Answer:
The Brahmaputra is both a lifeline and a threat to Assam.
Viewed from above, you will see that it is more than a river. It is a massive river system, of multiple channels and water bodies, crisscrossing large parts of Assam.
Assam receives both the monsoon rains and water from the rivers originating from the Himalayas – of which the Brahmaputra is by far the biggest. This should ideally be good news, but it isn't. The glacial melt in summer coincides with the monsoon, intensifying downstream, causing the annual flooding.
