The north-east had witnessed unprecedented floods as a result of which the damage was colossal and the relief and rehabilitation operations were disrupted, he said in a statement here. During his visit to the north-east in August, to review the flood situation in the four states, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced a flood relief package of Rs 2,000 crore. Singh said a high-level committee had also been constituted to monitor the flood-related operations and plan a future roadmap to avoid such situations.
