2022 Silchar Floods

So, floods are when there is a lot of water in places where there shouldn't be a lot of water. In 2022, Silchar had floods because there was more water than could fit in the rivers and lakes around Silchar. This could be because of heavy rain, melting snow, or other reasons.

The floods caused a lot of problems for people living in Silchar. Their homes were filled with water, so they couldn't live in them anymore. They had to evacuate and find somewhere else to go. People also lost important things like their belongings and their crops. The floods made it hard for people to get food and clean water too.

The government and volunteers tried to help people affected by the floods by providing food, water, and shelter. They also helped people clean up and repair their homes once the water went down.

It's important for people to prepare for floods by having an emergency plan and being ready to evacuate if necessary. That way, if there is a flood, people can stay safe and protect their homes and belongings as much as possible.
