The flooding poses significant risks to urban populations, infrastructure, and ecosystems. Residents face property damage, waterlogging, and health hazards from contaminated water. Encroachment on floodplains and wetlands exacerbates the problem, reducing natural flood absorption capacity. Vulnerable groups, such as those in informal settlements, are disproportionately affected. The lack of updated master plans and coordination among urban bodies further increases the severity of these events, making cities less resilient to climate-induced changes (GKToday, 2026).
