Flood forecasting is an important activity during monsoon, considering the huge and increasing flood prone area, flood frequency, intensity and flood damages. Accurate and timely flood forecasting can hugely help reduce the damages due to floods. Central Water Commission (CWC) is the only agency responsible for flood forecasting in India. To understand the CWC’s flood forecasting better, we have compiled the list of the various flood, inflow forecasting sites and flood monitoring sites in India.
In this compilation, we have given state wise list of CWC’s flood forecasting, flood monitoring and inflow forecasting sites in North India, comprising of states of Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi and Chandigarh. It includes available details like name of river, sub basin, Warning level (WL), Danger Level (DL), High Flood Level (HFL), Full Reservoir Level (FRL), Maximum Water Level (MWL), as applicable. As we see below, there are many gaps in this basic information for the sites that are part of CWC’s list. A similar zonewise overview of CWC’s sites was compiled in 2018, which can be seen here. Overview of CWC Flood Forecasting Sites 2018: North India. We have brought this updated compilation for 2019 as there are large number of changes as ou can see.
JAMMU AND KASHMIR As per CWC’s flood forecasting website the state in 2018 had 3 Level forecasting and 1 level monitoring site. In 2019, number of level forecasting site has remains at three, but number of level monitoring sites have gone up to 34. Given the incomplete data on CWC’s flood forecasting website, one can only conclude that there is no level monitoring site currently active in the state. Moreover the hydrographs for all the 37 sites are inactive. There is also change in WL, DL, HFL levels and dates for Sangam, Rammanushi bagh and Safapora Level Forecasting sites. Again no explanation is given for such changes.
In list based exploration section name of 13 districts are repeated and mentioned separately with capital and small letters. Some of the repeated districts carry no information of sites while some of repeated districts either have site under one name or separate sites under both names. For example the district of Doda mentioned as DODA has information on 5 sites and same district with small letters ‘Doda’ has list of 4 separate sites. The reason for this anomalies is not known.
For details of last year’s sites, kindly see Overview of CWC Flood Forecasting Sites 2018: North India

HIMACHAL PRADESH CWC has added 3 new level monitoring sites (mentioned in sky blue color) and removed 2 sites from the state. Now the state has 1 Level Forecasting and 17 Level Monitoring sites. HFL information for 11 sites is still missing while 4 sites have inactive hydrograph. Similarly inflow information for some sites is not upto date and many sites lack information under Cumulative Daily Rainfall section.
Hanuman Chetty site of Uttrakhand was wrongly included in Himachal Pradesh state in 2018. Though it has been removed but has not been included in Uttarakhand state for unknown reasons. Name of 12 districts are repeated in List Based Exploration section with capital letters.

In 2019, the number has gone up to 74 including 4 Level Forecasting, 68 Level Monitoring and 2 Inflow Forecasting sites. So in Uttarakhand, CWC has added 46 more sites in 2019. Kalagarh has been moved from Level Monitoring to Inflow Forecasting site. Pancheshwar site is mentioned twice. Similarly Banbasa barrage is Inflow Forecasting site while Banbasa is mentioned under Level Monitoring sites list.

Summary Overall there are 319 CWC sites in 7 states of North India comprising of 48 Level Forecasting, 263 Level Monitoring and 8 Inflow Forecasting sites. (In 2018 these states had a total 144 sites including 48 Level Forecasting, 91 Level Monitoring and 6 Inflow Forecasting sites.) Out of 319 sites 59 sites are inactive including 4 Level Forecasting, 54 Level Monitoring and 1 Inflow Forecasting. With 179, Uttar Pradesh state has highest number of sites followed by Uttarakhand (74) and Himachal Pradesh (18). The only on Level Monitoring site added this year in Punjab state is inactive. Out of total number of inactive Level Monitoring sites 34 are in Jammu & Kashmir, 4 in Himachal Pradesh, 10 in Uttarakhand and 4 in Uttar Pradesh.
In most of the Level and Inflow Forecast sites, the full information including level, inflow, outflow through canal, outflow through river is not given. Districts names are repeated in every state. Also most of the new added sites lack complete information.

MAJOR GAPS There are major gaps that we can see.
- For example, CWC has no sites in Punjab (only one added this year is inactive) and Chandigarh.
- Even in Sujlej, Ravi and Beas basins, CWC has no flood forecasting sites.
- In Sutlej and Beas basins, it has some flood monitoring sites, but in Ravi Basin, CWC does not have a single monitoring site.
- In whole of Uttarakhand, CWC has no flood forecasting sites in Bhagirathi, Ramganga, Sharda or Yamuna basin.
- In whole of Ghaggar Basin, spanning from Himachal Pradesh through Chandigarh, Punjab, Haryana, CWC has no sites at all.
There are many other issues with respect to the actual flood forecasting and monitoring by CWC, which are not dealt here.

End Notes:
- New sites are mentioned with sky BLUE color. The sites shown with RED colour means they were incomplete in 2018 and remains so even this year.
- Abbreviations List:
Warning Level- WL
Danger Level- DL
Full Reservoir Level- FRL
Maximum Water Level –MWL
High Flood Level- HFL
Meters- M
[I] On 18 Sept. 2019, this site was showing update of 1 Sept. 2019.
[II] This site is in Uttarkashi on Hamuman Ganga.
[III] Previous HFL was 808.0 dated 16-6-2013.
[IV] In 2018 HFL date was mentioned as 17-06-2013. Now its changed to 19-09-2010.
[V] Hydrograph is not up to date.
[VI] Hydrograph is not up to date.
[VII] Hydrograph is not up to date.
[VIII] Hydrograph is not up to date
[IX] 338.9 M is mentioned as HFL on 17-06-2013 in data flow map
[X] This information is not given on the CWC FF website, we have taken it from Palla flood monitoring station of Delhi Govt.
[XI] HFL date was not mentioned last year.
[XII] The SOP document gives warning level for Kanpur at 113, but the FF site gives it as 112 m.
[XIII] There are 3 more sites Phaphamau, Allahabad (Chhatang), ALLAHABAD with same WL, DL, HFL in Allahabad
[XIV] There are 2 sites with same Name,WL, DL, HFL details. One seems defunct since 2014.
[XV] Seems this site has been moved to Inflow Forecasting Sites.
[XVI] Chunar site is mentioned twice and hydrogarph for chunar one is active and inactive for Chunar.
[XVII] Hydrograph is not showing Inflow Outflow.
[XVIII] Inflow is shown and not the outflow.
SANDRP 
The CWC does not predict floods due to release of water from dams as those are controlled by dam authorities. We must make our dam authorities totally accountable to perform the mandatory duty to inform public and state well in advance about release of water from dams of rivers or other water bodies. Other-wise man made floods will and already is continuing with impunity .
