Abstract
Urban flooding is one the most destructive natural and man-made disasters which is causing a significant amount of fatality and financial loss. Over the globe, cities are confronting complex and questionable challenges, including urbanization, heavy rainfall, landslides, climate change, heatwaves, dangers to water supply, and increased flood risk. Among all these causes, the most proven reason is rapid urbanization and the thesis will address all the issues related to urban flooding. Nevertheless, urban flooding is treated as the cause of heavy rainfall without considering the watershed as an interrelated system connected with the development of its domain. The conventional flood control approach needs constant monitoring, persistent corrective measures, and intervention after learning from past events.
To achieve a level where even the city will get flood still it will able to run off the excess water itself
