Imphal, May 31 2025:
A team of senior officers from the Home Department, Police and Relief & Disaster Management conducted an aerial inspection of the flood-affected areas in Imphal East district today.
The inspection, carried out by using helicopter, enabled the team to have a comprehensive view of the most impacted zones.
This has helped the inspection team to assess the extent of damage and the urgent needs of the affected population.
It is a part of the multi-pronged strategy initiated by the State Government, which is working round-the-clock to control and mitigate the effects of the ongoing flood.
The authorities are coordinating with all relevant departments and agencies to ensure provision of timely relief and rehabilitation efforts.
Essential services such as water supply, sanitation, healthcare and emergency shelter are being prioritized to support the affected population.
As Manipur has been receiving heavy rainfall continuously, necessary instructions have been passed on to all Deputy Commissioners to be alert and take all necessary measures to provide relief measures to affected people and take steps to clear landslides.
The emergency control room number - 0385-2451550 may be contacted for flood and rain related issues.
The Government has also appealed to all residents of vulnerable areas to stay vigilant and follow the safety guidelines issued by the authorities from time to time.
