&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;While reporting on the Assam floods in June, the Indian Express stated that Silchar &amp;ndash; southern Assam&amp;rsquo;s biggest town and the gateway to the three districts on the bank of the Barak river &amp;ndash; had submerged in water unlike &amp;ldquo;ever before in its history.&amp;rdquo; By the first week of July, the total death toll in the state had crossed over 170.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;On June 26, Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma claimed that the flooding in Silchar was &amp;ldquo;man-made.&amp;rdquo; &amp;ldquo;If the embankment at Betukandi was not breached [destroyed by people], this would not have happened,&amp;rdquo; he said. Betukandi is less than 10 kilometres away from Silchar.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;In the first week of July, four men &amp;ndash; Kabul Khan, Mithu Hussain Laskar, Nazir Hussain Laskar and Ripon Khan &amp;ndash; were arrested for their alleged involvement in causing the breach. A dyke or embankment is a structure that typically runs parallel to the course of a river in its floodplain or along low-lying coastlines. Its purpose is to keep the course of rivers from changing and to protect against flooding of the area adjoining the river or coast.&lt;/p&gt;

‘Flood Jihad’: How Media Outlets Communalised Silchar Floods -Archit Mehta

-TheWire.in More than a month after this incident, Assam’s chief minister called the flooding in Silchar a “man-made” disaster. Several media outlets then added an anti-Muslim spin. While reporting on the Assam floods in June, the Indian Express stated that Silchar – southern Assam’s biggest town and the gateway to the three districts on the bank of the Barak river – had submerged in water unlike “ever before in its history.” By the first week of July, the total death toll in the state had crossed over 170. On June 26, Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma claimed that the flooding in Silchar was “man-made.” “If the embankment at Betukandi was not breached [destroyed by people], this would not have happened,” he said. Betukandi is less than 10 kilometres away from Silchar. In the first week of July, four men – Kabul Khan, Mithu Hussain Laskar, Nazir Hussain Laskar and Ripon Khan – were arrested for their alleged involvement in causing the breach. A dyke or embankment is a structure that typically runs parallel to the course of a river in its floodplain or along low-lying coastlines. Its purpose is to keep the course of rivers from changing and to protect against flooding of the area adjoining the river or coast. Please click here to read more.
