Abstract

Average rainfall in Pakistan is very low and irregular in sindh plain. Mostly high order rainfall occurs from July to September in a monsoon period. Due to heavy rain in September 2011, floods are come in left bank of drain and it has many impacts on the various towns and rural areas of sindh were observed, at least 360 people were killed, some 5.330 Million people were affected and 1.21 Million homes affected as well 1.74 Million Acres of arable land inundated. The storm originated in bay of Bengal move northwest worldly across the gigantic plains and with passage of time reaches Indus plains. The (2011) heavy downpour caused a high damaged became of improper disposals of run-off insufficient and chocked drainage system caused stagnancies of surface as well as ground water and impacted badly on infrastructure of buildings, roads, agriculture human and animal life. Floods if not mitigated in time are most serious environmental threat to the country. It needs a careful and wise policy planning and formulation of strategies to combat floods and control destruction which they cause. It was therefore deemed fit to take up this project and investigate the actual pros and cons of the heavy downpour destruction and formulate some intensive strategies to mitigate such calamity in future without much damage of epitome of this research project. Data was collected from social survey in premises of town, different departments including Non Governmental Organizations and Governmental Departments and also solutions on immediate basis are discussed [1].
