"Good people, this shows that people built the houses in a flood plain. We have different magnitude of flood, e. g. 1:10 years, 1:50 years, 1:100years. It looks like a proper study was not done prior to approving the area as a residential area. Additionally, the drainage is not helping because of the design doesn't suit this magnitude of floods."
