IMPHAL: The flood-ravaged state of Manipur witnessed a significant improvement on Sunday, marking a respite after enduring over five days of relentless downpour triggered by cyclonic storm Remal.

Efforts to mitigate the crisis bore fruit as the water level receded in major rivers such as Imphal, Nambul, and Kongba, relieving villages, human habitations, and localities from the grip of inundation.

In a social media post on Saturday, Chief Minister Singh lauded the relentless endeavours of the minor irrigation department, commending their tireless day-and-night operations alongside local authorities.

Although significant progress has been made, officials cautioned that it might take another one or two days to clear the debris and mud left in the aftermath of the floods.

Earlier, officials reported that around two lakh individuals across 348 villages and urban localities in eight districts had been impacted by the deluge.

Amidst the crisis, 20,000 affected individuals sought refuge in 56 relief camps, with many now returning to their homes as the situation improves.

Meanwhile, the Assam Rifles initiated Operation “Jalrahat” in flood-affected areas, extending support to stranded citizens.

Since May 28, 16 columns of Assam Rifles have remained deployed round the clock, executing evacuation operations and providing relief to those in distress.

The operation, characterised by specialized equipment and advanced rescue techniques, facilitated the evacuation of over 6,500 individuals, including women and children, from perilous situations in areas like Dewlahland, Thangal Bazar, North AOC, and Mantripukhri.

Over 5,000 food packets and drinking water were distributed to flood-affected individuals by the paramilitary force, alleviating immediate concerns amidst the crisis.

The inundation also infiltrated key installations, including medical colleges, government offices, and residential complexes, including Chief Minister’s private residence and various hotels.

Even the Raj Bhavan complex, housing the Governor’s Office and Secretariat, witnessed floodwaters engulfing staff quarters and security barracks.

Water Resource Minister Awangbow Newmai highlighted the widespread impact of the cyclone aftermath, affecting regions spanning hills and valley districts of Imphal East, Imphal West, Kangpokpi, Bishnupur, Noney, Churachandpur, Senapati, and Kakching.

Amidst the distress, the state reported three flood-related fatalities, one missing person, and ten injuries.
