Changes in climate, waterlogging hazards and regional floods are more prominent in present context. The paper reviews potential of flood hazard in dense urban areas, using GIS-based 1-D hydrodynamic model (MIKE URBAN). The major factor contributing to the urban waterlogging in recent decades is the climatic variability and thus the long-term variations of precipitation and drainage system of an urban area were evaluated. MIKE URBAN (1-D) hydrodynamic model can be used to comprehensively simulate inundation processes. The model simulates the processes of rainfall and runoff, urban drainage, and flooding. MIKE URBAN can be used to appraise the potential immersion dangers of any planned drainage system. This paper reviews the increasingly urban flooding events expected in the future for the different cities across the globe. Thus, the surface runoff processes of cities need to examine the regional drainage system.

The Indian Association for the prevention and control of rabies estimates that 80, 00, 000 individuals receive the treatment for dog bites each year [1]. The matter with dog rabies in India is that dogs are asymptomatic in each human establishment. The dog population is calculable to be about 25 million; most of them are ownerless and non-vaccinated

Open garbage dumps and dog bite are public health impasse in the Kashmir region. In Srinagar city, there are more than 91,000 dogs. It’s making one dog for every 12 citizens. Conversely, there are more than 80,000 dog bites, are reported in the valley. The present study was conceded in Srinagar district. It is solidly colonized with stray dog population perhaps due to mismanagement of garbage. The mounting street dog population is leading increasing fright in the city. The information recorded for Dog bite cases was collected from SMHS. The mainstream victims were males. The majority were bitten in the age group of 30–40. The majority had reported at the same day to the hospital. The time of exposure was evening. The bulk had bites on legs. Category 3 bites were seen with the majority people. The majority receive immunoglobins. Open garbage dumps are a public health impediment and they instigate to stray dogs propagation in Srinagar. Individual’s information should be enhanced and their sanguine attitude might be translated into pertinent practices for preclusion of rabies.
