GUWAHATI: In the wake of incessant rains following cyclone Remal, floods have wreaked havoc in eight districts of Assam, leaving one person dead and over 40,000 people affected.

Reportedly the rising water levels of several rivers, including the Barak River and its tributaries, have inundated vast areas across Nagaon, Hailakandi, Karbi Anglong, Karimganj, Cachar, Hojai, Golaghat, and West Karbi Anglong districts.

So far, one person has drowned in Karimganj district, bringing the death toll to five since Tuesday, while two others remain missing in neighbouring Cachar district.

In addition to floods, landslides have been reported from several villages in Dima Hasao, Cachar, and Hailakandi districts, disrupting road connectivity and causing heavy erosion in certain areas like Silchar and Udharbond.

The worst-hit district, Karimganj, has seen 26,430 people affected, followed by 8,351 in Cachar and 6,227 in Hailakandi.

Residents of vulnerable areas have been evacuated to safety, with relief camps set up to provide shelter and support.

In the hilly terrain of Dima Hasao, life has come to a standstill due to severe rains, with roads blocked by landslides and sections washed away, isolating villages like Laisong.

Train services along the Haflong-Badarpur line have been halted due to landslides.

Nagaon is grappling with rising water levels of the Barpani river, causing flooding in Kampur and damaging infrastructure like roads and bridges.

Golaghat is also facing the wrath of floods, with the Dhansiri river flowing above danger levels and several low-lying areas submerged.

Ferry services remain suspended across the state due to adverse weather conditions.

Chief Secretary Ravi Kota has instructed district commissioners to prioritise the safety and well-being of affected residents.

The Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA) is actively monitoring the situation and coordinating relief efforts with all departments and agencies.

As Assam battles the aftermath of cyclone Remal, efforts are underway to provide assistance and support to those affected by the devastating floods.
