Assam will begin compensation payments by mid-September if the August 30 survey stays on schedule, with the four districts most likely to receive the first wave of relief.
The survey is the bridge between disaster and relief, and its speed will determine whether affected families see aid before the next weather cycle. The compensation range also makes this a major test of administrative follow-through.
