  • Hydrological disaster is a natural disaster occurs most commonly due to flood.

Flood can contaminates the water sources such as wells, rivers, lakes and streams and decreases the water quality. The contaminated water supports the growth of parasites which leads to spreading of communicable diseases like Water-borne diseases like Typhoid, Cholera, Hepatitis A and Leptospirosis.
