NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
Assam, a state in northeastern India, is prone to severe flooding during the monsoon season, which can have devastating effects on local communities. The region's geography, with the Brahmaputra River flowing through it, makes it particularly vulnerable to flooding, which can be exacerbated by heavy rainfall and storm surges. The fact that areas once thought to be safe are now being affected highlights the increasing severity of the flooding in Assam.
