Urban flood has added to Assam’s monsoon woes this year.
Many localities in Guwahati, Assam’s principal city, and Nalbari town about 70 km west have been inundated due to incessant rainfall from June 13. The rains have also led to at least 12 cases of landslips in Guwahati, killing four people so far.
Such has been the situation that the local authorities have asked all educational institutions to remain shut in the urban areas till June 18.
