As per Ministry of Health, 128 deaths have been reported, 33 people are missing and 25 have already been injured (As of 16 August 2017). Initial report as per the Ministry of Agricultural Development suggests that crops worth tens of millions of dollars have been destroyed and nearly 70,000 livestock have perished. Additionally, over 500 industries, both large and small, have been shut down. Almost 3,00,000 people or 60,000 households need immediate food assistance and based on our experiences of previous disasters, it can be estimated that the larger number of population especially children aged below 5 and pregnant or lactating women are at increased risk of acute malnutrition and epidemic outburst of flood related diseases (like cholera, dysentery, typhoid). Though Flood waters are receding, with improvement in access and a better understanding of the impact and damage caused by the floods, the overall number of affected people continues to rise.

Immediate relief materials like food (rice , pulses, salt and vegetable oil) , shelter (temporary: Tarpaulin/mats) and other basic requirements like kitchen utensils, bucket for water storage, jug are to be supplied to each household to sustain their life until long term plan has been to action by Government or any concerned authorities.
