Flood in Pakistan usually refers to the seasonal flooding that happens during the monsoon (June–September). Heavy rains, overflowing rivers (like the Indus, Chenab, Ravi, and Sutlej), and poor drainage systems cause large-scale destruction.

Some key points about floods in Pakistan:

🌧️ Causes

Intense monsoon rains

Melting glaciers in the north

Overflow of rivers and dams

Poor urban planning and blocked drainage in cities

⚠️ Effects

Loss of lives and homes

Damage to crops and livestock (agriculture is badly hit)

Roads, bridges, and electricity systems collapse

Spread of water-borne diseases (cholera, dengue, diarrhea)

Massive displacement of people

📌 Major Flood Events

2010 Floods → Worst in Pakistan’s history, affected ~20 million people.

2022 Floods → One-third of the country submerged, over 33 million affected, thousands killed, and huge economic loss.

💡 Government & Aid Response

NDMA (National Disaster Management Authority) handles relief work.

Pakistan Army, NGOs, and international organizations (UN, Red Crescent, UNICEF, etc.) provide food, shelter, and medical help.
