Road links in Dibang Valley, Lower Dibang Valley, Anjaw, Upper Siang, West Siang, East Siang and Lohit districts have been disrupted as all the inter district roads and highways were either blocked by landslides or swept away by waters.Dibang Valley district has remained cut off from rest of the country since last 10 days. The water level of river Dibang and its tributaries are flowing above danger level. Anjaw district was also cut off for last three days due to landslides at different locations. All the rivers in the district were flowing above danger mark resulting inundation of large areas which submerged agricultural field and residential area. The flood situation in Siang belt has further worsened due to uninterrupted rain for past few days. Flood situation in Lohit district too remains unchanged. 16 relief camps are operating in the district with over 2300 inmates.
