Helicopter Airlifts Deliver Relief to Flood-Isolated Villages in Arunachal Pradesh
Heavy monsoon rains in Arunachal Pradesh's Upper Subansiri district damaged roads and bridges, isolating 42 villages across Nilling, Lingdam, and Upper Giba circles. The district administration, with the Department of Civil Aviation, initiated helicopter airlifts of essential supplies including rice and medicines to these areas. Helicopter sorties on July 22 and 23 transported relief materials to ensure continued access amid disrupted road connectivity, with coordinated efforts involving multiple government departments for safe and efficient operations.
