Answer:
New Delhi can be affected by floods and earthquakes.
Explanation:
New Delhi is the capital of the country and is located in North Eastern part of India. It is located near Yamuna River. New Delhi was made the capital of India in 1931. It has a total area of 42.7 km2. The city is located on the Indo-Gangetic Plain. The city is slightly elevated. New Delhi was once a part of the Aravali Range. Now only Delhi Ridge is left of the mountains. It is a landlocked city. New Delhi is also located on the seismic zone-IV making it easily vulnerable to unforeseen earthquakes.
The government at all times is prepared for natural disasters. Shelter homes and food is set aside for affected people in case of floods or earthquakes. Hefty amount of money is given to the people to console their damages. Before floods people are asked to evacuate the areas. The Indian Meteorological department predicts from weather to natural disasters, giving a heads up to the people and government.
