Assam flood: NDRF team carries out rescue operations in Barpeta

A team of National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) carried out rescue operation in flood-affected areas of Barpeta District.

The first battalion of NDRF reached the spots and evacuated 487 marooned villagers and transported them to safer places.

Teams are also assisting district administration in distribution of face masks, screening inundated areas and maintaining proper social distancing due to COVID-19.

Intense rainfalls have led to the Brahmaputra and its tributaries to flow above danger level in different parts of the state.
