Fellows Seminar Series | Understanding and Tackling Urban Floods in India

This edition of the ORF Fellows Seminar Series will discuss Dr. Ramanath Jha's research paper on Understanding and Tackling Urban Floods in India. Given their frequent recurrence in Indian cities, the problem of urban flooding is gaining focus in policy discussions. Indeed, urban floods can cause massive loss of infrastructure, property, and lives, and have a substantial economic impact. To ensure they remain functional and secure, Indian cities must tackle the issue of floods by examining the urban over- densification problem and adopting innovative mitigation measures with the technical and financial support of the central and state governments.
