Answer 1

Answer:

D. ഒന്നും മൂന്നും

• Target-oriented preparedness emphasizes a tailored approach to disaster readiness, acknowledging that different groups and areas have distinct vulnerabilities and needs. This specificity allows for the development of highly effective and relevant plans. For instance, children require different evacuation procedures and psychological support compared to adults, and the elderly or disabled may need assistance with mobility or access to specialized care. This category ensures that preparedness efforts are inclusive and address the unique requirements of all segments of society, including animals, leading to more equitable and effective outcomes during a disaster.
