Hope it helps....!!!!

Main Reasons:

✔️Heavy Rainfall in some year or some continuous spell of heavy rain either in Assam or in the upstream region of it’s main rivers.

✔️Rainfall in upstream also contributes to flooding, as the water flow increases downstream.

✔️Physiology of the region is still young and the lesser Himalaya regions are still in the process of forming. The soft rocks, in the absence of green top cover, easily gives way to gushing waters.

✔️Brahmaputra valley carries huge amount of water and is one of the most hazard prone area. Sediment load of Brahmaputra is highest in the world and thus it makes 40% of Assam’s land as flood prone.

✔️Human-induced problems like destruction of wetlands, deforestation, and encroachments on river banks.

✔️Most cities and towns suffer due to poor planning.

✔️Organised system of flood-related data logging is fairly new and inexperienced in the State. Also, the State Disaster Management came into being only in 2010.

✔️Explosive population growth in the state which led to encroachment of riverine areas, char areas, natural water reservoir areas etc. which alter and degrade the natural drainage system.
