Abstract
This paper deals with the most simplistic logistics that is usually applied or can be applied to ensure proper relief and rescue operation during a disaster, be it natural or man-made. The basic problems of rescue and relief operations during an emergency or a disaster are very trivial yet they pose the most critical danger: proper delineation of the affected zone; the immediate loss that can be accounted for; the immediate help and resources needed to sustain the population; tracking of local rescue operators; tracking, positioning, and monitoring the activities of the deployed rescue workers; accounting the safe and usable resources; accounting the resources, goods, and relief materials distributed during relief and rehabilitation operation; monitoring the utilization of the resources distributed; and ensuring just and equitable distribution. Thus, it is only after the initial trauma of disaster that rescue and relief operations become a priority and play the most vital role in proper revival of the affected population.
