Bihar is India's most flood-prone State, with 76% of the population in the North Bihar living under the recurring threat of flood devastation.[1][2] According to some historical data, 16.5% of the total flood affected area in India is located in Bihar while 22.1% of the flood affected population in India lives in Bihar.[3] About 68,800 square kilometres (26,600 sq mi) out of total geographical area of 94,160 square kilometres (36,360 sq mi) comprising 73.06% is flood affected. Floods in Bihar are a recurring disaster which on an annual basis destroys thousands of human lives apart from livestock and assets worth millions.[4][2] Floods in Bihar have claimed 9,500 lives since the government started publishing figures in 1979.[5] The 2013 Flood in Bihar affected more than 5.9 million people in 3,768 villages in 20 districts of the state.[6] 2017 Floods affected 19 districts of North Bihar causing death of 514 people.[7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Around 1.71 crore people are hit by the floods.[14][15][16][17] This flood was result of sudden increase in water discharge through rivers – Gandak, Burhi Gandak and Bagmati, Kamla, Kosi and Mahananda – due to heavy rain in the catchment areas of the major rivers of Nepal which flows down to north Bihar.[18]
