Figure 5-2: Vulnerability mapping of the infrastructure in the coastal districts of West Bengal<br />

Composite Index of Vulnerability for Infrastructure (I) has also been estimated by taking<br />

individual indexes into consideration for both physical <strong>and</strong> social infrastructure [Refer Table 5-3 <strong>and</strong><br />

Figure 5-3]. The functional form specified for aggregation is similar to the one used for estimating<br />

Composite Index of Vulnerability for Housing Stock [Refer Section 5.2.]<br />
