The mighty Brahmaputra is once again changing its course, triggering severe riverbank erosion across Upper Assam. In Dibrugarh, families are watching their homes, farmland, and livelihoods disappear as the river steadily advances toward human settlements.

DD India's ground report from erosion-hit Tinkong Matikata village highlights the struggles of local residents, including dairy farmers whose lives depend on the river islands. Despite large-scale erosion control projects supported by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), relentless river currents and flash floods continue to erode vast stretches of land, raising urgent concerns over long-term rehabilitation and permanent flood protection.
