प्रश्न
Answer the following question in brief:
What safety measures can be followed against floods?
उत्तर
Floods can be prevented in vulnerable areas by properly maintaining dykes and embankments along rivers. The government and relief organisation must also have provisions of flood shelters in vulnerable places (along flood-prone regions) so that people and livestock can be quickly evacuated and provided relief too. The government must also plan to station rescue equipment near flood-prone areas. It should be possible to immediately deploy rescue boats and have communication lines open and functioning in order to rescue people caught in rising levels of water. There should be enough dry food, clean water, and medicines made available to these people, affected by floods, so that spread of diseases can be stopped.
