Assam Flood Crisis Deepens, Over 1 Lakh People Affected

Karimganj, Assam: The flood situation in Assam has worsened, with over 1.05 lakh people affected across 14 districts following relentless torrential rainfall in recent days.

According to the latest flood report by the Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA), nearly 96,000 people have been impacted in Karimganj district alone. The heavy downpours have caused rivers to overflow, inundating vast areas and disrupting daily life.

Emergency response teams are on high alert, working tirelessly to provide relief and ensure the safety of the affected populations. Rescue operations are underway, with boats and other resources being deployed to evacuate people from submerged regions.

The state government has set up relief camps to accommodate displaced individuals, offering food, water, and medical assistance. Despite these efforts, the scale of the disaster presents significant challenges, with infrastructure damage and communication breakdowns hindering relief efforts.

The people of Assam are bracing for more rain, with weather forecasts predicting continued downpours in the coming days. The ASDMA continues to monitor the situation closely and is urging residents in vulnerable areas to remain vigilant and heed official advisories.
