I have seen many areas where the water level cuts the topography and huge amount
of seepage occurs

In certain areas there are temporary flowing wells
Such wells are seen even in hyderabad

I am trying to search for a video recording that i have made two years ago and
i will try to upload that as an attachment for all of us to see.

Another example, from Jamaica. Rainfall in June 2003 was in excess of 1000
mm in 3-4 days. Ground water level responded with a rise of more than 40 m,
with ground water flooding in some places roads, houses, etc. However, the
subsurface there is composed of fractured limestone (The White Limestone
Formation), with an average effective porosity not more than 3%. It is easy
to calculate that the rainfall of 1 m with such a porosity could locally
produce the rise of levels between 30 and 40 m. The recession was much
slower due to low transmissivity of the limestone. Land (ground surface) is
of course composed of very permeable limestone formations with not too much
surface runoff.
