As the flood situation in Assam remains critical, rescue operations continue at full pace in the worst-affected Sivasagar district, where hundreds of people remain stranded in inundated villages. NDTV accompanied personnel from the State Disaster Response Force (SDRF) on a flood rescue mission, offering a rare look at the risks and challenges faced by rescue teams as they navigate strong currents and submerged areas to evacuate marooned families. The ground report captures the courage of the rescuers, the difficult conditions on the ground, and the ongoing efforts to bring people to safety amid one of Assam's worst flood spells. Watch NDTV's exclusive ground report from the heart of the rescue operation.
The flood situation in Assam remains critical, with Sivasagar district among the worst affected. In several stretches, floodwaters have overtopped National Highway 715 (NH-715), a crucial route connecting Upper Assam to Guwahati and providing access to parts of Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland. While one carriageway remains open for vehicular traffic, the other has been transformed into a waterway. Instead of cars, country boats are ferrying people between flood-hit villages and the highway, highlighting the scale of disruption caused by the floods. Road connectivity remains affected as residents rely on boats for daily movement and access to essential services. Watch NDTV's Ratnadip Choudhury report from the ground on how communities in Sivasagar are coping with the flood crisis.
