The Central Water Commission’s official flood forecast for Assam has brought attention to an ongoing severe flood situation in the Dhubri district. The River Brahmaputra, a lifeline for the region, continues to pose a significant risk as it remains above its danger level.

As per the latest data, the River Brahmaputra at Dhubri is flowing at a level of 29.05 meters, which is a cause for concern as it is 0.43 meters above its danger level of 28.62 meters. This situation indicates that the region is facing the imminent threat of flooding, with the river’s water levels showing a falling trend but still at a critical level.

“The severity of the flood situation underscores the challenges that Assam and its residents regularly face during the monsoon season. Flooding in the state can lead to the displacement of communities, damage to infrastructure, and the loss of crops and livelihoods”.

Efforts to mitigate the impact of such floods include early warning systems, evacuation plans, and relief measures. Government agencies, local authorities, and relief organizations work tirelessly to provide assistance and support to those affected by these recurring floods.

It is crucial for residents of flood-prone areas to stay informed and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety during these challenging times. Additionally, continued investments in flood management infrastructure and disaster preparedness are essential for minimizing the impact of such natural disasters in the future.
