Abstract

The 2001 earthquake in Gujarat was among the costliest disasters in independent India. As per World Bank reports, the calamity is estimated to have caused losses of us $4.9 billion in terms of output. Adding the losses suffered by the informal sector can easily double this figure. Moreover, the state exchequer has been burdened with a huge fiscal deficit of us $2.2 billion in the three years since the calamity.
