Gandak flood September 2010

Surprisingly media is not giving much importance to it.
Where is media?

BRF has deeps concerns that it may happen again.

A good news is that International Development Association (IDA), the World Bank's concessionary lending arm, has approved a $220 million credit to support rebuilding efforts in areas affected by the 2008 Kosi floods in Bihar.
