open and is accessible, then uninjured passengers should be helped to come out from the door.

(v) In AC coaches the windows panes should be broken open in order to let in fresh air for the occupants, and thereafter to evacuate them.


(vi) Non – AC coaches have one emergency exit window on each side. The position of this emergency window is 5th from the left when facing the line of windows from inside the coach. They are opposite berth nos. 23 and 57. In case the door is locked and jammed, try and open these windows so that some of the uninjured passengers can come out through the emergency exit.

(vii) Special care should be taken while evacuating the old, infirm and children in order to ensure that they are not separated from their family members.

(viii) Extrication of critically injured should be done under medical supervision as far as possible.

(ix) In case medical supervision is not available, then critically injured passengers should be made to lie down on a bed sheet and thereafter taken out by 4 persons holding the four corners. This will ensure that no further damage takes place. (Bed sheets will be available in AC coaches).

(x) Passengers who are bleeding from open cuts should be tied up with strips of cloth so as to reduce if not stop the bleeding altogether.

(xi) It is better not to take out the luggage from inside the coaches at the first instance, for two reasons. Firstly, passengers both injured and uninjured should get preference in this evacuation process. Secondly, it may be safer for the luggage to be left inside where there are less chances of their being stolen or pilfered.

(xii) After passengers have been evacuated from your coach, cross check with the reservation chart and against the name of each passenger note down as to whether he/she is injured or not.

(xiii) After all passengers have been evacuated; water and eatables can be taken out gradually.

3. CHEMICAL DISASTERS (Bomb threat/Blast at Railway station/Trains)National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has issued

guidelines on the management of chemical disasters. These guidelines are directed more towards their prevention and mitigation of their effects, if these happen than on rescue and relief operations afterwards.

Indian Railways have also been transporting chemicals and hazardous materials e.g. petroleum products (petrol, Naphtha, HSD, etc.), Caustic soda, LPG, Chemical manures, Acids etc. These goods are carried either in Wagons or SLRs or in the Parcel Vans.Indian Railway’s Rules for carrying dangerous (hazardous goods) by rail have been legislated in the Railway Red Tariff Rule 2000 as per which dangerous goods have been classified into following 8 classes:

1. Explosives2. Gases, Compressed, liquefied or dissolved under pressure3. Petroleum & other inflammable liquids4. Inflammable solids5. Oxidising substance6. Poisonous (Toxic Substances)7. Radio-active substances8. Acids & other Corrosives.


NW Railway is having contact with all Oil Companies and all other agencies at defferent locations. In case of any leakage or other problem on line, companies are requested, who in turn immediately attend these faults. Due to this no untoward incidence take place.

Staff of ARTs of Divisions have been trained from Nagpur and Delhi fire training school to meet any disaster caused by carrying of these hazardous materials.

Person receiving call regarding bomb threat should:

(i) Attempt to gain as much information as possible from the caller like type of device, time set, location, reason/purpose of the act, dialect mannerism and identity of the caller.

(ii) Inform and alert the disaster management team (Bomb detection squad).

(iii) Alert police, fire brigade and explosive department. (iv) Pass on the information to all departments concerned. (v) Take imitative for evacuation of all persons from premises. (vi) Person noticing a bomb like object, should bring it to the notice

of the nearest available officer. (vii) Inform GRP, RPF, and Bomb detection squad. (viii) Ensure all persons are away from the spot and avoid

unnecessary crowding near the area. (ix) Inform control to take further steps for regulating train services. (x) Wait for clearance from the Police department to restore normal

working. (xi) Utilize “Caller ID” facility if provided to trace the caller.

3) Nuclear Disaster (Radiation Emergency):

a) Personal injury involving radioactive material contamination:

(i) Render first aid immediately for serious injuries by trained. (ii) Call bomb squad, fire station.


(iii) A possible without causing harm to the victim, monitor the injured, remove contaminated clothing and gross personal contamination.

(b) Radioactive contamination of personnel:

(i) Remove and bag all contaminated clothing. (ii) Call fire station, bomb squad, and police. (iii) Skin contamination should be cleaned using mild soap and tepid

water. Use portable survey meter to monitor for remaining contamination. If not free of contamination, re-wash and re-survey.

4. BIOLOGICAL DISASTERS Biological disasters might be caused by epidemics, accidental release

of virulent microorganism(s) or Bioterrorism (BT) with the use of biological agents such as anthrax, smallpox, etc.

In recent times travelling has become easier. More and more people are travelling all over the world which exposes the whole world to epidemics. As our society is in a state of flux, novel pathogens emerge to pose challenges not only at the point of primary contact but in far removed locations. The Marburg virus illustrates this. The increased interaction between humans and animals has increased the possibilities of zoonotic diseases emerging in epidemic form.

Mitigation :-The essential protection against natural and artificial outbreaks of

DISASTER COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

19.1 Communication on Railways for Disaster Management

A comprehensive Communication System on the Railways to encompass all requirements of the Railways Disaster Management is required to be set up. This will be also inter-linked with the communication system with outside agencies of the concerned Central and State Governments, IMD etc.

Preparatory work to be done for quick installation of communication system (satellite system) between Railway control set up for flood and affected locations locations/station. This can even be on make shift raft, boat etc. Similar arrangements can also be made in earthquake affected areas.

There should be a provision for Telecommunication with Relief Camps as and when and where set up.

19.2 Communication between stake holders

Under the Head of the item of Infrastructural Development (Item 3.3.2) under the Sub-Head “Networking and Communication” it is mentioned NDMA’s Guidelines in item (iii) and in (iii) (c) page 30 that “Effective Communication and Networking (Human and Functional) between various stake-holders and sensitive organizations is currently inadequate and needs to be established with the Security Agencies (CISF, Police etc.) manning sensitive locations like Railway stations.”

In item iii (e) page 30, it is laid down that dedicated communication system is to be established for Rail Transportation to monitor movement of Toxic Chemical Agents. A mechanism is to be developed like a Geographic Information system (GIS) for continuous monitoring of such Transport Vehicles along their route. This may require to be dove-tailed with the FOIS network of the Railways, once the TMS/FOIS is extended for booking (preparation of RRs) and movement of chemical items in wagons to be included in FOIS.

19.3 Back up Communication on Railways :

To handle any disaster by the Railways and to utilize its resources efficiently Communication is an essential requirement. Where required, back up (alternatives) should be adequately available.

114

In chapter 2 of the DM Plan of the Railways (in item 2.2) one of the strengths of the Railways to handle a disaster is its own communication network. In handling a crises or a disaster, reliability of communication has to be cent per cent.

At the Divisional level, the control rooms have to continue with communication with the stations, the telephone exchange have to function and the OFC and Quad cable network has to work.

Where there is no back up of the Railways owned OFC network, an arrangement of sharing with Government/Non Government organization and other service providers has to be planned in advance. Or else, the alternative of satellite communication be resorted to. However, the speed of reconnecting a failed communication by which ever means is of essence.

115

CHAPTER-IV

Part B - AT THE ZONAL LEVEL

(2) Crack Team of Rail Rescue Experts The high level Disaster Management committee recommends that each zone should have a professionally trained Crack team of rail Rescue experts (Mechanical and Medical officials and containerized hospitals) based at headquarters who can be rushed to any site of accident by air/ and route at short incite. This group will continuously be exposed to the latest rescue, extrication techniques and medical relief . This group will support the accident rescue and relief arrangements made by divisions at the site of accidents. CRACK TEAMS – These will be Specialized Disaster Response Units.

- One complete set of sophisticated equipment/gadgets required for rescue and relief must be available with one specialized disaster response unit at each Zonal headquarter.

- Each unit will be provided with state of the art equipment for entrapment rescue from the accident involved coaches and will be kept at the disposal of GM.

- This specialized disaster response unit (comprising of both men and material) available at Zonal HQ must be rushed to accident site of a major disaster by Helicopter or along with GM’s special train as needed. They would serve as an additional aid.

- Specialized response unit must maintain its elite character. It must not be sent to sites of smaller accidents and should only be rushed to sites of major disasters.

(2) Ensuring specified minimum running of Diesel locos in all Electrical Routes.

i. To meet the requirements of relief, restoration and passenger convenience, it has been decided that diesel locos in electrified territories be deployed in such a manner that there is a diesel loco available in 25-75 kms (average 50kms) of the accident site so that the above mentioned constraints in approaching the golden hour concept are over come thus ensuring speedier rescue and relief operations in case of serious accidents disrupting the route or major power breakdown or grid failures. Etc. This would ensure that diesel locos are available for running the rescue trains, relief trains, relative specials and for pulling out the unaffected trains with stranded passengers. In the interest of readiness and to meet the aspirations of the people for faster medical relief, COM must ensure that the time tabling and freight operations

116

should be so carefully planned in order that the above stipulation is met at all times without vitiating our efforts to approach the golden hour concept.

(3) Constitution of a Monitoring cell. There shall be a high level monitoring cell, at zonal headquarters level, which shall include the following- 1. Chief Safety Officer2. Principal Chief Engineer3. Chief Medical Director4. Chief Mechanical Engineer5. Chief Signal & Telecom Engineer 6. Chief Electrical Engineer 7. Controller of Stores8. Chief Commercial Manager9.

Chapter - I TERM OF REFRENCE

A Disaster is a sudden and great calamity, which causes or has the potential to cause deep distress to Railway users, passengers, staff and their families. However, there is a distinction to be made between a disaster and an accident. Accidents are occurrences where safety has been affected, where as Disasters, are those situations which cause acute distress to passengers, Railway users, staff and their families. Disaster management in the Railway context envisages expeditious, orderly, effective and adequate relief measures in case of a disaster. Given the size and complexity of the Railway network and the antiquely peculiar nature of each Railway disaster, it is very difficult to precisely lay down the exact line of action for each and every contingency. Continual efforts have been made by the Railways to evolve a well organized and well- planned system for handling different situations on the basis of the experiences gained over time. This booklet represents an effort to take the N.W. Railway farther in that direction.

Objective of the booklet: The objective of this plan is to make the system prompt, receptive and efficient enough to respond quickly and effectively in case of any disaster and to establish a corporate safety management culture and make all employees aware of their roles and responsibilities with respect to disasters.

The Disaster Management Plan has inter-alia include ‘who is responsible for what activities in detail’.(i) Preparation and implementation of disaster management plan is the

responsibility of concerned General Manager/Divisional Railway Manager.(ii) Authority to order ART/ARMV/Break Down crane – Chief Mechanical

Engineer/Chief Motive Power Engineer (Running & Loco)/Sr. Divisional Mechanical Engineer/Divisional Mechanical Engineer, etc.

(iii) Senior most railway officer at the site of the accident shall be the designated Site Manager.

(iv) Management of rescue operations – Primarily cperating , Mechanical and Medical Departments. Assistance to be provided by all railwaymen (irrespective of their department) as needed.

(v) Relief operations including care for the dead – Commercial, Medical & RPF Departments.

(vi) Communication network – Telecom Department.(vii) Crowd control and law & order at site – RPF.(viii) State police clearance for restoration – RPF.(x) Restoration operations –

134

134

1

A. Rolling stock – Mechanical Department.B. Fixed infrastructure like Track, Over Head Equipment, Signaling

system, etc. – departments concerned.(x) Maintenance of SPART/ART & ARMV Rolling Stock/Break Down cranes

including rail-cum-road and road mobile emergency vehicle etc. – Mechanical Department.

(xi) Maintenance of equipment kept in SPART/ART/ARMV for rescue and restoration operations – departments concerned.

(xii) Media Management at site – (a) Site Manager shall be the chief spokesman at site and can be

assisted by the branch officers concerned, if needed. (b) PR/Commercial Department to look after the media needs at site.(xiii) Checklist for the officers & supervisors must be issued in the form of a

pocket booklet indicating DOs and DON’Ts for the benefit of: (a) First official reaching the site of accident (b) Senior most officers at the site. (c) Divisional/HQ control organization. (d) Station Manager/Station Master.

The Disaster Management Plans must be reviewed and updated in the month of January every year.

Chapter II Classification of Disasters

Definition of disaster in Railway. –

“Railway Disaster is a serious train accident or an untoward event of grave nature, either on the railway premises or arising out of railway activity in that area, due to natural or man-made causes, that may lead to loss of many lives and/ or grievous injuries to a large number of people , and/ or sefe disruption of traffic, necessitating large scale help from other Government/ Non – Government and Private Organizations”.

Classification of disasters – Disaster in general, may be classified into five different group’s i.e. –

i) Water and climate related Disasters - Foods, cyclones, tornadoes, hailstorms, clouds bursts, heat and cold waves, droughts and soil erosions, etc.

ii) Geological Disasters -

Landslides and mud flows,, earthquakes, dam failures/ dam bursts, mine fires, etc.

iii) Chemical, Industrial and Nuclear disasters. iv) Accident related disasters-

Fire, mine- flooding, major building collapses, bomb blasts, festival related disasters, air, road and rail accidents, boat capsizes.

v) Biological disasters-Pest attacks, cattle epidemics food poisoning.

However, as far as the Railways are concerned, we may broadly classify the disasters in the following way:-

DISASTERS

Natural Disasters Train accident/Railway related Disasters (f) Earthquakes(g) Floods(h) Cyclones

i) Collisions Fire in trains. ii) Derailmentsiii) Level Crossing Accidents

CHAPTER-V

PART-A ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN DURING SERIOUS ACCIDENTS

ACTIONS AT THE SITE (GOLDEN HOUR)

1. Golden Hour :

If a critical trauma patient is not given definite medical care within one hour from the time of accident, chances of his ultimate recovery reduces drastically, even with the best of Medical attention thereafter. This one hour period is generally known as The Golden Hour.

During this Golden Hour period every effort should be made to :

(i) Render definite medical care to the extent possible preferably by qualified medical practitioners.

(ii) Stop bleeding and restore Blood Pressure.

(iii) Persons under shock should be relieved of shock immediately.

(iv) Transport casualties to the nearest hospital so as to reach within this Golden Hour period.

For being effective, any Disaster Management system should aim at recovering as many critical patients as possible and rushing them to hospital within this period.

2. Disaster Syndrome :A victim’s initial response following a Disaster is in three stages, viz. Shock stage, Suggestible stage and Recovery stage. These initial responses are called Disaster Syndrome.(i) Shock stage : In which victims are stunned, dazed and apathetic.(ii) Suggestible stage : In which victims tend to be passive but open to suggestions

and willing to take directions from rescue workers and others.(iii) Recovery stage : In which individuals may be tense and apprehensive and may

show generalized anxiety. 3. Different phases of Disaster Response :

Disaster Response in case of a railway accident constitutes of 3 phases. These 3 phases are determined both by the time factor, as also by the extent of specialized assistance available. Firstly, it begins with the spontaneous reaction of men available on the train at the time of the accident. Thereafter the second phase continues with contributions made in rescue and relief work by men and material available locally in nearby areas of the accident site. The third and longest phase consists of meticulously planned action by trained DM teams who arrive at the accident site to carry out rescue and relief operations.

The first phase which is of shortest duration last for about half an hour. It is an amateurish, poorly equipped effort; but is nevertheless the most important phase. In most cases, this is the only help available for a major part of the ‘Golden Hour’.

138

138

1

The second phase which is of 2-3 hrs. duration is comparatively less amateurish and much better equipped. Their contribution is vital since the ‘Golden Hour’ period comes to an end during the working of this group. How many critically injured passengers can finally be saved depends solely on the efficiency of this group.

The last and final phase of Disaster Response by railway’s DM team continues for a few days. It comes to an end not only with the restoration of traffic but with the departure of most relatives and next of kin from the accident site and disposal of all bodies. Few of the grievously injured who continue to be hospitalized for comparatively longer spells are then the sole responsibility of railway’s medical department.

With the above scenario in mind, it is necessary to take firm and quick decisions to save lives and property. To achieve these objectives Railways have a well-defined action plan that is successfully executed by the coordinated efforts of different disciplines, all of whom function as a team. The three groups which are active during the above mentioned 3 phases of Disaster Response, may be classified as follows :

(i) Instant Action Team (IAT)

(ii) First Responders (FR)

(iii) Disaster Management Team (DMT)

4. First Aid in Emergency :(a) Order of priority for dealing with and helping injured passengers should be as

follows :

- unconscious,- bleeding excessively,- having breathing problems,- grievously injured,- in a state of shock,- having fractures,- simple injured. (b) For assessing and handling injuries, acronym DR ABC is to be followed.

(i) D – DANGER :

Look for danger. Make sure that no further danger exists either for the patient or for the First Aide.

(ii) R – RESPONSE :Check for consciousness. Call by his/her name, slap, pinch and shake gently. If there is no response, then it means that the patient is unconscious.

(iii) A – AIR WAY :Clear the airway (Trachea). If patient is unconscious, then the airway may be narrowed or blocked making breathing impossible. This occurs due to several reasons. Mass food particles or foreign body in the air passage; or the tongue may have sagged back and blocked the air passage.

To open the airway lift the chin forward with the fingers of one hand while pressing the forehead backwards with the other hand, now the tongue comes forward and the airway is cleared. To clear the other objects in the mouth press the Jaw, open the mouth put your fingers or a clean cloth in the mouth and clear the things. Now the air passage is clear.

139

(iv) B – BREATHING :Check for Breathing. Keep the back of your fingers near the nose of the patient. You can feel the warm air (or) keep your ear near the nose and look for the movement of chest, listen to the sound from the throat and feel the warm air from the nose.

(v) C – CIRCULATION :Check the pulse. Normally we check the pulse at the wrist; however, sometimes it is not felt because of severe bleeding. So, it is better to check the pulse at neck. (Carotid Pulse).

After checking DR ABC, there may be two possibilities.

i) If patient is breathing, has circulation but is unconsciousness, immediately turn him to Recovery position and transport to hospital.

ii) If the patient has failure of breathing and circulation, then immediately start CPR (CARDIO PULMONARY RESUSCITATION) the important life saving technique in First Aid.

To revive the lungs you have to give artificial respiration by mouth to mouth (Kiss of Life) method. Lift the chin forward and press the jaw open the mouth with one hand and close the nose with other hand keep your mouth on the casualty’s mouth and blow.

To revive the heart you have to give external chest compression. The casualty should be made to lie down on a hard surface. Keep heel of the palm on the chest (Pit of stomach) of the casualty and keep the other palm over that hand and compress.

140

140

Mouth to mouth ventilation and external chest compression should be given in the ratio of 2:15. This should be continued up to the revival of life or till reaching the hospital. Once life starts, immediately turn the casualty into recovery position and transport to hospital. (Recovery position or three quarter prone position means turn to one side, better to right side)

Recovery position :

Recovery position is the safest position for unconscious patients. Normally we keep the patient in a supine position. However, in case of unconscious patients, it is a very dangerous position because the tongue can fall back and close the airway or saliva and other secretions may get into windpipe. To avoid that, turn the casualty into recovery position and transport to hospital.

Sometimes, you may not be in a position to do First Aid due to tense situation. In such circumstances at least turn the casualty to Recovery Position, which would help to save many precious lives.

Part B – INSTANT ACTION TEAM (IAT)1. Instant Action Team comprises of:(i) The Guard, Crew, TS, TTEs, AC coach attendant, Asstt. Guard, RPF and

other railway staff on duty on the accident involved train. (ii) GRP staff traveling on the train on duty. (iii) Railway staff traveling by the accident involved train either on duty or on

Duration of interruption is defined as duration from the time ao accident till starting of first train on line clear from adjacent station for movement over the affected line in that section. MEDIA MANAGEMENT1. General Manager and the Divisional Managers should get the visual and

print media reports monitored on real time basis. Efforts need be made to willingly offer informations to the media of the occurrences taking place on the system to prevent floating of rum ours and highly exaggerated and distorted informations.

2. CPRO,, PRO and nominated Spokesperson on the Division should be fully involved in the Pro-active media Management. It is, thus essential that PR personnel are fed with complete informations in the quickest possible time for furnishing it to media.

3. The CPRO, PRO will arrange to issue necessary “press note “ in consultation with the CSO/CPTM/CFTM as soon as possible.

4. Incorrect and unauthorized versions in regard to the details of accidents and its cause must not be conveyed to the media.

5. No officer below the rank of Junior Administrative Grade should issue or authorize to issue “ Press Note “ in regard to the cause of accident.

6. In case the division can not contact the official of the Headquarters ,DRM of the concerned division will arrange to issue such note.

7. Subsequent “press note “as may be necessary shall be issued from time to time to keep the public informed about the progress in rescue operations.

8. Sr. DOM/DOM will arrange to issue bulletins at regular interval basis to all important stations, about the particulars of transshipments, diversion of trains ,movement of passenger specials probable time of restoration etc.

9. As soon as an accident takes place division should send first information report by means of FAX, Railnet and telephonic communication .It is once again emphasized that this information should be sent on first hearing of the news without waiting for any further details. In the event of an accident all relevant information which should be made public should

168

168

1

be posted on the Rly`s Website including the details of casualties/injures . This updating of website will be done by CPRO who will be the website manager. CPRO will do this after obtaining approval of GM/ CSO. In CPRO’s absence, Sr. PRO will be the website manager and he will be trained accordingly. Dy.CM (IT) will provide all the necessary technical inputs that may be required to effect this decision.

10. Now a days, it is often seen that media are sensationalizing even trivial accidents. One such case was the derailment of the empty rake of ISPART Express at Sambalpur, which was highlighted in a major TV channel as a derailment of ISPAT Express. To preempt such situations, the CPRO has to take (a) proactive measures and earn the respect of the press so that a misinformation is not released without consulting the CPRO/PRO and (b) even if wrong information is aired the necessary correction/rectification should be done as soon as the media /agency is informed by the CPRO accordingly.

CHAPTER-VIIITRAINING AND MOCK DRILL OF ART/ARME.

Trained manpower is an essential ingredient of any DM system . Mere provision of sophisticated equipment without trained manpower is futile . For handling an unforeseen situation like managing a Disaster, Training of all railway personnel concerned is an inevitable input. To acquire necessary knowledge and skill, all relevant officials should be given periodic training regarding their duties and that of their department. 1. Training Training should be conducted following three levels :i) Individual Training: a) For enhancing the skill of staff attached to ARMVS , ARTs, etc. supervisors and staff

shall be given general training given Disaster Management. ii) Special training may be arranged in Extrication, Rescue, Medical relief, Rolling stock

restoration technique and Civil Defence by departments concerned. 2. Seminars/ Workshops : Seminars should be periodically conducted on Disaster

preparedness, and the DM Plan. 3. Joint Exercises: Full scale Disaster Management Mock Drill to be conducted as

detailed below. Full Scale Mock Drill: Disaster management essentially necessitates a state of preparedness under all circumstances and the efficacy of arrangements therein can be assessed only by conducting periodical full scale mock drills.

i) Objective of the full scale mock drill would be to: - Gauge the preparedness of DM system including detailed planning and keeping of all

equipment in good fettle. - Integrate the operational response to measure overall performance of the exercise. - Measure performance with regard to accident restoration. ii) On a division, the first mock drill should be conducted within 3 months of issue of the

zonal DM plan. iii) On a division, the second mock drill should be conducted 3 months after the first one,

in order to correct all shortcomings noticed during the first mock drill. iv) There after , mock drills shall be conducted once every 2 years after the new DRM

takes over. v) It should be conducted during the day and in a branch line section. vi) Six hrs. traffic block shall be taken and the ARMV /ART run out to the accident site. vii) UCC and CAC should be set up and each department will post their a functionaries in

the control office as also in UCC and CAC. viii) All facilities should be provided in UCC and CAC by departments concerned. ix) During the full scale mock drill following expects shall be closely watched. - Turning out of ARMV/ART within the prescribed time. - Speed of the specials. - Handling of ART, HRDs , HREs and other rescue equipments Logging of events.

Functioning of field telephones and communication network functioning of generator sets, lighting equipment.

CHAPTER-IXIMPORTANT INFORMATION OF THE ZONAL HEAD QUARTERS

A. IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS OF THE BOARD.1. All railway men traveling in a train involved in accident should report immediately to

the guard. 2. All staff at the accident site should wear Arm bands. Accordingly all passenger

carrying train should be provided with 10 Arm bands, to be kept with guard. 3. A permanent check list to be displayed in all SLRS. Regarding duties to guard during

an accident. 4. Division should nominate controlling stations in each section of their jurisdiction.

SM’s of this controlling stations on receiving information of accidents will reach to the site of accident with his staff.

5. Every Railway should have fully equipped road ambulance vans in identified areas where a good road infrastructure has been developed.

6. A minimum two no. of telephones with STD facility should be provided in the divisional control room. Facsimile facilities should also be provided in the division.

7. All ARME, scale- I should be provided with cold cutting equipment and should be periodically tested, and also staff in sufficient number should be trained in handing this equipment.

8. Relief train should be given over- riding priority with injured stranded passengers.

B. HIRING OF HELICOPTER/AEROPANE /ROAD VEHICLES FOR RESCUE OPERATIONS

1. Empowering zonal Railways to requisition helicopter aero plane at the time of severe accident.

Zonal Railways have been delegated powers to requisition helicopter/ aero plane for expeditious action in the event of serious accidents vide Railway Board’s letter No. 86/Safety-1/24/47 Dated 13.03.1987 & 19.09.1989. The subject matter has been reviewed by the board and the following revised powers are delegated to the Zonal Railways.

(i) GMs /DRMs have been delegated the powers to requisition helicopter/ aeroplane to reach the site of serious accident for rescue operation expeditiously . In addition, powers are also delegated to requisition air support to dispatch the rescue teams to the site of the accident.

It is difficult to stipulate exactly the circumstances under which they may exercise these powers, It has been decided to leave this to the discretion of GMs/DRMs. However, broadly these may cover the following type of cases.

(a) Where more than 10 casualties (deaths-cum-serious injuries) are feared and it is difficult for these officers to reach the site within reasonable time ;

(b) Where heavy damage is caused to railway installations in sensitive and tension filled areas (e.g. wreckage of track, bridges, etc. through bomb blast, other means of sabotage, etc.)

(c) Where public reaction in case of late arrival of senior officers at site is likely to be highly adverse.

Normally, in case of an accident only one helicopter should be requisitioned by a Zonal Railway, except when there is a serious passenger train accident involving

178

178

1

several casualties when it is essential for both the General Manager and the Divisional Railway Manager to reach the site at once to satisfy the public and the press. However, for dispatching the rescue teams to the site of the accident, separate helicopter/aeroplane may be requisitioned, if so needed.

The GMs/DRMs may exercise the above powers personally and may not delegate these powers.

(ii) Zonal Railways are further empowered to requisition helicopter/aeroplane to evacuate injured and dead in the event of serious accident. GM may personally exercise these powers and may not delegate these further.

The above instruction on the subject supersede all the previous instructions issued vide above referred letters.

This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.

2. Important Recommendations of High Level Committee on Disaster Management:-(i) All open line/construction civil engineering agreements or track related works must

include a clause that vehicles and equipments of contractors can be drafted by Railway administration in case of accidents/Natural Calamities involving human lives (Sl.No. 29)

(ii) DRMs/Sr.DCM/DCM and medical officials should be delegated with adequate financial powers for hiring vehicles for transportation and treatment of injured passengers at Non- Railway hospitals. Adequate cash imprest/permission to withdraw from Station earnings should be ensured (SI.No. 30)

C-I Minutes of the Meeting on Management of Railway Disasters (Accidents) held on 23rd April 2008 at HQ NDMA, Centaur Hotel, Near LGL Airport, New Delhi. Meeting chaired by Shri K.M.Singh, Hon’ble Member, NDMA was held on 23rd April 2008 at 1500 hrs in trhe conference room at NDMA at Centaur Hotel, near IGI Airport, New Delhi. To discuss the co ordination and cooperation between NDMA, specially NDRF and the Railway Safety, Ministry of Railway (Govt. of India) to handle Railway Disaster (Accidents)in the country.

1. The NDRF bns located at 08 different locations are under process of being organized, trained and quipped to carry out search, rescue and relief operations during any natural or man-made disaster and will also provided all possible support to Ministry of Railways in their endevvors to carry out such tasks if called for . Although, the NDRF is meant to deal with only level 3 disasters but will also take such steps even in lesser severity of disaster if situation arises. The NDRF personnel are not trained in Bomb disposal and are also not to be deployed on Security and other Law & order related duties at the site of disaster except specialized search and rescue operation.

2. Requisition of NDRF personnelAlthough the Standing Operative Procedures (SOPs) are under preparation to requisition the NDRF personnel for search, rescue and relief operations for any Natural/man-made disaster but till it is finalized, there is immediate need to work out a mechanism of communication and co ordination for deployment of NDRF personnel for management of Railway disaster (Accidents)to save precious lives of traveling passengers. It was emphasized on better coordination and cooperation, it was decided that the Ministry of Railway would direct the Divisional Railway Managers (DRMS) to liaise with NDRF Bn Commandants through co-ordination meetings so that they know each other’s capabilities and mechanisms to carry out the tasks of search, rescue and relief operations without loss of time. The details of NDRF locations along with names of commandants and their telephone Nos. are given at page No. ----------------who could be contacted immediately for support and also for co- oreration meeting from time to time. 3. Proactive approachIt was decided that NDRF personnel will play a proactive role in responding to the demand of DRMS in whose areas such incidents takes place, so that the lives of personnel involved in the accidents could be saved. The DRM may immediately approach the respective NDRF Commandant under whose area of responsibility the above incident took place with information to NDMA. Sh. K.M.Singh , Hon’ble Member of NDMA is required also to be simultaneously appraised with the situation by the Ministry of Railway and NDRF Bn commandants. The NDRF teams along with all available equipments will move immediately to the nearest approachable site of Railway disaster to carry out the task.

4. Interaction between NDRF & Railway safety The interaction always plays a great role for managing disaster and therefore, it was decided that a regular coordination meeting between NDRF Bn Commandant and Railway Safety officers/DRM be held, so that they know each other’s capacity and capabilities to deal with any emergent situation. Such capabilities to deal with any emergent situation. Such meeting could be arranged by respective DRMs with information to DG NDRF and NDMA. 5. Mock Exercises The mock exercises play an important role in preparing the stakeholders and others engaged in managing disasters. It also gives an opportunity to fill up the gaps left, if any, during course of managing the actual disaster, Therefore, it was decided that whenever mock

Exercises are undertaken in the State (s) by the NDMS, the Railway safety officials would also be associated and the Railway facilities. Infrastructure available could be incorporated in the composite management of disaster. The Railway safety has a number of proactive arrangements. Placed at different locations, which can be very handy and useful even for NDMA.

6. Training of Trainers. The NDMA has offered to train the Trainers of various Police training Intuitions in management of disaster as part of capacity building in respective Police Forces of the country. Trainers, posted in various Trg. Centers of Railway Protection Force (RPF) has to be requisitioned. It was decided that RPF would indicate the requirement so that the above training could be planned at one of the NDRF premier training center at NISA Hyderabad.

7.Exposure to NDRF Personnel The management of Railway disaster/accident has entirely a different approach and therefore, it was felt necessary that NDRF personnel be exposed to design and the safety measures available in Railway bogies/coaches so that they are effective while carrying out the rescue operation of the trapped passengers at the accident site .In view of the above ,it was decided that the respective DRM will provide an opportunity to facilitate the training of NDRM personnel with their various Railway safety training to acquaint the NDRF personnel .

8. Railway Safety has enough capacity & capability to handle the minor Railway disaster but on occasions ,it gets struck due to inaccessible terrain/site of disaster and also due to insufficient medical support due to a large number of personnel /passengers being injured .NDRF BNs have sufficient number of personnel trained in helislithering and it may be possible to helidrop trained NDRF personnel at the site in case of major disasters once S.O.P for the same is finalized .However ,till it is finalized ,the Railway will have to take care of transporting the Rescue Teams with equipments to the site of disaster / accident site from nearest approachable location.

Zonal Railways should get in touch with NDRF officers at the nearby NDRF locations to have the first hand knowledge of the resources available with them and also familiarize NDRF task force with railway related disaster situations and expose them to the issues relevant to rescue and relief of passengers during railway accidents. Railways may also associate NDRF in the full-scale exercise that is held once every year. Zonal railways nearest to the respective NDRF battalion locations may coordinate with them accordingly. There are no charges for availing the services of NDRF except the rail transportation which Railways may provide at their cost for attending to rail accidents. Railway may also have to provide the rail transportation logistics for transporting NDRF in case of non-railway exigencies. Board have also empowered Divisional Railway Managers to directly requisition the relevant NDRF battalion for relief and rescue operations depending upon the gravity of situation so that their services could be mace available expeditiously at the time of major railway disasters without any loss of time. However, requisitioning or NDRF should be judicious and NDM control room under Ministry of Home Affairs (Tele No. 11-23092885, Fax No. 011-23093750) and security control room (Telephone 011-23387981 Fax No. 011- 23303983) and Safety cell tele fax No. 011-23382638) in the office of Railway Board must be kept informed. This is issued in consultation with National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) having the administrative control of NDRF.
