Heavy Waterlogging Halts Traffic at Assam-Meghalaya Border

Heavy rains over the past week have flooded the roads along the Assam-Meghalaya border, creating large puddles and mud that have halted most vehicular traffic. Local transport operators report that buses and trucks have been stranded for hours, with some routes completely blocked. The Assam State Transport Department has deployed water pumps and cleared minor obstructions, but the flooding remains widespread. Authorities have issued a warning to motorists to avoid the affected stretch until the water recedes, which officials expect to take a few more days.
