मध्य हिमालय में बारिश का पैटर्न बदल चुका है, कुछ घंटों में महीनों जितनी बारिश, और नदियाँ पहले से अधिक उफनती हुई। नई वैज्ञानिक स्टडी चेतावनी देती है कि आने वाले दशकों में बाढ़ सिर्फ बढ़ेगी ही नहीं, बल्कि पहाड़ों की ज़िंदगी की दिशा ही बदल देगी।

The formation of three consecutive low pressure areas in the Bay of Bengal has resulted in heavy downpour in the coastal state. The floods have not only disrupted transport and connectivity across the Mahanadi river basin but also posed serious worries for the farmers who are staring at losses. Also, there is little hope of respite for the affected population as there is forecast for further rainfall tomorrow.

Around 73% of Bihar’s total geographical area is prone to floods as plains of the state, which are close to Nepal, are drained by a number of rivers that have their catchments in the Himalayas of Nepal. These rivers and their tributaries carry high levels of discharge and sediment load, which are deposited on the plains of Bihar thus causing floods

Heavy downpour has caused severe waterlogging in the northeastern city, which has an intricate network of rivers and beels (wetlands) that form its natural drainage system. But encroachment on water bodies has increased the incidence of urban flooding.

Bangladesh is no stranger to floods. Almost every year, the country battles them during the monsoon season. However, this year unprecedented heavy rainfall has brought devastating floods, earlier than usual in the month of May. It's been almost two months and the north and northeastern regions of the country are still struggling as flood waters have washed away millions of houses and inundated hundreds of thousand hectares of farmlands. A ground report from the flood-hit Sylhet region.

The Bihar government has officially declared 11 districts as drought-hit. Meanwhile, several other districts have been hit by the floods this month in October. Agricultural scientists warn that the changing monsoon rainfall patterns were a direct threat to the livelihoods of millions of farmers in the state, and there is a need to adopt alternative farming practices.

The state government claims that it has done its bit to help those affected by floods, but the ground reality is quite different.As per the official data, 81 lakh people were directly affected in the state, but more than 60 lakh couldn't find a place in any relief camps, because there were none. Similarly, 835 community kitchens were set up in 12 districts comprising 105 blocks and 1,240 panchayats. This means, there was one community kitchen for more than 7,000 people

During May-June this year, the northeastern region of Bangladesh was hit by heavy monsoon rains and flash floods. Millions were affected, and many of them are still displaced with no source of livelihood. Both debt and hunger are on the rise.
