Over 2,00,000 people have been rescued since the floods arrived in the state and communication networks have also been mostly restored.

The Army has deployed about 30,000 troops for rescue and relief operations and soldiers distributed 2,24,000 litres of water and food to survivors.

In a gesture of solidarity, staff at the Indian Prime Minister's Office (PMO) also gave up one day's salary for flood relief.
