A flood is an overflow of water that submerges land that is usually dry.

Impacts of flooding include loss of human life, damage to property, destruction of crops, loss of livestock, and deterioration of health conditions owing to waterborne diseases.

Floods impact on both individuals and communities, and have social, economic, and environmental consequences. This year Pakistan had heavy rain fall and some parts of Sindh and Balochistan we’re ruined that caused people’s life it was an extremely traumatic day.

People lost their home, crops and lost their family members.

This had lot of impact in Pakistan’s economic and environmental.

The flood caused was not only by monsoon rains but also by flash floods from mountains.

That caused the disease called dengue to resurface.

The occurrence of floods every year results in the loss of economic and precious lives of human beings.

Flood control and management are essential today to control floods.

Though, we cannot prevent natural causes like heavy rain caused by the bursting of clouds and the melting of glaciers.
