&lt;em&gt;Overburdened drainage, frenzied and unregulated construction, no regard to the natural topography and hydro-geomorphology all make urban floods a man-made disaster&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;The recent floods in Bihar and Eastern Uttar Pradesh have taken by surprise both governments and people.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Patna, severe water logging has brought the city to a halt, with hospitals and residential areas filled with waist-deep water. Transport services have been disrupted, with many trains cancelled.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is no electricity in most areas. The state capital also lacks food and drinking water.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the untimely heavy rains can be attributed to a delayed retreat of the monsoon, as a part of climate variability; the massive urban flooding is largely an unplanned urbanisation problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The term urban flood is a misnomer. The problem of flooding in urban areas is not only due to overflowing rivers, but the uninformed way in which our cities are coping with urbanisation also plays a large role.&lt;br /&gt;
