Guwahati, Jun 29 : Flood ravage continues in as many ten districts of Assam as swelling waters of the rivers are submerging new areas.
Large areas of Barpeta, Baksa, Kokrajhar, Bongaigaon and Dhubri districts have been inundated following reported release of Kurichu dam water in neighbouring Bhutan.
Vast areas of the Manas and Kaziranga National Parks and the Pabitora wildlife sanctuary have been submerged.
The high speed flow of water breached two vital embankments of Beki and Mora Pagladiya rivers.
Surface communication remained disrupted in the flood-hit districts.
The State Government has instructed the district authorities to gear up relief and rescue measures among the flood-ravaged areas.
