The death toll from the Assam floods has risen to 105, with nearly 32,000 people still affected by the deluge, officials said.
The flood situation in Assam has worsened, with the death count now at 105 and close to 32,000 residents reporting damage or displacement. The rising numbers come amid continued heavy monsoon rainfall that has saturated rivers and swollen streams across the state. Local authorities are coordinating rescue and relief operations, but the scale of the disaster has stretched resources thin.
In the wake of the latest figures, state officials have urged residents in flood-prone districts to remain vigilant and to follow evacuation orders. Relief teams are working to provide shelter, food, and medical aid to those who have lost homes or livelihoods.
The government has also called for additional support from central agencies to manage the ongoing crisis. While the exact impact on infrastructure remains to be fully assessed, the high casualty and displacement numbers underscore the severity of the flooding.
