An Inter-Ministerial Central Team (IMCT) from the Government of India visited Assam’s Bajali district on July 11 to assess the damage caused by the recent floods and review the relief and response measures undertaken by the district administration.
The central team carried out a detailed inspection of flood-affected areas to evaluate the extent of damage as well as the emergency relief operations implemented by the local authorities.
As part of the visit, the team inspected several severely affected sites, including breached embankment sections at Muguria, the damaged Hathinapur-Rajakhat-Barsimla road, and the flood-ravaged areas of Bagana, to obtain a firsthand assessment of the destruction caused by the floods.
The visit is intended to assist the Centre in evaluating the scale of losses and the effectiveness of the relief measures. The findings of the IMCT will serve as the basis for determining financial assistance and long-term rehabilitation support for the affected district.
The Assam government said the visit reflected the Centre’s commitment to supporting the state’s recovery efforts and restoring normalcy in flood-hit regions.
The inspection was coordinated by the district administration in the presence of officials from the Chief Minister’s Office, the Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA), and local public representatives, including Cabinet Minister Ranjeet Kumar Dass and MLA Dharmeswar Roy.
