Artifical floods threaten estate [1]

Artificial floods in Jorhat district have threatened the existence of a tea estate with the garden authorities today appealing to the district administration to bail it out of the crisis.

More than 50 per cent of the 174 hectares of Haru-charai tea estate, 16km from here, has been inundated by floodwaters for the last few days.
