Many parts of the state of Haryana including Jind are prone to flooding. The devastating floods hit Haryana many times. We are not at the forefront of the flood control technology but we tried to give the best at our own level. Flood Control Order, Jind has adopted a novel, concise and action-oriented approach towards structuring of the document. The structure adopted has tried to minimize the impact of all losses due to multi hazards and has focus sharply on vulnerable areas for planning and implementation with Dr. Aditya Dahiya, IAS clearly defined roles and responsibilities regarding heavy rain/flood. Deputy Commissioner, Jind Floods are caused by many factors: heavy precipitation, severe winds over water, unusual high tides or failure of dams, levels, retention ponds or other structure that contained the water. Effects of floods: flooding has many impacts. It damages property and endangers the lives of human and other species. Rapid water run off causes soil erosion and concomitant sediment deposition elsewhere, flood can interfere with drainage and economic use of land, relates with farming. Structural damage can occur in bridge, building, houses, bank lines, sewer lines and other structures within flood ways, all turns into financial losses. Flood control order refers to all methods used to reduce or prevent the detrimental effects of flood water. Some of the common techniques used for flood control are installation of rock berms, rock rip-raps, sand bags, maintaining normal slopes with vegetation or application of soil cements on steeper slopes and construction of expansion of drainage channels. Other method are include levees, dikes, dams, retention or detention basins, functioning of pumps houses as well as all movable pumps with sufficient capacity to drain out the flood water to a proper place. My sincere thanks to all the officers/officials of district Emergency Operation Centre, as well as all the other district level officials of various frontline departments of government & Non-government organization who have put their utmost efforts in bringing out this Flood Control Order, 2020 are also deserve praise for their contribution. We hope that the Flood Control Order, 2020 will serve the purpose of not only flood control but also control the side effect of heavy rain, cloud burst, dust storm etc. On the whole this is a genuine effort of district administration to develop the challenging mentality to withstand all kind of adverse situations as well as all jeopardize effects.

The District has a well spread network of roads. N.H.65 and N.H. 71 and four state Highways nos. 10,11A, 12& 14 pass through the district. Due to unplanned urbanization and construction of roads, railways, canals drains, minors etc, the natural flow of rain water gets obstructed and cause flood like situation in some places during rainy season. However, no river flows through Jind but this district is a part of great Indo-Genetic Plain having alluvial soil and it is remarkably flat in topography. District falls in sub-tropical monsoon climate characterized by hot summers wet monsoon and cold-dry winters. Most of the rainfall (app. 80%) occurs from the middle of June to September.

Rest 16% rainfall is received during non- monsoon period in the wake of western disturbances and thunder storms. Generally rainfall in the district increases from southwest to northeast Flood in this area caused by heavy downpour during rainy season and obstruction and incision of drains, canals, roads and natural paths. The winter season extends from mid October to early April. During winters some cyclonic rainfall occurs mainly from January to March. 7 | P a g e 2.
