Over ten people were believed to have died in Goalpara district when cloudburst took place in Garo hills of Meghalaya on Monday.
The cloudburst triggered devastating flood in the lower Assam district leaving over ten people dead in the morning beside rendering lakhs of people homeless forcing the government to deploy NDRF in relief and rescue operations.
Roads and bridges in many places were washed away from the strong flood waves. The death toll is likely to go up as more and more areas have come under the surging areas. Marooned people are being shifted to higher ground.
