Guwahati/Itanagar, June 25: At least four people are missing after flash floods triggered by heavy rainfall in Arunachal Pradesh, officials said.
Search and rescue operations are currently underway to trace the missing persons. Several areas have also reported damage due to rising water levels and sudden flooding.
In neighbouring Assam, authorities have issued a high alert as a precautionary measure due to the possible downstream impact of the floods. Disaster response teams have been placed on standby in vulnerable districts.
Officials said river water levels are being closely monitored, and people in low-lying and flood-prone areas have been advised to remain cautious and follow safety instructions.
Local administrations in both states are coordinating closely to manage the evolving situation and ensure timely response if conditions worsen.
The situation remains under continuous watch as rainfall continues in parts of the region.
