Disaster Management in Hamirpur

Earthquakes can be devastating. It is true that Hamirpur falls under medium vulnerable status; but according to BIS seismic zoning, 90.9% of the total area of the district is liable to earthquake. Besides, this area is also vulnerable to landslides and flash floods in a medium way. Forest fire is also another challenge that Hamirpur has to cope off and on.

For tackling such disaster, the State government has formed different committees, headed by experts in this line. They have provided specific Disaster Management Policy, which aims to reduce, prevent and mitigate disaster risks.  Post disaster relief, rehabilitation and reconstruction of infrastructure are also their responsibility.

However, at local level, the district officials have to take up the charge, at least initially. The District Commissioner, being head of the administrative set up of the district, has to take the first initiative. Let us therefore, first look into the contact details of the DC:

Deputy Commissioner of Hamirpur
Office Phone Number: 01972-22430001972-224300
Residential Phone Number: 01972-22434301972-224343
Fax: 01972-222437
Email: dc-ham-hp@nic.in

However, in case of forest fire or other disasters taking place within the forest area, it is best to contact the Divisional Forest Officer or the DFO. His Phone number is - 1972-223-217.
