✦AI Summary
Assam is facing its worst flooding in 60 years, with the death toll rising to 41 and over 8 lakh people affected. State officials attribute the unprecedented scale of the disaster to a cloudburst in neighboring Nagaland that caused severe water inflow into districts not typically prone to such flooding.
The ongoing wave of floods in some eastern districts of Assam has been the worst in 60 years, the State government said on Wednesday (July 22, 2026). The floods have affected more than 8 lakh people and claimed at least 30 human lives in less than a month.
