India Is Being Tormented By Monsoon Flooding

by zenmistress2002

It does not seem to matter where we look around the world these
days we can somewhere that is having flooding. While some areas
of the world are suffering from extreme droughts, the reverse is
true for others. The monsoon season lasts from June until
September and people who live in their normal paths are used to
some flooding, but this time is on a more catastrophic level.
They always needs the rains at this time of year to ensure good
crops, but when Mother Nature over does it, it can mean
destruction and devastation instead.

The area of the north Indian state of Bihar has been the most
recent recipient of excessive flooding. Last week the Kosi River
over extended her banks and brought the flooding. Over one
million people have been affected by this up until now. Rescue
efforts are still going on and the Bihar state has asked for help
from relief agencies in order to be able to help those who are in
need of food and shelter. These people in need have been severed
from the rest of the country because their roads and railways are
under water leaving them with no real way to get out.

One thing that is being dealt with as a result of the Kosi River
flooding is that it seemed to be flooding in areas that were not
normally affected at this time of the year. This is devastating
because the people who live in the areas that were flooded
unexpectedly were not prepared in any way. Not that you can
really be prepared well for a flood at ant time, but sometimes
when resident realize that they can easily be flooded, they might
at least have a plan of action to take in place when floods do
come.

In America, the Gulf Coast is still recovering from the
ravishment of Hurricane Katrina, which was one of the worst
flooding disasters that we have seen. The Midwestern United
States also suffered flooding this past spring that was not
expected either. The pictures of the flooded regions of India are
eerily similar to the pictures we viewed of Louisiana and the
Midwest after our floods. It is so hard to imagine being stranded
with your family in a situation like this unless you have
actually experienced it.

Floods have always been a part of the world just as other kinds
of natural disasters have been. We humans seem to be resilient
enough to overcome them and move on in the end despite the huge
amount of suffering and loss that we go through. Hopefully those
in India will be able to do the same.
