It may be mentioned that severe flooding in Assam has killed at least 73 people and displaced more than 40 lakh people. Lower Assam has been one of the worst-hit areas, with five major rivers flowing above the danger level in certain places, including the Brahmaputra, one of Asia’s largest rivers.

Meanwhile, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma directed air dropping of food and other relief materials in areas where there is heavy inundation, officials said. Mr Sarma gave the direction after a review meeting with his cabinet colleagues and senior district officers during the day.
