How can building on the drainage basin lead to flooding?
I assume you might be asking about the flood plain. The drainage basin is the very large area that feeds a river or stream. The flood plain is an area that is subject to flooding on a fairly normal basis. Building on the flood plain interrupts the natural pattern of flooding. The river will flood somewhere, the water has to go somewhere. if not on the natural flood plain perhaps in a city or town downstream.

Name the physical features of Pakistan and give the silient features of indus plain northen mountain pleatue?
The Indus River plain is a vast expanse of fertile land, covering about 200,000 square miles (518,000 square km), with a gentle slope from the Himalayan piedmont in the north to the Arabian Sea in the south. The average gradient of the slope is no more than 1 foot per mile (1 metre per 5 km). Except for the micro relief, the plain is featureless. It is divisible into two sections, the upper and lower Indus plains, on account of their differing physiographic features.
