Indian state facing floods prepares for more rain.

The floods in Assam have displaced hundreds of thousands of people. 

The flood-hit Indian state of Assam is on high alert as it prepares for further rainfall in the coming days. 

The north-eastern state has been swamped with floodwaters for many days, affecting over 600,000 people and killing 34. 

Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has stated that the next few days could be "critical" because India's weather authority predicts additional rain in some areas. 

Every monsoon season, flooding in Assam's enormous network of waterways causes widespread harm to life and property.

In 2022, floods displaced about four million people and killed at least 45. 

The flood floods wreaked havoc in Assam and sections of neighboring Bangladesh, flooding villages, ruining crops, and damaging homes. 

On Monday, the Assam Disaster Management Authority said that all of the state's rivers had crossed the danger mark in numerous places, and that the floods had affected at least 19 of the state's 35 districts.

 Thousands of people are seeking refuge in relief centers around the state. 

The same day, Mr Sarma stated that the state was witnessing a "second wave of flooding" as a result of severe rains in neighboring Arunachal Pradesh and several areas of Assam.

He noted that the next three to four days might be important, depending on the rains.

 Mr Sarma stated that flood waters have inundated various portions of Kaziranga National Park, a world heritage site known for the Great Indian one-horned rhinoceros, forcing animals to relocate from wooded regions to surrounding hills. 

He noted that state and national disaster response teams were ready to assist individuals. 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has guaranteed the state of the federal government's support in the event of a crisis.

The Indian Meteorological Department predicts heavy rains in Assam and the neighboring state of Meghalaya through Friday.
