Assam Flood Crisis Turns Critical; Over 7 Lakh Affected, Rivers Overflow, Major Damage Reported!

Assam continues to face a severe flood crisis, affecting nearly seven lakh people across 21 districts. The death toll from the first wave of floods and landslides has risen to 19, with one person missing in Cachar district. Nine major rivers, including the Brahmaputra and Barak, are flowing above danger levels, causing widespread inundation. A total of 1,494 villages across 66 revenue circles have been affected, with Sribhumi district hardest hit, impacting over 2.5 lakh people. Floodwaters have submerged nearly 15,000 hectares of crop area and affected more than five lakh animals. Authorities have set up 405 relief camps sheltering over 41,000 people, along with more than one lakh relief distribution centers. Significant damage has been reported to infrastructure such as roads, bridges, schools, and electricity poles. Flooding has disrupted train services in southern Assam, leading to cancellations of some short-distance trains, although long-distance trains remain operational. The situation remains critical as water levels continue to rise.
