1.Changes to stream channels during urban development can limit their capacity to convey floodwaters. Roads and buildings constructed in flood-prone areas are exposed to increased flood hazards, including inundation and erosion, as new development continues

2.It is not only the event of flooding but the secondary effect of exposure to infection also has its toll in terms of human suffering, loss of livelihood and, in extreme cases, loss of life. Urban areas are also centres of economic activities with vital infrastructure which needs to be protected 24x7.

3.Heavy rain over a flat or low lying area

4.A river breaching its embankments due to high water flow or heavy rain in the river's catchment area

5 .Any drainage obstructions like landslides, land subsidence etc. after heavy rains.
