Alia Bhatt Calls for Assistance Amid Assam Flood Crisis

New Delhi, July 29 - Actress Alia Bhatt has expressed her concern regarding the devastating floods in Assam, urging her followers to contribute to relief efforts. The flood situation in Assam began on July 19, leading to significant destruction in the region. On Wednesday, Alia shared a post on her Instagram story highlighting the urgent need for assistance.

She stated, “Many parts of the country are currently affected by floods, with Assam being one of the hardest-hit areas facing extremely challenging conditions. So far, over 60 lives have been lost, and millions have been displaced.”
