How to save our cities from an annual deluge

Our short-sightedness has been our folly. For a long-term impact at the city level, we must take several specific steps to protect urban India from floods. Pay attention to the science of materials, of climate, and of life

Our approach to disasters has been focused on relief and rehabilitation with very little investment in the intelligent planning of towns. The credibility of a government depends on how quickly and efficiently it rescues people and provides them relief. It does not depend on pre-empting disasters. (Amal KS/HT Photo)
