Heavy rainfall starting May 13, 2026, in the Garo hills region and Meghalaya runoff caused rapid water level rise in Sherpur's rivers (Chellakhali, Bhogai, Maharshi, and Someshwari), leading to flash floods and embankment breaches in Nalitabari and Jhenaigati. By May 14, waters began to recede, and officials initiated relief efforts for affected areas.
