According to the India National Commission on Irrigation and
Drainage (INCID), ‘Flood’ is defined as a relatively high flow or
stage in a river, marked by higher than the usual, causing
inundation of low land or a body of water, rising, swelling and
overflowing land that is not normally covered under water.
What is Flood ?
Floods are an excess of water that covers land that is normally
dry
Flooding is caused by the inadequate capacity within the banks of
the rivers to contain the high flows brought down from the upper
catchment due to heavy rainfall. Areas having poor drainage
characteristics get flooded by accumulation of water from heavy
rainfall.
