Guwahati, Aug 18: Relief and humanitarian assistance for flood-affected families across Assam continues under the “Annapurna Muhim”, with volunteers reaching more than 10,000 people across over 2,000 families since the initiative began on July 24, 2026.
The relief campaign, being carried out by volunteers associated with disciples of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj under the guidance of Satlok Ashram, is currently covering flood-affected areas in Charaideo, Sivasagar, Jorhat and Golaghat districts.
The initiative has reached communities in Bihubar, Santak, Nazira, Nepali Khuti, Bamonpukhuri, Lakwa, Sonari and Tiyok, among other areas, with volunteers continuing to identify families requiring urgent assistance.
Freshly prepared meals and safe drinking water are being delivered directly to affected households. The relief effort also includes essential household items such as gas cylinders, mattresses, bedsheets, mosquito nets, glasses, bowls, ladles, plates, cooking pans and pots.
Medical kits containing essential medicines are also being distributed to families requiring basic healthcare assistance following the floods.
The campaign has extended beyond the distribution of relief materials, with volunteers helping residents clean flood-damaged homes. As floodwaters recede, volunteers are assisting families in removing mud, sludge and debris and cleaning household spaces so residents can begin returning to normal life.
“The relief effort extends beyond the distribution of food and materials,” according to the description of the initiative.
The campaign is focused on both immediate relief and supporting household recovery, with volunteers providing direct assistance to communities where the need remains acute.
“So far, the relief initiative has provided assistance to more than 10,000 people across over 2,000 families,” the initiative said in its account of the ongoing operations.
With relief activities continuing across the four districts, volunteers are expanding their reach to additional flood-affected communities and households.
The ongoing effort comes as families in several parts of Assam continue to deal with the aftermath of flooding, including damage to homes, loss of household belongings and disruption to access to food, drinking water and basic healthcare.
