85 dead, 70 lakh displaced: Assam floods make the impacts of climate change in South Asia pronounced 

In the news 
On 20 July with six more deaths, the flood-related death toll in Assam now stands at 85. The Chief Minister of Assam Sarbananda Sonowal has informed that around over 70 lakh people have been displaced and many more affected in the third wave of floods that started since May. The district of Goalpara is the worst hit with over 4.53 lakh people suffering, followed by Barpeta with around 3.44 lakh persons and Morigaon with more than 3.41 lakh people. The current deluge has affected the Assam's Kaziranga National Park; more than 109 animals have been killed, including nine endangered one-horned rhinos.

Issues at large
First, shifting rainfall patterns in the flood-prone riverine geography compounded the deluge. The floods in Assam have been ravaging since 28 May when the Cyclone Amphan triggered the State's first flash floods affecting nearly three lakh people in the nine districts of the State. With the advent of the flash floods, the episodes of extreme rain and short summer months led to waves of floods that started inundating the riverine beds and flooding several districts. Even though the floods in Assam are annual affairs, the summer months getting replaced by extreme rain events and cloudburst add to the recent trends in shifting rainfall patterns that have been increasingly predicted by climatologists in South Asia. 

Second, flood control measures have done little to stop floods. The system of embankments in controlling the swelling of the river has, in turn, confined the course of the river and in an episode of heavy rain, the river swells up breaching the banks. The embankments which were supposed to be a temporary solution has now become a permanent way of life for the riverine communities in surviving the annual floods. In addition, the communities have also moved closer to living in the flood-prone areas, and as the intensity of rain changes the flood severity, the community is completely unprepared to high-intensity flood. Also, this time, the incessant rainfall has led to the release of dam water further worsening the flood situation in Assam.

Third, the flood is an annual affair, but a largescale displacement of both humans and animals was not. In Assam flooding in both the national park and upper region occurs annually. However, this is the second time a row, both animal and human have been displaced in large numbers. Almost the entire Kaziranga has submerged, putting the survival of many endangered species at peril. While in monsoon the Brahmaputra has been flowing above the mark, but this time the water level in the Barak river was also recorded to have risen. The geography of the river valley is such that tributaries join the Brahmaputra leading to swelling of water level and the flood is ecologically considered essential for revitalizing part of the grasslands in Kaziranga. With the whole park inundated, the animals didn't have any higher grounds to migrate. Similar has been the fate of the human when the river water flooded deep inland. 

Last, overworked and fatigued disaster and relief bodies. The flood took place when the State is dealing with rising COVID infection numbers. The central government by bringing COVID-19 as a natural disaster emergency has put the control of the disease spread with the state disaster management authorities leaving them little space and scope to prepare and focus on natural disasters like the flood or cyclone. The relief measures by the disaster management authorities are far less than the number of people displaced already. The funds being now used for health infrastructures, little attention was given in predicting the deluge and mitigating it after the first wave of floods. 

In perspective
The floods in Assam is not an isolated incident. With similar floods like incidents in the Bihar-Nepal border and Bangladesh, increased attention needs to be paid to adaptation policy from the rom the Himalayas to the deltas... This policy has to come from the region collectively. With most of the rivers in South Asia emanating from the Himalayas, the legislative and infrastructural negligence is not something that the region can afford anymore. As more cloudbursts like incidents rise, it's cross border impacts on the ecology as well on human are becoming more pronounced. The cumulative effect of this long-term climate change impacts has been displacement. With displacement, the trends of climate refugees and economic migration will follow. With four million people already displaced in South Asia due to flooding, how long before the region realizes that rehabilitation of more than four million is arduous and not possible without a proper climate-focused labour policy of the region.

Suspected Bangladeshis lynched for cattle-smuggling at Assam border

In the news

On 18 July, three suspected Bangladeshi nationals were lynched in the southern district of Karimganj in Assam over an alleged cattle-theft attempt. This incident is second in a row after the first case of lynching was reported on 1 June for similar reasons. The latest incident took place in Bogrijan tea estate, located approximately 400kms from Guwahati under the jurisdiction of Patharkandi police station. According to local authorities, items recovered from the scene such as fence cutters and Bangladeshi food items point towards the Bangladeshi identity of victims and the BSF has been in touch with Border Guards Bangladesh over the concern of official identification. The perpetrators of the crime are however yet to be identified.

Issues at large
First, an unfenced porous border led to persistent security concerns. The border area in Karimganj where both incidents of lynching took place, is one particularly difficult corridor to bring under complete surveillance. The thick forest in the border, close to the Patharia reserve, serves as an elephant corridor that has led to the dilemma of preserving natural balance and maintaining strategic security. Thus, the border remains porous often leading to loopholes exploited by cattle smugglers irrespective of their national identities.

Second, unaddressed outrage from the locals over cattle theft has translated into resentment towards both criminals and the local authorities. The locals, particularly those living closer to borders have frequently complained of repeated attempts of cattle theft, but in vain when the perpetrators often prove to be Bangladeshi nationals, aided by Indians. In addition, the BSF sources have reported an unusual spike in the cattle smuggling from India into Bangladesh as the Islamic festival of Eid-ul-Adha approaches. The official data shows that it has been largely the Indian side dealing with the thefts. Hence after repeated instances of cattle smuggling (which mean loss of livelihood avenues), the locals seem to resort to a quicker form of justice that can bring them instant gratification as the local authorities fail to do little.

Third, a sharp rise in mob mentality and a tendency towards violent retaliation. There have been repeated cases of mob lynching not just in Assam but all over the country and this trend of violent intolerance is on the rise since 2015. As the region of Assam particularly struggles with the exercise of NRC and subsequently, CAA- the act of 'othering' has tended to result in violent courses of action guised as mob justice. In 2018, two Assamese youth from Guwahati lost their lives to mob mentality over a case of mistaken identity. Such recurring violence points to not only an environment of constant suspicion but also a loss of faith in law and order. The lynching has come at a time when the suspicion against others and the lack of trust in the justice mechanism are pronounced. 

In perspective
The partially unfenced status of the boundary between India and Bangladesh will continue to be a source of concern between the two countries. Not only the boundary that is irregularly geo-coded, to begin with, but it also runs along with riverine islands and other water bodies that cannot be effectively mapped, leading to frequent border skirmishes. However, while the States involved debate over strategic concerns, the locals experience the border through their everyday lives every differently and it is mostly a battle with its impacts on a real-time basis. The State only concerns itself to peripheral problems when its sovereign status or territorial integrity is in immediate danger. The repeated incidents of cattle theft, while a concern nonetheless, does not qualify as a formidable threat to India, thus allowing the loopholes to persist. This will keep contributing to the resentment at the very grass-root level with the smugglers symbolizing long term negligence on part of the authorities.

Opposition in Mali rejects mediators' plan
The political opposition in Mali has called for more protests after rejecting the plan that was put forth by the regional mediators from the 15-nation regional bloc known as ECOWAS who called for the creation of a unity government by the president of Mali Ibrahim Boubacar Keita. The mediators proposed that the current ruling coalition make up 50 per cent of a new unity government, while a proposed 30 per cent should be members of the opposition and the remaining 20 per cent from civil society groups. However, the recommendations were rejected by the opposition who demanded that the President should leave entirely, adding that the plan did not reflect the goals of a movement that was supported by the majority of the Malian people. President Keita, who still has three years left in his final term faced demonstration since early June, after a dispute over the results in legislative elections which took place in March, opposition politicians and civil society formed the '5 June Movement', calling for anti-government protests and demanding Keita quit.

Protests in Russia's far east distinctly chant anti-Putin slogans 
Demonstrators in Russia's far eastern city of Khabarovsk have taken to the streets over the last week, protesting against the arrest of the region's Governor Sergey Furgal on charges of involvement in multiple murders. Many have expressed their support for the arrested politician, demanding that Furgal be given a fair trial at his home soil, however, many of the protest signs and chants were anti-Putin as well. Further, these demonstrations have come after President Vladimir Putin oversaw a controversial vote earlier this month that allows him to extend his hold on power until 2036. The vast rallies in the city of Khabarovsk on the border with China have become a growing concern Russia, however surprisingly the Kremlin has shown a degree of tolerance in its reaction to the situation with no heavy-handed intervention from police till date.
