Dramatic visuals from Ledum village in Arunachal Pradesh’s East Siang district showed floodwaters inundating roads after a river overflowed, while survivors recounted how the deluge “washed away everything.”The first wave of floods in Assam has affected more than 22,000 people across six districts following days of heavy rainfall in the state and neighbouring Arunachal Pradesh, officials said. Floods and landslides have also caused widespread damage in several parts of Arunachal Pradesh, inundating houses, disrupting infrastructure and prompting rescue and evacuation operations.Meanwhile, the death toll from a rain-triggered flash flood in Arunachal Pradesh’s Keyi Panyor district rose to three after the body of a missing man was recovered in the adjoining Papum Pare district on Sunday. Authorities said 128 households have been affected in the district, while a relief camp set up at the NEEPCO campus is currently sheltering 60 displaced residents as search and rescue efforts continue.ArunachalA video captured a massive landslide at Siji Block Point in Arunachal Pradesh’s Lower Siang district, raising fears of a dangerous flash flood.Visuals from Possa village in Arunachal Pradesh’s Keyi Panyor district showed widespread destruction caused by a cloudburst-triggered flash flood on June 24 that killed one woman, while four others remain missing.NDRF teams are conducting search and rescue operations in Yazali, Keyi Panyor district, to trace people missing after a cloudburst-triggered flash flood on June 24 that claimed the life of a woman.”Five people were reported missing in the NEEPCO area. The SDRF, district administration, and police initiated a search operation…The NDRF team arrived yesterday and is searching. We are utilising special equipment, canine units, and boats to search various locations…Additional teams equipped with specialised gear are set to join us today, so we will likely intensify the search operation by evening,” ANI quoted deputy commandant Anand Kumar Patel as saying.AssamVisuals from Assam’s Dhemaji district showed several areas submerged after continuous heavy rainfall triggered a flood-like situation.Heavy rainfall and severe riverbank erosion caused a partial collapse of a railway bridge over the Simen River in Assam’s Dhemaji district, prompting authorities to suspend train operations on the affected route, a Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) official said. According to the NFR, more than 110 mm of rainfall in and around Dhemaji triggered flooding and extensive bank erosion, affecting the bridge between Archipathar and Simen Chapari stations. The bridge, originally built in 1965 and later converted to broad gauge, was structurally sound, but the erosion washed away a significant portion of the riverbank, destabilising one of its supporting piers.Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said he is closely monitoring the flood situation in Dhemaji district and has directed two senior cabinet ministers to camp in the flood-hit region to oversee relief and rehabilitation efforts.”Since the flood situation has unfolded in Dhemaji, I’ve been closely monitoring the situation. We are deeply saddened by the impact it has had on the lives of our people and in this difficult time, we firmly stand with them. We are deploying a whole of government approach and mobilising all our resources to prioritise the immediate safety and long term rehabilitation of all families affected,” he said in a post on X.Get the latest India news and live updates.

Today, the people of the state have begun searching for where it has gone,” he said while addressing a wedding function in Pudukkottai.At another function in Orathanadu in Thanjavur district, Udhayanidhi said the government’s failures had become evident within a month of taking office.He alleged that ordinary citizens were struggling with power cuts, water shortages and worsening law and order.Referring to Vijay’s remarks in the Assembly, Udhayanidhi said Perambur voters were searching for their MLA, while people across Tamil Nadu were searching for electricity, water and public safety.He also criticised the functioning of the Assembly, saying it resembled a film set rather than a legislature.”It makes us wonder whether this is an Assembly, a cinema theatre, or a shooting spot,” he said.Udhayanidhi alleged that the chief minister appeared more focused on camera angles than governance and accused him of staging a performance every day.He further claimed that the TVK government continued to target the DMK while welcoming “corrupt forces”, which, he alleged, became “pure forces” after joining the ruling party.Defending flagship welfare programmes introduced during the previous DMK government, Udhayanidhi said schemes such as the ‘Kalaignar Magalir Urimai Thogai’ and ‘Puthumai Penn’ remained popular among the public and alleged that the government was struggling because it was unable to discontinue them.Calling on party workers to remain united, he urged them to take responsibility for resisting what he described as the government’s “anti-people activities.”Addressing a separate event at the DMK headquarters in Chennai, former chief minister M K Stalin claimed Tamil Nadu was in danger of “descending into a state of deep mess” within a month of the change in government.He alleged that industries were reluctant to invest in Tamil Nadu and were instead choosing other states.”Industrial units are reluctant to invest in TN and are preferring other states. There are sexual assaults, burglary and murders everywhere. Saddest part is that ruling party members are accused in many of the crimes,” Stalin said.He claimed the state had witnessed rapid development during the DMK’s tenure, attracting global investments and generating employment through welfare and development programmes.”But now there are power outages everyday while farmers in the delta are in distress,” he said, alleging that the government was running the administration in a “‘take diversion’ mode.”Stalin also claimed that people had realised they had made a mistake by voting for the TVK and said both those who voted for the ruling party and those who did not were now suffering.Warning party workers to remain prepared for a fresh electoral battle, Stalin said elections could be held earlier than expected.”Elections could be there anytime, in three months or six months. So be prepared,” he said.He also alleged that the TVK government continued to survive because of support from its former allies.”But we don’t know when that would end,” Stalin said.Get the latest India news and live updates.
