The statement of the Indian Disaster Management Authority adds: This department has set up 543 relief camps and aid distribution centers in 25 flood-affected areas, and more than 345,000 flood-affected people have been accommodated in these relief camps.

It is not unusual for South Asia to receive about 90 percent of the annual rainfall during the monsoon season, which causes floods and landslides, but experts believe that this has led to worsening climate change in recent years.

Nepal officials have estimated that this year’s monsoon has killed more than 40 people, and they have urged residents of the country’s southeast to be on high alert as the Kushi River, which runs through Nepal and India, is above danger levels.
