Finding shows that flash floods severely damaged 7 houses belongs to 16 families that are in needs of NFIs, hygiene kits and foods; Major drinking water sources (floods and rivers) are contaminated which resulted into widely spread of watery diarrheal diseases. Eighty per cent agriculture (farms, trees) are perished away and majority of roads are covered by the gravels and stone brought by the floods that hampered access in the areas, and reportedly children are not able to go to their schools.
