Relief and rehabilitation in full swing
Relief and rehabilitation operations are continuing in the flood-hit areas, with the Assam government reviewing the situation in the worst-affected districts and directing officials to expedite assistance to affected families.
Around 90 relief camps have been set up across the state, sheltering over 28,000 displaced people.
Meanwhile, connectivity in Upper Assam has been fully restored, marking a significant step in the recovery process after floodwaters disrupted road and communication networks.
An inter-ministerial central team has also visited flood-hit districts to assess the extent of the damage and evaluate the need for additional assistance and rehabilitation measures.
As floodwaters begin receding, our focus is expanding from relief to restoration.

Calls for long-term flood solution
Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge have called for stronger relief measures and a long-term flood mitigation strategy, arguing that Assam needs a permanent solution to its recurring flood crisis.
Civil society members and public figures have also stepped forward to support relief efforts. Singer Papon has appealed for nationwide assistance for flood victims, while actor Salman Khan, through his charitable initiatives, has begun distributing food and essential supplies in affected areas.
A recurring monsoon challenge
Assam faces severe flooding almost every monsoon due to the overflowing Brahmaputra River and its tributaries. Heavy rainfall, riverbank erosion and siltation continue to contribute to widespread inundation across the state year after year.
