On 19 June, Silchar town — the district headquarters of Cachar district — was inundated as water from the Barak river entered the town.

Guwahati: Police in Assam have ruled out a communal angle in the Barak embankment breach, which led to floods in the Cachar district, and urged people and the media to refrain from spreading rumours.

“There is no communal angle in this event. My appeal to various social media users and news channels is to kindly refrain from peddling these rumours without any evidence,” Cachar Superintendent of Police (SP) Ramandeep Kaur told a press conference on 6 July.  

On 19 June, Silchar town — the district headquarters of Cachar district — was inundated as water from the Barak river entered the town. While excessive rainfall led to a spate in the river, the situation is said to have been aggravated by a breach in the embankment at Bethukandi, 3 km from Silchar. 

Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma had surveyed the flood-affected town for the second time on 26 June and told the media that the flood was a man-made disaster.

The Cachar police apprehended four people last week — Kabul Khan, Mitu Hussain Laskar, Nazir Hussain Laskar, and Ripon Khan. While Nazir has been described as a contractor who would work at the embankment frequently, the others are said to be local residents.
