Floods have caused much destruction and have become the reason behind diseases as well. The stagnant water causes Malaria which should be catered by spraying anti mosquitoes and channelizing a way out for the stagnant water. In addition, drinking contaminated water can lead to vomiting, loose stomach which further drops salinity and water level in the body.
