Heavy rain triggered by the landfall of cyclone ‘Remal’ has caused flooding in parts of Manipur. Security forces deployed for internal security have swiftly responded by providing immediate relief and support to affected citizens. The rapid rise in water levels has caused major rivers like Nambul and Imphal to overflow into various parts of Imphal’s East and West districts. PM Modi took to his ‘X’ handle, expressed grave concern about the situation and said “Central government has assured all possible support.” Teams of NDRF, Indian Army and Assam Rifles along with local authorities, are carrying out rescue operations and saving people from various flood-hit areas of the region.
