Responding to the call, a protest rally was taken out at North Lakhimpur town on Wednesday. It marched from DK Road Chariali via Bazarpati to Lakhimpur DC Office under the initiative of the party's Lakhimpur District Committee. Workers and supporters gathered ignoring heavy rainfall and thronged the streets with slogans demanding to provide adequate food items, drinking water to the flood-affected people, to provide medical care in flood-affected areas, provide proper compensation to the people who have lost their houses, property in the flood, to realize the plight of the flood-affected people.
