🇮🇳 Severe Flooding on the Ganges River in India — A Worrying Sign

🌊💧 On July 12, 2025, the Ganges River — also known as the Kank — suddenly overflowed its banks in India, unleashing a powerful and fast-moving surge. Footage from the scene shows water rushing through streets and inundating riverside areas.

⚠️ Such events pose a direct threat to life and safety: turbulent floodwaters can sweep people away, destroy buildings and bridges, contaminate water supplies, and disrupt transportation networks.

🌍 Floods along the Ganges, especially during the monsoon season, are becoming increasingly destructive — each year highlighting the urgent need to modernize population protection systems and improve readiness for extreme climate events.
