According to officials the flood scenario in the state continues to remain grim. Over 63,000 people still remain affected by the floods across the five inundated districts.

"The death toll in the ongoing flooding has rose to 32," a local government official said.

The authorities have set up 26 relief camps and distribution centres in the affected districts to reach out to the people.
