Geographical situation of the state
  • 17 of the countrys Flood area in Bihar
  • Frequent change of river course
  • Frequent Droughts
  • High wind velocity in most parts of the state
  • Quite often hailstorms
  • Recurrent village fires in hot summer months
  • Cold wave
  • Earthquake Zone-IV V
  • Some districts of North Bihar as vulnerable as
    Bhuj

11
  • 37 of the total area vulnerable to flood.
  • 76 of North Bihar prone to floods.
  • 61 of the catchment area lies in Nepal Tibet.
  • All major rivers like Kosi,Gandak,Bagmati,Mahanan
    da and Adhwara group of rivers originate in
    Nepal.
  • Steep gradient of Himalayan ranges carries lot of
    silt to the plains of North Bihar.
  • Floods in Bihar is thus a national issue and the
    solution can not be arrived at without
    intervention and assistance from Nepal.
  • Better coordination and information sharing with
    Nepal is a prerequisite for any flood
    preparedness and its management.

12
  • 3430 km of embankments were constructed to
    protect 29.49 lakh hectare area ( 39.64 lakh
    hectare area still not protected)
  • Moreover embankments do not provide succor from
    the floods as the rainfall in the catchment area
    of Nepal results in overtopping of the
    embankments and its breach too.
  • 17 of the area is water logged which too needs
    immediate solution.
  • Long term measures may include construction of
    flood cushions in Nepal catchment areas and also
    high dams which again need considerable research
    resources along with intervention at National
    level.

13
FLOODS
  • Heavy rainfall in the catchment areas of Bagmati,
    Kamla-Balan, Budhi-Gandak, the Adhwara group of
    rivers, Kosi and Mahananda, in the very first
    week of July, 2004 led to unprecedented floods in
    20 districts of Bihar.
  • Rivers rose above danger levels and protective
    embankments were breached at 54 points inundating
    and devastating vast stretches of thickly
    populated areas. So much so that the extent and
    impact of the floods left the flood record of
    1987 far behind.

14
DISTRICTS
  • Sitamarhi, Sheohar, Darbhanga, Madhubani, Supaul,
    Khagaria, East Champaran,Kishanganj, Samastipur,

  • Begusarai,Bhagalpur, Muzaffarpur, Katihar,
    Purnea, West Champaran, Gopalganj and Vaishali
    were partly affected.

15
COMMUNICATION
  • Communication disrupted with Sitamarhi, Sheohar,
    Darbhanga, Madhubani Khagaria.
  • Satellite Phones were installed with the support
    from MHA in above districts.
  • Ham Radios were used in Sheohar Sitamarhi
    Districts for restoring communication gaps.
  • Road links were also snapped. Requisition for
    Bally bridges have been made from the MHA
