Merger request

There are not enough distinct sources on the August 2024 floods to justify it being a separate page, it would better be a section here. Also Tripura has been affected by the same floods so calling it only Bangladesh floods is not accurate. 44 lakh in Bangladesh and 17 lakh in India have been affected.

Oppose as August flood is significant event to write as a separate article. The flood created diplomatic tension between India and Bangladesh. It is more deadly than the previous 2024 India–Bangladesh floods. Also we should consider other factors including abnormally increased water level of the rivers around the capital of Bangladesh, incidents of robbery during floods. These things didn't happen before (not for at least 20 years). Also see this No one has seen such a 'united Bangladesh' around disaster before. This flood is more deadly and many newspapers stated that.

Oppose The flood is also significant for the new government which is formed in the country. [1] The severity and geolocation of the floods, alleged Indian involvement leading to conspiracy theories make this flood unique in many senses. So I would be opposing the merger.

Support-Same topic.Vinegarymass911 (talk) 12:19, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Hence the flood has affected both India and Bangladesh I support the merger.

Arijit Kisku (talk) 16:24, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose India is responsible for the flood and Bangladesh is the main sufferer. August 2024 Bangladesh floods should have a seperate article based on the scale. New separate article about 2024 Bangladesh floods also created. Bangladesh is a separate country.Nafis Fuad Ayon (talk) 19:22, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the initial proposal was a merge to the joint title 2024 India-Bangladesh floods, ensuring that both country names appear in the title. Klbrain (talk) 11:53, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support: India and Bangladesh not only border each other, but instances of flooding in both countries are often simultaneous. Quake1234 (talk) 14:38, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
