        abstract = {Disaster management is a crucial interdisciplinary field aimed at minimizing the impacts of natural and anthropogenic disasters by the implementation of strategic strategies for mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. In light of the increasing frequency and severity of disasters attributed to factors like climate change and urbanization, it is essential to adopt a proactive and flexible strategy. This article analyzes the comprehensive framework of disaster management, highlighting the legal basis provided by the Disaster Management Act of 2005 in India. This legislation establishes significant entities such as the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF).
The article examines the need of employing advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to enhance early warning systems, real-time monitoring, and efficient resource allocation. The article emphasizes the significance of community engagement, examining how public education and local capacity building foster resilience.},
