Background Nepal has a history of recurring floods. It is the most destructive types of disasters. Nepal has a steep topography, it has rugged and high- angle slope with complex geology.
High intensity of rainfall during monsoon season causes flood and the flow of debris. Unplanned settlements and physical constructions without due considerations to the environment and natural hazard are noticeably aggravating mountain environment.
Three quarter of the total land area of Nepal is hilly and situated or adjacent to the unstable hill slopes. Saptarika In Terai is one of the most flood prone district in Nepal.
