he Heat Wave Action Plan of Gorakhpur focuses on creating a dynamic early warning dissemination network to alert communities based on forecasts from the India Meteorological Department (IMD). It assigns clear responsibilities to stakeholders, such as establishing heatwave relief shelters, providing drinking water, and ensuring health facilities are operational. The plan emphasizes preparedness by training school and community responders like Aapda Mitra to assist vulnerable populations, including children, pregnant women, the elderly, and differently-abled individuals. It promotes cost-effective climate adaptation measures and strengthens public outreach through media channels, messaging platforms, and coordinated communication by the DDMA and Municipal Corporation.
