which in turn had resulted in huge loss of life,
infrastructure and financial crisis. It has played a
prominent role in Kerala civilization, culture and
economy. This study is a comparative study of the
floods that had happened in the years 1924 and 2018
in Kerala. These two disasters which happened in two

the traumatic experience they have encountered stays
within them forever.

into consideration the areas affected in the flood in
both the years so as to get to know the disaster-prone
