Assam floods leave 35 dead, over 100 missing; toll may rise, says CM Himanta Biswa Sarma
Assam's chief minister reported thirty-five flood deaths and over one hundred missing people. He expressed apprehension that the casualty figure will rise further due to widespread devastation. Several areas remain inaccessible to rescue teams, leaving thousands stranded in floodwaters. Floods were triggered by a cloudburst in Nagaland's Mon district, affecting multiple districts. Opposition questioned the government's preparedness and flood management strategy during the assembly session.
