National Strategy for Disaster Risk Management is a National Framework with commitment of the Government of Nepal for protection, growth, and promotion of national heritages and physical infrastructures. Absence of mainstreaming disaster reduction in the development process in the past resulted not only in the loss of physical properties and human lives, but also destruction's of basic infrastructures. Thousands of people face tragic consequence of annual recurrence of disasters such as floods, landslides, fires etc. The fact that beside the important role of the government in disaster risk reduction, every person and community has equally important role to play is obvious from instances of disasters caused due to haphazard construction of buildings and other structures.
