Floods in Bihar,we need your help!!

On the 18th August, the Kosi River in Bihar overflowed and Bihar was hit by severe floods. The main reason was the embankment at Kosaha in Nepal that broke down due to heavy downpour.

A large number of people(in lakhs) remain stranded on islands that have formed in the middle of largely submerged villages. The state of a minimum of 25 lakhs of homeless people is bad and it doesn't seem like enough aid is pouring in.

Moreover, because of problems in terms of accessiblity to the place, a number of people are still stuck in remote areas with no food, water or help. The mainstream media seems to treat this as just another instance of floods hitting some part of the country, completely downplaying the ground reality and the extent of the true ramifications of the flood.

• Minimum of 25 lakhs dislocated.


• 266 villages affected.


• Lakhs, yet to be rescued! (those rescued still wandering in search of their loved ones


• Unstable weather conditions.
