23 percent of the Earth’s forest cover. They play a key role in mountain areas, providing goods and
services essential to the livelihood of both highland and lowland communities. Freshwater streaming
down from mountains is accessible to more than half of the world’s population and available for the most
varied needs, such as drinking, cooking and washing, farming, hydropower, industry and transportation.

Areas assessed: Moyna & Panskura Block of East Midnapore District of West Bengal.
Background:
Severe incessant rain led to a flood situation in several
parts of West Bengal affecting 6,71,952 people across 9
districts. This resulted in 2,00,000 homeless in East &
West Midnapore districts of West Bengal. In addition, the
cause of flooding in low lying areas in West and East
Midnapur was the release of water from reservoirs
(Damoda valley corporation barrage).
Rains have ceased in many parts of the state and there
are reports of waters receding in some of the worst hit
areas of the state. The situation is slowly returning to Photo showing widespread destruction due
normalcy. to flooding in East Chilka village
Affected areas – 200,000 people in five blocks of Moyna, Tamluk, Nandakumar and Panskura I
and II in East Midnapore are displaced due to the floods. In West Midnapore, Sabong and
Daspur are affected.
Government has initiated a rapid response to the floods. Relief materials distributed so far are –
tarpaulin; fuel; clothing, and boats being sent in from other districts for search and rescue. There
are no reports of any cash compensation being given to the affected families. Government
survey of damage is currently ongoing. There are no clear indications of the WASH situation in
the affected area, or of the risks that are likely to arise over the next few days.
The IAG states that the govt. has not requested for any external help to address any of the
needs in the affected area.

Field Visit Observations:
General:
During the assessment it is found that -
Flooding has been primarily caused by breaching
of the embankments; hence it is not widespread
and circumscribed within specific areas only.
Affected people have taken refuge on nearby
embankments and relief centres run by different
charities.
Government response has been observed in the
form of tarpaulin sheets and food items.
Different charities are also providing cooked food
to the affected people.
Photo showing repair of the breach in the
Flood waters are receding rapidly and people
embankment in progress in Dobandi village
have started returning and are in the process of
cleaning their homes.
It will be only a matter of few days before the remaining people will be able to go back to
their homes.
Repair of the breached embankments is in full swing and should be completed within the
next few days.
Affected families need basic relief only during the intervening period, and currently it is
being provided by the government and other charities.
For affected people who have lost the current crop (and harvest) may require some
support until the next cropping season. Perhaps the government will compensate the
loss and this should be monitored.
Some people have lost their houses. They will need support in repair/reconstruction and
this should be advocated with the government if there is no support being provided to
them.
Public Health-Water Sanitation:
During the assessment it is found that -
In the affected villages several hand pumps in the
affected areas are still submerged in flood water
except those situated on the embankment or on
higher ground.
For last 24 hours flood water level has started to
recede and many of the submerged hand pumps
are becoming accessible. However, the water
drawn from such sources appears to be turbid
and possibly contaminated (Direct observation & Photo showing damaged handpump at East
Community feedback). Chilka village
In all the areas visited Government temporary

5. health camps are operational with health sub-center staff distributing (as per need)
Halogen tablets, ORS and other basic essential medicines. Discussions with community
revealed that use of halogen at household level is low because of strong odour of
Chlorine.
Local administration with PRI has started hand pump disinfection using bleaching
powder but household level water storage and treatment remains inadequate and
inappropriate due to lack of proper Information, Education & Communication (IEC).
As per PHC workers, no cases of acute diarrhoea are reported. However, sporadic
cases are reported and almost 300 people have received medication. There are also
cases of skin infections reported and medication
has been distributed by the government.
In some affected pockets, local administration
supplied drinking water through tankers and
distributed drinking water in plastic pouches. In
Purba Chilka village, Ramkrishna Mission
distributed UNICEF hygiene kits.
Due to submergence of household pit-latrines
(where they existed), affected people are
resorting to open defecation on/near the
embankments. Photo showing people using highly turbid
Presently, the chances of any outbreak are low water at Dobandi village
but could change if there is any spell of rain.
Shelter:
The shelter structures in the visited area are
largely characterized by either mud houses with
thatched or mud tiles roofs and few concrete
houses. In areas visited, the percentages of
households with concrete houses and
households with mud houses are respectively
20% & 80%.
Many of the mud houses have collapsed, and in
submerged houses mud has deposited up to 3-4
feet.
People had to take shelter in the embankment or Photo showing structural damage to

Tarpaulin has been distributed by the
government to the affected families.
It was also observed that where waters
have receded, people have started
cleaning and repairing their houses on
their own.
Out of the entire affected families in the
villages visited, approx 20% were
displaced and living on the embankments,
schools or in other relief camps. With
waters receding, people have started
returning to their homes, thereby bringing

Food security and livelihood
As per the affected people, damage to the betel
leaf plantations and jute fields have caused
(though short & medium term) significant
livelihood problems.
Few cases of loss of paddy seed beds are
reported by community.
In some areas, agricultural land is still water
logged and expected to remain so, and as per the
local people, it will not be possible to cultivate
these fields at least for another year.
However, no immediate food insecurity is Photo showing damage to betel plantation
observed as families are coping through existing at Dobandi village
food grain stock or available cash.
A threat of insufficient access to food remains in case of families dependent on daily
wage labour due to the sudden drop in availability of work. A large section of the affected
households in Moyna 1 GP belong to this category. However, as per primary observation
and information, it may be a temporary phenomenon.
Local markets are functioning well and essential commodities are available. No rise in
prices of essential items is reported, except for few localized agricultural products.
Child Protection
Through the assessment it was found that -
Separated children: There are no reported cases of children who are by themselves
(with no adult care).
Physical safety:
It is found that children are with their respective families and are spending their
time with their families whereby risks to physical safety is minimised
There are no places for children to play now. Some children are spending their
time on the embankment where they and their families have taken temporary
shelter. Many children and families are still in their houses though houses are not
completely dried out of flood water and cleaned.
Psychological concerns
Interaction with several children showed no perceptible signs of psycho-social
stress. However, psychological stress may manifest in adolescent girls as there
is no privacy for them while accessing toilet facilities (primarily open defecation
now), bathing facilities (ponds).
Child Rights
In relation to health/education/shelter/food no grave risks to fulfillment of rights
were found. However, access to schools is temporarily disrupted, which is likely
to resume soon. In the mid-term there maybe threat to food security in case of
children in the daily wage labourer families due to resultant livelihood/household
economic crisis.

7. There are no existing social forums or spaces for children’s participation within
the affected population
Vulnerable groups: The already existing patterns of and vulnerability are caste, age
and gender based.
Other Backward Class (Muslim) and Scheduled Caste (SC) communities are
found to be affected the most and also more vulnerable. The reasons are, first,
majority of the affected communities are either OBC or SC; second, because
majority of families in these two communities are economically vulnerable who do
not have land and depend on daily wage labour or migratory semi-skilled labour
work.
A sizeable section of the upper age group children in these two affected
communities are found to drop out of school and start working. Girls get engaged
in household work and boys start working to earn a livelihood.
Existing and potential resources:
- There are no agencies providing any protection services
- It is found that the likelihood of any teachers, spiritual leaders and others who can
recognize and assist children with developmental and behavioural problems is very
low
Education
Access to education services:
Education is not accessible to all children though flood water has receded from
schools
Few primary schools are still submerged in flood-water
Schools will reopen, according to community members and PRI members, within
7-15 days.
Impact on education provision
6 schools are reported by the community to be partially damaged Purba
Deoband and Purba Deoband Patna Villages
Teachers are not directly affected by the emergency but in case of some schools
they are able to access the schools
Role of Government
In the assessed areas, as of now local
administration has distributed one tarpaulin sheet
to each affected family.
Local administration has also distributed 1-1 ½ of
kg of flattened rice, 250 grams jaggery, 1-2
kilograms of rice per family in the affected
community.

8. Role of NGOs and INGOs
Charities like All India Minority Association (AIMA)
are running community kitchens in some pockets
for last 3 days. They have also provided electricity
generators and lighting facilities in East and West
Chilka relief camps on the embankment.
Through the charity Ramkrishna Mission, UNICEF
distributed Hygiene Kits to the community in East
Chilka.
Sporadic relief distribution by local clubs and
individuals are also reported. Photo showing AIMA-run community
kitchen near East Chilka village
Overall Recommendations-
Sector Short term (next 15 days) Mid-term
WASH Ensuring safe drinking water possibly Decide on need for any intervention
through both source and household level if the situation worsens due to heavy
treatment to remove turbidity and any rainfall in future or pending repairs of
faecal contamination; provision of the breaches in the embankments
temporary toilets (very difficult given the which are the cause of the current
space constraints on the embankments) flooding.
Shelter No immediate shelter aid is necessary Monitor the implementation by PRI
and local administration of any
compensation package declared by
government. If not, advocate for a
compensation package for the
affected families
Food There is no immediate unmet need of Detailed Livelihood sectoral
Security external food aid assessment may reveal the long
and term impact of the crop loss and the
Livelihood intervention need either directly or
through advocacy.
Child Advocate with the district and local If heavy rainfall changes the
Protection administration to install temporary, secure situation to worse, then a detailed
toilet blocks, especially targeting assessment would be necessary to
adolescent girls and women prevent existing child protection risks
