Itanagar: With improvement in weather conditions, the flood situation in Arunachal Pradesh is limping back to normalcy as majority of the rivers in this land-locked state showed a receding trend over the past two days.

Chief Minister Nabam Tuki on Saturday appealed to Union Home Minister P Chidambaram to send an official team to the state to assess the prevailing situation and the damages caused, thereby enabling the state government to ably tackle the situation.

Torrential rains have caused havoc in most parts of the state. Poor and rural people in interior parts are the worst affected, leaving hundreds of them to become homeless and marooned in different parts of these districts. (PTI)
