With the increased rate of socio-economic activities due to fast-growing population and urbanization, disasters especially earthquakes, even today lead to large-scale destruction and loss of life. Urbanisation and rapid development of cities depend upon their location in regard to ecology, geology, demographic structure, economic opportunities and land use pattern. Thus, with people moving towards urban centers, the scale of risk and vulnerability is ever increasing. In developing countries like India, the socio-economic setup of cities becomes imbalanced mainly due to unauthorised construction taking place, lack in the enforcement of guidelines and forcing the poor to live in the most vulnerable areas within it.
