Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma stated that the flood situation in Upper Assam is showing signs of improvement with receding water levels in many affected areas. He assured that the state government is actively engaged in rescue and relief operations. Sarma mentioned that the administration is closely monitoring the flood situation, especially in the Nazira area of Sivasagar district, which has been severely impacted.
Teams involved in rescue and relief efforts are working diligently to ensure affected residents have access to essential supplies like drinking water, food, and medicines without any disruptions. Sarma noted that while the floodwaters are slowly receding, relief operations will persist until normalcy is fully restored. The state government is committed to providing all necessary assistance to families affected by the floods, collaborating with district administrations and disaster response agencies to ensure timely relief reaches every affected village.
The Chief Minister announced his plans to personally visit the flood-affected regions within the next one or two days to assess the situation on the ground and evaluate the progress of ongoing rescue and rehabilitation measures. He emphasized the government’s intensified relief operations in the flood-affected districts, with officials actively monitoring embankments, distributing relief materials, and offering emergency support to those displaced by rising waters.
As efforts are underway to restore normalcy in flood-hit areas, the government is closely monitoring river levels and weather conditions to respond promptly to any further developments. Authorities have advised residents in vulnerable areas to remain vigilant and cooperate with local officials as relief and rehabilitation measures continue across the affected districts.
