The National Disaster Management Agency (NDMA) is an interior ministry agency whose main objective is to coordinate natural disasters or human-induced disasters and capacity building in disaster recovery and crisis response. NDMA was established through the "Disaster Management Act" promulgated by the Government of India in December 2005. The prime minister is the chairman of the authority of NDMA. Government agencies are responsible for policy formulation, guidelines and formulation of best practices, and coordination with the National Disaster Management Agency (SDMA) to ensure a comprehensive and decentralized disaster management approach.

Disaster management (or crisis management) is to create arrangements for the group to reduce helplessness and adapt to disasters. Disaster management does not distract or eliminate risks, but rather concentrates on reducing the impact of disasters. Failure to arrange may result in death, loss of income, and damage to resources. Currently, 60% of the US organizations do not have emergency management plans. Events focusing on disaster management include terrorist acts, industrial destruction, fire, natural disasters (earthquakes, hurricanes, etc.), barriers to public order, industrial accidents and communication failures.
