After all the root of proper business development lies in the well-being of the society. Business houses come to mind only as a source for fund raising. While government has responsibilities on one side the business also has equal responsibilities if not more to the society in such situations of dire needs. After all the business happens only due to existence of such societies and business needs shoulder its share of responsibilities.
Disaster permeates every corner of the society.
It does not spare the rich or the poor. This affects individuals, business and organisations. There are economic losses-direct and Indirect. The first to get affected is the infrastructure - the railways and roads. All the utilities get affected - the telephone lines get broken, the electricity is disrupted, water pipes get broken and water gets contaminated.
