Urgent Alert: Guwahati’s Zoo Road Battles Surge in Dengue Cases, Stirring Anxiety and Action

October 23, 2024 1 Min Read

Guwahati is currently facing a significant dengue outbreak, with rising cases causing growing concern among residents. The situation is notably severe in the Zoo Road area, which has become one of the worst-hit localities recently. In response to the surge in dengue infections, authorities have designated Bhaskar Nagar, Karbi Path, Ambikagiri Nagar, and the Bamunimaidam Railway Colony as ‘Red Zone’ areas due to high case numbers.

Hospitals, including KGMT Hospital, are treating a continuous flow of patients suffering from dengue-related complications, reporting between 30 and 40 admissions over the past month. Despite the escalating crisis, there is a growing sentiment among residents that the authorities are not addressing the outbreak with the urgency it warrants.

As Guwahati battles this dengue challenge, local hopes are pinned on intensified efforts and strategic interventions to curb the spread of the disease and alleviate the situation.
