Answer:

The floods were caused by an excess Summer Monsoon that affected the state of Assam. By 21st of July, the meteorological subdivision of Assam and Meghalaya had received rainfall of 1,164mm as compared to normal rainfall of 894mm during the period, an excess of nearly 30%. The catchment areas of nearby states, Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim too received excess rainfall nearly to the tune of 16% and 45% respectively aggravating the flood situation. the state government has set up 621 relief camps for the affected.

The reason for the excess rainfall is attributed to Madden Julian Oscillation staying in the phases 8,1 thereby causing prolonged break-monsoon conditions which decreases the rainfall in North West India and increases it in North East India.
