Nepalese people are fully dependent on nature and natural resources for their livelihood, such as food, fodder, fuel, and also the per capita land resources is much more as compared to developed countries. But the per capita income of the country is very low. So, due to various reasons, Nepal is not in easy position to import heavy amount of alternative energy as developed, which could substitute the present demand of total energy. This eventually put natural resources and forest on heavy risk and induced various disasters. At present the rate of consumption of energy is 1379121 MWH. Therefore, direct visible perception of water-induced disaster in Nepal are due to heavy destruction of forest, construction of roads, lack of technical confidence, lack of embankment, unmanaged irrigation system, chemical and physical weathering of rocks, unwanted mining, forest fire and young geological constituents of topography like, high porosity of soil, and steep land profit etc. which all are being guided by direct or indirect political s o c i o-economical and traditional (conventional) practices.
