Rain is welcome for the growth of crops and cooling down the atmosphere, especially after the hot summer.
But excessive rains spoil the harvest, and sometimes with the accumulated rain water, the tanks are overflowed and fields and roads remain under water, and even water enters the courtyard or drowns the ground floors of human habitations. As the stagnant water remains for a few days, the people face numerous difficulties.
The insects, the serpents and many poisonous creatures take shelter in the human abodes, causing threat to the lives of the dwellers. The cattle, unable to save their lives, die for want of food and shelter.
