520 _aInadequate resources, technologies and cooperation among different agencies and government have made managing disasters in Nepal a daunting and herculean task. Although the perception that {u2018}floods are regular and common phenomena{u2019} in the region remains a bitter truth that needs outright attention and actions, they are countered mainly by relief operationsrather than mitigation actions, and the fragile forecasting operations in floods of 2014 proves rightly so. Imbalances in policy and practice in disaster responses have reluctantly been influenced by shifts in government rulings, lack of coordination among international agencies and unstable disaster management practices. Proper disaster response mechanisms in league with endeavor to replace old legislations by fostering strong coordination among agencies is the need of the hour to address problems in gapsin policies and implementation. This thesis hence studies the reasons for why the response efforts did not align with the disaster management legislation, strategies, policies and plans {u2013}while responding to the 2014 floods in Bardiya.The study was conducted using both primary as well as secondary data. Information will mostly be collected from primary sources, while in some cases, secondary sources like journals, articles, books and reports will also be considered. Bardiya district was selected purposely, and given the lack of resources and time constraints for the study to cover the entire district, the study conducted purposive sampling to choose the most affected VDC in Bardiya district, namely Baniyabhar VDC. Simple random sampling was used to generate the sample households from the nine wards in Baniyabhar VDC.
