Guwahati, 30 June (HS): Assam Chief Minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma on Tuesday said the state government is extending all possible support to people affected by the severe floods in the greater Jonai region of Dhemaji district following an uncontrolled surge of water from the adjoining hill areas.

The deluge has damaged houses, agricultural land and livelihoods, forcing many families to endure difficult conditions.

He added that several measures have already been initiated to address the crisis and reaffirmed that the government would continue to stand by the flood-affected people until normalcy is restored.-----------
