This study was conducted to evaluate the main causes and damages of flood (2010)
in district Charsadda. Most of the villages in Charsadda District are prone to floods
during summer mainly because of torrential rainfall, melting of snow and ice,
deforestation and over grazing in the catchment areas of rivers flowing across
Charsadda. Overflowing the natural levees, the 2010 flood caused tremendous
damages to houses, agriculture, standing crops and other infrastructures. The
houses were damaged and resulted the displacement of 5500 families. All
governmental and private health facilities and water supply schemes were damaged
completely. Based on the study findings, it is recommended that flood relief
channels and embankments should be improved along with the active flood areas
to minimize the flood hazards.
