At least 22 out of 35 districts in Assam have been hit by floods this year and the rescue operations were underway as the situation worsened in the state following heavy rainfall. Further, eight one-horned rhinoceros were rescued from flood-hit Kaziranga National Park in the last 2-3 days. The flood condition in Assam is reportedly the worst in a decade.
