Share To Survive :
Even as Assam is being ravaged by the successive waves of floods and erosion of the Brahmaputra and its tributaries, the state’s ambitious plan for setting up an early flood warning system is getting thwarted due to tardy flow of data from the Central Water Commission (CWC).
Meeting About Majuli :
Today a meeting was held in Garamur (Majuli) with the people of Majuli and our minister Mr. Rajib Lochon Pegu. Where a good discussion was held to save Majuli. Everyone made Brahmputra board responsible for the current situation in Majuli. Almost all Satrdhikars and representative of all organization was present there. Finally the meeting decided to give a dead line to Brahmputra board to finish their work. Otherwise Majulians will kick them out form Majuli.

Majuli :
Mājuli or Majoli (Assamese: মাজুলী) is a large river island in the Brahmaputra river, in Assam, India.
Mājuli had a total area of 1,256 square kilometres (483 sq mi), but
having lost significantly to erosion it has an area of only 421.65
square kilometres (163 sq mi) in 2001.
The island is formed by the Brahmaputra river in the south and the Kherkutia Xuti, an anabranch of the Brahmaputra, joined by the Subansiri River in the north. Mājuli island is accessible by ferries from the City of Jorhat. The island is about 200 kilometres east from the state's largest city —Guwahati. The island was formed due to course changes by the river Brahmaputra and its tributaries, mainly the Lohit. Mājuli is also the abode of the Assamese neo-Vaisnavite culture....
