1 Introduction

History of the District The Fatehabad district was carved out of Hisar district on 15-07-1997. The District derives its name from its head Quarter town Fatehabad The town was founded by Firuz Shah Tughlak in the 14th Century. He named it afterhis son Fateha Khan, as Fatehabad. The first record of the administrative division of the district is found in Ain-in-Akbri. Much of the area lying in the present Hisar district was covered by mahlas of Agroha, Ahorni, Barwala, Bhattu, Tohana, Hisar, Fatehabad and Hansi. The mahlas formed part of Hisar Feroza Sarkar of the Delhi Subah. superannuation. With the decline of the Mughal Empire, the tract Comprising Fatehabad district came under the control of Marthas. The whole of Delhi territory of which the tract formed part, was ceded by the Marathas to the British in 1810. The Delhi territory was divided into two district Delhi, directly under the Resident and the outlying district including Hansi, Hisar, Sirsa, Rohtak, Panipat and Fatehabad under the immediate charge of an Assistant to the Resident. Again in 1819, Delhi territory was devided into 3 districts namely; the central which included Delhi, southern district comprising Rewri etc. and northwestren district comprising Panipat, Hansi, Hisar, Sirsa and Rohtak. In 1820 the north western district was sub-divided into 2 separate district, the northeren and the western. The western district included Bhiwani, Hansi Hisar and Sirsa and its headquarters were at Hansi. In 1824, Rohatk , which had previously been under the western district was constituted into a separate district to which Bhiwani was transferred. The head quarter of the district was shifted from Hansi to Hisar in 1832. The district was than divide into 4 Tehsil of Hisar district,

Fatehabad , Hansi , and Tosham . In 1837 , Ratia and Tohana parganas were added to the Hisar district and were formed into a separate Tehsil of Tohana. The Sirsa tract was detached in 1837 from the Hisar District and placed under a separate officer styled as the superintendent of Bhatiana. The pargana of Darba and the pargana of Rori were transferred to Bhatiana in 1838 and 1847 respectively. In 1852, the pargana of Ratia was transferred from Tohana Tehsil to Fatehabad Tehsil and Barwala pargana was detached from Hisar Tehsil and was formed into a separate Tehsil of Barwala along with Tohana. The whole of Delhi territory along with district of Bhatiana and Hisar were transferred to the Punjab in 1858 and the district of Bhatiana was renamed as Sirsa. In 1861 Bhiwani Tehsil was detached from Rohtak and added to Hisar district. The Tosham Tehsil was abolished and added to Bhiwani Tehsil in the same year. The Hisar district gained 24 Villages from Meham Bhiwani Tehsil of Rohtak district: 18 villages including the town of Bhiwani were added to the Bhiwani Tehsil and 6 villages to the Hansi Tehsil Besides, 5 villages confiscated from Nawab of Jhajjar and 12 villages received from the Maharaja of jind were added to Bhiwani Tehsil and Barwala Tehsil respectively. November, 1884, the Sirsa district was abolished and Sirsa Tehsil with 199 villages and 126 villages of Dabawali Tehsil were added to the Hisar district and formed the Sirsa Tehsil. In 1889, 15 villages, forming a detached block known as Bhudlada ilaqua, were transferred from Kaithal Tehsil to Fatehabad Tehsil. The Barwala Tehsil containing 139 villages was abolished with effect from January1st 1891, and its area was distributed between 3 contiguous Tehsil, 13 villages going to


7

Hansi , 24 to Hisar and 102 to Fatehabad. At the same time 13 villages were transfrerred from Hisar Tehsil to the Bhiwani Tehsil and

a sub-Tehsil was established at Tohana in Fatehabad Tehsil.

A village from Fatehabad Tehsil and another from Sirsa Tehsil were transferred to Bikaner in 1905 and 1906 respectively. Again in 1910-11 , the district lost 2 villages to Bikaner. In 1923, the Tohana sub- Tehsil was transferred from Fatehabad to Hisar Tehsil. No transfer of territory to or from the district took place till the passing of the provinces and states ( Absorption of Enclaves ) Order, 1950, by which the erstwhile princely state of Loharu was merged in the district and 15 villages comprising \bhudlada were taken out of Hisar district and added to Bhatinda district. In 1962 , 3 villages were transferred from Dadri Tehsil of Mahanedargarh district to Bhiwani Tehsil. The entire area of the district was included in the new state of Haryana on November, 1, 1966. in 1968 , Sirsa Tehsil was bifurcated into Sirsaand Dabawali Tehsil and Bhiwani bifurcated into bhiwani and loharu . In 1969 , a village was transferred from Dadri Tehsil to bhiwani . The above administrative arrangement continued till 1972 when whole of Loharu and Bhiwani Tehsils, 32 villages of Hansi and 17 villages of Hisar Tehsils were excluded and included in the newly formed bhiwani district. Tohana sub Tehsil of the Hisar Tehsil was upgraded to a Tehsil in 1972. In 1974 , 4 villages were transferred from Hansi to Hisar Tehsil , 18 villages

from Hisar to Hansi Tehsil 2 vilages form Hisar to Fatehabad Tehsil , 18 villages from Tohana to Fatehabad Tehsil , 9 villages from Fatehabad to Tohana Tehsil , 10 villages from Fatehabad to Hisar Tehsil , 3 villages from Dabawali to Sirsa Tehsil and 1 villages from Hansi Tehsil to jind tehsil of jind district. In 1975, Sirsa and dabwali Tehsil were excluded from the district and a new district of Sirsa was carved out . thus by end of 1978, Fatehabad part of Hisar district comprised 244 villages , divided between Tehsil of Fatehabad 166, and Tohana 86.

INTRODUCTION

Geographical setting of the District

Fatehabad District has been

created in the year 1997. Both in terms of area and population it has an area of over 2,41,784 hectares with a population of 9,41,522 as per 2011 Census. It is located in the semiarid track at latitude of 29.10 and a longitude of 75.46 in the subtropical Zone. The district has its headquarters at the Fatehabad City. The district is not exposed to flood every year, but during the year of heavy rains parts of this district are adversely affected. Such adverse years in recent history had been 1962, 1976-77, 1983, 1988, 1993, 1995 and 1998, 2010 witnessed unprecedented floods.

Administrative set up of the district

The District, divided into Three Sub-Divisions, Three Tehsils, 4 Sub-Tehsils and 6 Blocks. The details of which are as under: -

It is surrounded by Punjab in North, district Hisar in South , district jind in East and and Rajastahan and district Sirsa in the west. The geographical area of the district is 2198 sq. km. which is 5.4% of the state share. Topography The district Fatehabad is an alluvial plain of indo-gegetic basin. No perennial river flows through the district , however a seasonal river i.e ghaggar is flowing through Ratia and Jakhal. Bhakra and western yamuna are two main canals that irrigate most of the part of district. Climate The climate is tropical type with intensively hot summer and coolwinter, and temperature ranging from 47 in June and 2 c in December andJanuary. The average rainfall of district is 400 MM. The district is part of the alluvial or ghaggar yamuna plain and its southern and western portions mark of a gradual transition to the that desert. The topographic pattern of the district owes its existence to geomorphic process having closer affinity with the climate aridity, both of the recent and past geologic periods. Thought almost the entire district the dominant feature of topography is the occurrence of eolian sand of variable shape and thickness overlying the Pleistocene alluvium which becomes fewer as the eastern border of the district is approached . The only variation from this description is found in the north, a tract locally known as nail. The mean attitude varies between 210 and 220 meters and it generally slopes from northern east to south west with a gentle gradient of 1 in 4000. The district can be sub divided into following topographic units Sub- recent alluvial plain Late quaternary to sub recent sand dune areas; and Plain with sand dunes. River system and water resources Ghaggar , the largest seasonal stream in Haryana enters the districtas deeply incised alluvial channel near jakhal and makes an exit little ot the west of Bira badi (Fatehabad Tehsil) Covering the

distance in meandering course some 70 kilometres long. The river maintains a rough parallelism with most of the northern boundary deviating from it by a margin of some 7 kilometres and at times delineating the northern limits of the district. The ghagghar is a misfit stream since the scant volume of discharge stands in marked contrast to its large channel width. The river drains large volumes of floodflow during the rainly season mostly between July and September and is generally dry in summer . However , the inflow of ground water takes place till as October. According to different explorers and scientists, the Ghagghar was once an important river system of the north- western India during the pleistocene period. It is believed that the river began to dry up first in the 11th century and dried-up completely before the 13th century A.D. The hydro graphic changes since the historic time resulted in the depletion of discharge in to the Ghagghar channel. The Yamuna and the Satluj which formed the eastern and western tributaries of once mighty Ghagghar river system deserted the parent river to join the Ganga and the Indus system. There is ,however a snag as it fails to account for the five prominent non-cyclic terraces of the Ghagghar near Panchukla (Ambala district) the joiya takes off from the south bank of the Ghagghar about 8 kilometers north of the district boundary at phulad (Sngrur district Punjab). The channel makes snake like meanderings and its supply has been seriously lessened by silting up of the head. It is said that it was much bigger than the Ghagghar and use to flow through the district and on through Mansa Tehsil (Bathinda district Punjab) in to Sirsa district where it rejoined the Ghagghar. Another dried up channel known as Sukar or Sakru is indicated to the south of joiya channel. The old dried up courses of these streams run parallel to the Ghagghar and can still be traced- the land between them is known as sotar valley. The valley is 2 to 4 kms wide and even more at place. From the appearance of the valley and numerous ancient mounds and remainsof old settlements all along its both banks, it is evident that at one time it conveyed a much larger volume of water and probably was the chanel of a perennial stream. This may possibly be the dried up course of the Sarasvati ofthe Rigvedic fame.

The Joiya stream had long ceased to cary water to Sirsa and onward and had become very much smaller than the Ghagghar. This is due in part to the silting up of the head of the former stream and deepening of the bed of the Ghagghar and it was only in high floods that water passed from the Ghagghar into the joiya at Phulad. Initially , it is said, that Firuz Shah Tughlaq channeled this stream up to Fatehabad town. Later during the 19th century, a Rangoli channel to utilize floods

flow of the Ghagghar was dug to connect the Ghagghar with the joiya and it ran from Qasimpur to Kalandargarh beyond which it ran into the joiya. Later ,the old joiya channel below Kalandargarh was also canalized .The Rangoli inundation canal is now used for utilizing floods flow of the Ghagghar for irrigating some areas in Tohana and Fatehabad Tehsils. There are two swamps,one at Musa Khera and the other below the town of Fatehabad. These are not perennial and get filled only in rainy season.

Geology Hard rock geology of the district is concealed under alluvial and Aeolian deposits. The alluvial deposits of quaternary age are divisible as newer and older. The former usually occurs in the active floodplain of the Ghagghar River, in the northern part of the district and comprises sand, silt clay and occasional gravel. Calcareous concretions in various proportions are found mixed with other constituents. The sediments are heterogeneous in character, and are deposited on a basement of metamorphic and igneous rocks of pre-Cambrian age. The bed rock topography over which the alluvial deposits rest, slopes towards north-east. The maximum thickness of alluvium as encountered in a borehole at Jhalnian (Fatehabad Tehsil) is 345.51 meters below ground level. Ground water

The sub-soil water of the district is overall brackish. The quality of water varies from place to place and from well to well. The sweets water is founded from located in areas having ameliorating factors like exisiting or old stream course. Long-standing irrigation, seepage from kuchcha tanks, etc. At some places wells situated on bare dunes of loose shifting sands yield good quality of water because most of the rain water unable to flow, sinks underground to improve the groundwater by dilution. The extensive canal irrigation introduced by the Bhakra Nangal Project has caused rapid changes in water table configration. The water level has risen by 2 to 7 meters in this area from 1974to 1978. The water tables is within 15 meters of the surface along the Ghagghar channel and in the command area of the Ratia branch system. Here the ground water is fresh to marginal in quality and extensively exploited for minor irrigation. The water level is up to , 15 meters deep in the central


10

part of the district. Elsewhere , the grounds water is very deep 20 meters and more from the surface. The water is saline and unfit forks for domestic consumption and agricultural purposes. With the lining of canals now in progress , seepage from canals will drastically reduce, resulting in the slower rate of accretion to ground water resources.

destruction of, property, or damage to, or degradation of, environment, and is of such a nature or magnitude as to be beyond the coping capacity of the community of the affected area; "Disaster management" means a continuous and integrated process of planning, organising, coordinating and implementing


12

measures which are necessary or expedient for- (i) prevention of danger or threat of any disaster; (ii) mitigation or reduction of risk of any disaster or its severity or consequences; (iii) capacity-building; (iv) preparedness to deal with any disaster; (v) prompt response to any threatening disaster situation or disaster; (vi) assessing the severity or magnitude of effects of any disaster; (vii) evacuation, rescue and relief; (viii) rehabilitation and reconstruction; "District Disaster Management Plan" Disaster causes at times, sudden disruption to normal life of a society and causes damages to property and lives to such an extent that normal social and economic mechanisms available to the society get disrupted. In such cases, the existence of a disaster management plan plays a vital role. This would help the functionaries to respond to and to also issue directions to the other officials for effective management. District Disaster Management Plan [DDMP] is a plan that is document that allows the district administration to prepare for, mitigate and respond to disasters effectively. However it is felt that a comprehensive and holistic look at disaster, whether natural or man-made is imperative for an effective and implementable plan of action. The district plan contains the objective of the plan, profile of the district, resource inventory equipment and human resource, preparedness and mitigation strategy and the standard operating procedures for the District Disaster Management Committee and the Disaster Management Team. TYPE OF DISASTER 1. Flood

2. Earthquakes;

3. Fires;

4. Drought

5. Transport related accidents like air crash,

train accident, road accident involving

chemical

or inflammable materials;

6. Epidemics.

7. Others (like terrorist activity etc.)

The state has detailed plans for handling floods and droughts. Plans are also in place for wartime situation, civil strife and strikes. It is therefore hoped that these documents would fill in the gaps regarding handling the above kind of disasters and become the starting point for preparation of future periodic revisions and increasingly comprehensive disaster management plans. Aim of the District Disaster Management Plan The aim of the District Disaster Management Plan is to (i) take such measures as may be necessary to prevent occurrence of any disaster relating to fires, accidents, earthquakes, epidemics and industrial or chemical disasters; (ii) to mitigate the above disasters by having systems in place to minimize the loss of life and damage of property;12 (iii) have regular and effective training of Govt. officials and volunteers. In this connection the Disaster Management Plan would aim at making (identification and description of job & tasks with definite parameters for clear description and responsibilities) for personnel so that there is no confusion on role of various officials and agencies and command structure. (iv) have an effective response time so that relief and rescue is conducted immediately. The Disaster Management Plan ideally should aim at a 'zero disaster situation' but should unforeseen circumstances occur, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient level of preparedness with a cogent plan so that responsive action can be taken up immediately in the event of occurrence of any disaster.

4. Floods 5. Drought 6. Extreme Temperature 7. Lightening, Hailstorm & Cloud Burst 8. Nuclear/ Terrorist Attack Flood

The danger of the flood is only in the rainy season i.e. due to lack of proper drainage system in the district. The floods in Fatehabad and Tohana Sub Divisions are due to heavy rainfall in the catchment area of the Ghaggher. The last heavy floods were experienced in the year 1976-771983,,1988, 1993, 1995 and 1998,2005,2010.

FLOOD VULNERABILITY IN THE DISTRICT

Brief history of past flood in the district

Sr.no 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

year 1962 1976-77 1983 1988 1993 1994-95 1998 2010

The version of the people of Tohana and

Ratia are that 20 crops have been washed

away by the over spil of Ghaghar waters

during the last 50 years.

Flood risk and causes of flood

in the district

The main reason behind flood is

excessive discharge in Ghaghar(Rangoi

Khariff channel) leading to breach in the


17

Ghaghar and submerged area. Below table

1.4 shows a comparative analysis of

Rainfall and discharge (Lac Cusecs) in

Ghaghar(Rangoi Khariff channel) for last

10 years and 3.2 shows discharge and

flood risk. Besides this, there are several

pockets of low-lying areas such as some

villages of Tohana and Ratia block in the

district from which natural flow of

rainwater is not possible which results into

accumulation of surface as well as the

ground water and got submerged.
