not only for marks but to increases the knowledge.

Analysis of floods in India

India, being a peninsular country and


surrounded by the Arabian Sea,
Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal,
is quite prone to flood. As per the
Geological Survey of India (GSI), the
major flood prone areas of India
cover almost 12.5% area of the
country.

What is flood?

Floods are the most frequent type of natural disaster and occur when an
overflow of water submerges land that is usually dry. Floods are often caused
by heavy rainfall, rapid snowmelt or a storm surge from a tropical cyclone or
tsunami in coastal areas.

Floods can cause widespread devastation, resulting in loss of life and


damages to personal property and critical public health infrastructure. Between
1998-2017, floods affected more than 2 billion people worldwide. People who
live in floodplains or non-resistant buildings, or lack warning systems and
awareness of flooding hazard, are most vulnerable to floods.

There are 3 common types of floods:

 Flash floods are caused by rapid and excessive rainfall that raises water heights
quickly, and rivers, streams, channels or roads may be overtaken.
 River floods are caused when consistent rain or snow melt forces a river
to exceed capacity.
 Coastal floods are caused by storm surges associated with tropical
cyclones and tsunami.

Between 80-90% of all documented disasters from natural hazards during the
past 10 years have resulted from floods, droughts, tropical

cyclones, heat waves and severe storms. Floods are also increasing in
frequency and intensity, and the frequency and intensity of extreme
precipitation is expected to continue to increase due to climate change.
Floods and disaster in India
According to the National Emergency Response Centre
(NDMI), on 9-10 September, at least 13 people died,
almost 1,400 have been affected and more than 1,200
evacuated across the States of Assam, Gujarat,
Karnataka, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand
and Uttar Pradesh. Since the beginning of the rainy
season, almost 1,800 people had died, 89 remained
missing, more than 1,100 had been injured and 1.3
million people had been evacuated. (ECHO, 9 Sep 2022)

On 23-24 September, heavy rainfall and thunderstorms


were reported across northern India, resulting in at
least 36 fatalities. According to media reports, 24
people died in Uttar Pradesh due to heavy rainfall-
related accidents, while 12 other individuals died after
lighting events. Since June, more than 1,945 have died
across India, due to the heavy monsoon rains, as
reported by the National Emergency Response Centre
(NDMI). About 90 people were missing and 1,260
individuals sustained injuries. (ECHO, 26 Sep 2022)
Worst affected states from flood
First five states are prominent which were affected by
floods in India are Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat,
Kerala, Madhya Pradesh.
Which state is most affected by floods?
India is a peninsular country surrounded by the Indian Ocean,
Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal. This geographical placement
makes the country prone to floods.

World’s 15 Countries with the Most People
Exposed to River Floods
Those floods may have been the most dramatic of recent river
floods, but the threat extends well beyond Southeast Asia. More
people are affected by floods than by any other type of natural
disaster. New analysis shows that approximately 21 million
people worldwide are affected by river floods each year on
average. That number could increase to 54 million in 2030 due to
climate change and socio-economic development.
Floods test conducted by different Countries in the
World
conclusion

Floods may be frightening, but it is up


to us to make sure they do not interfere
with our daily life. Pools, ponds, and
other reservoirs should all be kept in
good condition. Floods can be
prevented if soil conditions improve,
allowing for easier water absorption.
During floods, flood barriers can be
used as protection. It is expected that
floods will be affected by climate
change due to changes in rainfall,
temperature, sea level, and river
fluctuations. As a result, your
assessment of the risk of floods should
take into account the effects of climate
change on flood hazards.
Thank you
