Explanation:
Issue of flood warning: - Floods are caused by overflowing rivers or by excessive rains. As a safe guard against this calamity it is most essential that warning regarding approaching floods in rivers are issued and conveyed promptly to all concerned such as the Sub-Divisional Officers (Civil), Deputy Commissioners, Commissioners and the Financial Commissioner, Revenue, where necessary.
2. The Punjab Irrigation Department has already fixed the intensity of ‘low’, ‘medium’ and ‘high’ floods for various rivers in cusecs as per Statement No. 1. On the basis of the intensity fixed, the flood warnings are issued and conveyed to the irrigation authorities and other civil officers as per Statement No. II. Warnings intended for the Irrigation Officers are sent by Canal Wire, where possible, and by telegrams to other Civil Officers. The Irrigation Branch Officers listed in the Statement No. III are authorised to use the priority indication ‘IMMEDIATE’ in the Fax, inland telegrams for conveying flood warnings during the period from June 15 to November 15. During October 1 to March 31, warnings are issued immediately when a river rises to the ‘low’ flood level. For the period from April to September 30, flood warnings are issued only when a river reaches the ‘medium’ flood stage. No warnings are issued for ‘low’ floods during summer. As a river rises to each successive stage of ‘low’, ‘medium’, and ‘High’ flood, warnings are sent in the following form: -
“(NAME OF RIVER) AT (NAME OF SITE) LOW/ MEDIUM/ HIGH Flood--------------Cusecs---------------Hours”
(time to be stated by 24 hour clock--------------date) Rising/falling
(Designation of sender)
In case of rising floods, a peak warning is given in the following form:
“(NAME OF RIVER) at (NAME OF SITE) -------------------- Maximum cusecs---------------------Hours (time to be stated by 24 hour clock) --------------- (date) falling.
(Designation of sender)
The list of officers to whom warnings should be sent by telegram is given in column 5-B of Appendix ‘A’. The Commissioners and other Officers concerned with flood relief should be able to judge from figures of the discharge of water conveyed through such warnings, the extent of likely danger to different villages. No hard and fast rule can be laid down in the matter and there is also no certainty as to which areas will be affected by floods. District Officers will, of course, be guided by the past experience in this behalf. Each Deputy Commissioner should collect statistics, in collaboration with the local officers of the Irrigation Department, regarding floods that had visited the districts during the past years, the extent of damaged caused, area flooded etc. etc. This information should be compiled in the proforma shown in Appendix ‘B’. Copies of this statement should be sent to the Commissioners of Divisions and Financial Commissioner Revenue.
Reporting of a serious situation through Police Radio: - When the circumstances so warrant, the agency of the police should be used to report a serious situation. However, the following points may be kept in view: -
(i) The Police Wireless should be used only when there is failure of telephone and telegraph lines and the flood situation is grave and emergent.
(ii) While sending a message through the Police radio to the Financial Commissioner (Revenue), the Deputy Commissioners should also address the same message to the Chief Secretary to Government, Punjab, Chandigarh for granting permission for the use of police radio and also requesting him to get ex–post facto sanction of the Government of India in the concerned Ministry.
(iii) A postal copy of the wireless message with a certificate that the radio channel was utilized on the failure of the normal telephone and telegraph lines and that the flood situation was grave and emergent should be sent by the Deputy Commissioners to the Joint Secretary, Home Department, with a copy to the Inspector General of Police, Punjab.
