The area has seen a massive decline of forests without about 24 to 30 percent giving way tosenseless large-scale land use
e-Paper | Sunday Chronicle
Development has to take place However it certainly cannot happen at the cost of
fragile ecosystems which provide food and water security to us Our blind pursuit of
development has allowed massive encroachments of forest land which can lead only
to more oods and conversely more water scarcity Dr TV Ramachandra Head
Scientist IISc tells Aksheev Thakur
The oods in Kerala and Kodagu are the tragic indication of mismanagement of the riverine
ecosystem This includes our land and water resources The watershed or catchment area of
a water body retains the ow of water and mitigates oods and droughts these are either
areas covered by natural vegetation or monoculture plantations Our studies in the area
indicate higher levels of inltration between 40 and 50 percent in the catchments covered by
native vegetation while that dominated by monoculture plantations allows inltration to an
extent of between 15 and 24 percent Degraded catchment areas where extensive
deforestation or devegetation has taken place has very little inltration capacity This is also
evident with the existence of perennial streams in the catchment dominated by native
vegetation
The mismanagement of watershed and catchment areas as well as the lack of accountability amongst our decision makers arethe prime causes of the floods in these regions
e-Paper | Sunday Chronicle
However catchments in which native vegetation has been degraded has seasonal streams
that dry out in about four months while those with monoculture plantations do so in
between six and eight months
The area has seen a massive decline of forests without about 24 to 30 percent giving way to
senseless large-scale land use Deforestation and the infestation of monoculture plantations
are the prime cause of oods for they have resulted in a sharp decline in water retention
capability of the respective waterbody catchment
The coastal areas are more vulnerable compared to inland areas like Bengaluru
Kerala has faced ecological destruction since 1970s and Bengaluru city too is same
We have infrastructural projects at places where it is not required Our city planning
should include climate resilience which would incorporate on how the city contributes
to climate change and how one can make it more adaptive
Kshitij Urs
mdash country head Greenpeace India
Yes the region needs to develop However it certainly cannot happen at the cost of already
fragile ecosystems which also provide food and water security to peninsular India Our blind
pursuit of development has allowed massive encroachments of forest land which can lead
e-Paper | Sunday Chronicle
only to more oods and more water scarcity Forest deparment ocials of the respective
states should be held accountable for these encroachments
The mismanagement of watershed and catchment areas as well as the lack of accountability
amongst our decision makers are the prime causes of the oods in these regions
Irresponsible large-scale land cover changes in ecologically sensitive river basins combined
with unplanned development activities Linear road projects road widening railway lines
river diversion projects in the name of drinking water schemes have succeeded in fooling the
judiciary managed to bypass environment protocol and social impact assessments have
invited natures wrath
The implantation of unscientic consultant-driven projects with a nexus of corrupt
bureaucrats engineers and contractors all united by the sole aim of looting our natural
resources have impeded natures ow and left us with deadly consequences
Bengaluru if witnesses the rain what Kodagu is facing we will be in worse state since
canals are in a bad shape Due to vast projects top soil is eroded and SWDs are
encroached Unless people realise the importance of SWD and lakes as ood
mitigation area the situation will be precarious
Ram Prasad mdash Convener and co-founder of Friends of Lakes
Temporal Rainfall data analyses highlights a seven to eight year cycle of above average
rainfall followed by a seven year cycle of below average rainfall Times of high rainfall when
oods are likely can be mitigated by the integrated ecologically sensible management of the
precious catchments Narrowing and concretising natural drains will only enhance the
instances of oods as drains lose their natural hydrological functions including inltration
groundwater recharge and remediation The federal government must intervene identify
ecologically sensitive regions in the country and ensure that they are protecte from the
clutches of this maa The nation will develop better with a healthy ecosystem
URBAN FLOODING
We also concluded in our study that the frequent ooding in Bengaluru is the result of an
increase in impervious area combined with high-density urban development in catchments
e-Paper | Sunday Chronicle
and the loss of wetlands and vegetation The increment in the paved surface will be a
whopping 94 by 2020 along with the resultant reduction in wetlands vegetation and
pervious area Urban ooding creates huge economic losses and there have been instances
when even eight cm to 10 cm of rainfall in a short span have resulted in ooding The low
lying areas can be ooded in 30 minutes with 30 mm of rainfall all due to unplanned and
intense urbanisationAccording to CDP 2005 2015 buer zones should be declared as No
Development Zones the time has also come to decongest the city Encroachment of lakes
and Storm Water Drains (SWD) leads to the depletion in groundwater which further increases
the chance of ooding Moreover the encroachment of water bodies has led to a loss of
interconnectivity in the lakes
Koramangala Floods in 2017
During a eld visit made with the ocials of the Karnataka Lake Conservation and
Development Authority (KLCDA) we found that the storm water drain connecting Bellandur
lake with City Market had been narrowed down to 285 m from its orignal width of 60 m
This was in complete violation of NGT guidelines The concretisation and narrowing of drains
only worsened the impact of the ood in Koramangala last year This also aected the
hydrological functional ability of the storm Moreover with concretisation of drains the
velocity of water in the drain increases and there is a chance of us losing the city if things are
not brought to control One of the major points to highlight is that the continuous ooding of
low-lying areas has a catalyzing eect should solid waste and building debris accumulate in
the drains

and the loss of wetlands and vegetation The increment in the paved surface will be a
whopping 94 by 2020 along with the resultant reduction in wetlands vegetation and
pervious area Urban ooding creates huge economic losses and there have been instances
when even eight cm to 10 cm of rainfall in a short span have resulted in ooding The low
lying areas can be ooded in 30 minutes with 30 mm of rainfall all due to unplanned and
intense urbanisationAccording to CDP 2005 2015 buer zones should be declared as No
Development Zones the time has also come to decongest the city Encroachment of lakes
and Storm Water Drains (SWD) leads to the depletion in groundwater which further increases
the chance of ooding Moreover the encroachment of water bodies has led to a loss of
interconnectivity in the lakes
Koramangala Floods in 2017
During a eld visit made with the ocials of the Karnataka Lake Conservation and
Development Authority (KLCDA) we found that the storm water drain connecting Bellandur
lake with City Market had been narrowed down to 285 m from its orignal width of 60 m
This was in complete violation of NGT guidelines The concretisation and narrowing of drains
only worsened the impact of the ood in Koramangala last year This also aected the
hydrological functional ability of the storm Moreover with concretisation of drains the
velocity of water in the drain increases and there is a chance of us losing the city if things are
not brought to control One of the major points to highlight is that the continuous ooding of
low-lying areas has a catalyzing eect should solid waste and building debris accumulate in
the drains
