Farmers Use National Highway To Dry Crops As Floods Ravage Assam
A 2 km stretch of a four-lane National Highway that links Guwahati to northern Assam has been closed for traffic as farmers affected by the recent floods in the state have set up temporary shelters on the road.With their houses and paddy fields under water, several farming households were forced to set up camp on the road to escape from flood water and to dry the harvest from their lands.
