Authorities are running relief camps and distribution centres in four districts, where 117 people have taken shelter, it said. Trouble mounts as the Brahmaputra is flowing above the danger level at Nimatighat in Jorhat district and Tezpur in Sonitpur. Road connectivity has been affected in Morigaon, Nagaon and West Karbi Anglong districts while 43 relief camps have been set up in three districts so far, the ASDMA said.
