    Solution

    Statement 1 follows. Setting up temporary relief camps directly addresses the urgent need of people displaced by floods. Statement 3 follows. Distribution of food, clean water, and medicines is essential for survival and disaster management in flood-affected areas. Statement 2 does not follow. Increasing traffic police on highways does not address flood-related deaths or displacement; it is unrelated to the stated problem.
