Guwahati, Aug 26 (IBNS): The Government of India is deputing a Central Disaster Management Team to Assam within one week to make a first-hand assessment of the damage caused by the recent waves of flood in Assam.

A communiqué to this effect has been conveyed to Assam Chief Minister Sarbananda Sonowal from the Union Home Ministry on Friday.

It may be mentioned that following a memorandum submitted by the Assam CM to the Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, seeking central assistance in connection with the flood damage in the State, the Central Team would visit Assam to assess the devastation caused to lives and properties by the recent waves of floods and unabated erosion.
