Assam Flood Hit Villages

The flood situation in Assam continued unabated today with over 8 lakh people across 2,585 villages in 29 districts hit by the natural disaster. Fourteen people have died in the floods and landslides triggered by pre-monsoon rains.

A risky boat ride through flood waters and a walk for a few miles through inundated paddy fields lead to the fringes of Hatigarh in Assam's Nagaon district - one of the worst-hit in the state.

More than 7.17 lakh people spread over 1,929 villages across 29 districts of Assam have been hit by heavy floods triggered by pre-monsoon rain. Nine people have died.

Close to 90,000 people have been hit in Assam as a second wave of floods ravaged the state, affecting 153 villages in six districts including Dhemaji, Lakhimpur, Darrang, Golaghat, Sivsagar and Charaideo.

Heavy rainfall in Arunachal Pradesh and Assam for the last two days had led to flooding of rivers. Most of the villages were affected due to old embankments that were not repaired for several years.
