IndiaA minister from Nagaland called for collaboration between Assam and Nagaland to address the recent floods rather than engaging in blame-shifting. The floods have caused significant loss of life and displacement in several districts of Assam, with some attributing the disaster to environmental degradation in Nagaland, such as illegal mining and deforestation. Nagaland's minister denied these claims and emphasized efforts toward afforestation and conservation. Meanwhile, Assam's chief minister announced a crackdown on unauthorized flood relief fundraising activities, which have been prevalent in urban areas. Schools in flood-affected regions are set to resume classes soon, though some institutions may require alternative arrangements.
