Evaluating the Effectiveness of India's Flood Management Laws.

The Brahmaputra River, which flows from China to India and Bangladesh too always has been the focus of flood vulnerability for years. Heavy rains, climate change, unplanned placement of human life, deforestation are some core reasons which have made this region one of the most flood prone areas in India. Back from 2012 to 2022, regular number of floods have caused massive destruction which resulted in taking lives, displacement families, ruining agricultural land and produce, damaging property and infrastructure, etc. wildlife, specially in places like Kazi Ranga National Park has also suffered greatly. Poor drainage system, temporary embankment fails and glacial melting like situations merely worsened the situation and just added fuel to the existing miserable conditions. This flood situation also contaminated the water bodies and rivers which eventually resulted in disease out breaks, food shortages, insecurity of resources, and economic hardships. But, to prevent the future disasters, better management pf all resources, early warning systems, planned human settlement and sustainable environment practices or maintenance of ecosystem are critical than ever.
