Guwahati, Assam – The flood situation in Assam is gradually improving as water levels begin to recede. Despite the improvement, about 3.5 lakh residents are still affected by the flooding. Relief operations are in full swing, with authorities working tirelessly to provide aid and rehabilitation to those impacted. Efforts include distributing food, setting up temporary shelters, and ensuring medical assistance.
The government has deployed multiple teams to the worst-hit areas to expedite relief measures. These teams are focused on providing clean drinking water, food supplies, and medical care to prevent any outbreaks of waterborne diseases. Additionally, several NGOs and local volunteers have joined the efforts, ensuring that aid reaches the most vulnerable populations.
The flood has caused significant damage to infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and homes. The Assam government has announced a comprehensive plan for rebuilding and rehabilitation. This plan includes repairing damaged infrastructure, providing financial assistance to affected families, and implementing measures to prevent future flooding.
Local communities have shown resilience in the face of adversity, with many coming together to support each other during this challenging time. The collective effort of the government, NGOs, and local residents is making a significant difference in alleviating the impact of the floods.
Flood in Assam is not new at all , infact it is a notorious annual flood, impacting millions of lives and cause economic loses
Some reasons are the geographical region, deforestation, dams and embankment
If we have early warning system, do afforestation and take serious by govt will surely control a little amount from disaster
Government should provide relief and proper water management system should be implemented as flood affects the people every year.
