Actor Alia Bhatt has joined a growing list of public figures using their platforms to raise awareness about the devastating floods in Assam. Taking to Instagram Stories, Bhatt expressed deep concern over the ongoing crisis and appealed to her millions of followers to extend support to affected communities.
“Assam Needs Immediate Relief Right Now”
In a heartfelt note, Bhatt highlighted the massive scale of human loss and displacement across the state:
“Right now, floods are affecting so many parts of our country, with Assam being among the hardest hit, facing an incredibly challenging time. More than 60 lives have been lost. Lakhs of people have been displaced. Entire families have lost their homes, their land, their livestock… and for some, even the people they love. It happens every year and it still catches us off guard.”
Emphasizing the need for both immediate aid and sustained long-term rehabilitation, she pledged to use her social media presence to connect fans with verified ground organizations under the hashtag #CircleOfHope:
“Assam needs immediate relief right now, and it’ll need support for the long road to recovery. If you’ve been wondering how you can help, I’ll be sharing a few ways we can support relief efforts over the next few days, through organisations working on the ground.”
