		</div><p>Pre-monsoon deluges have flooded parts of India and Bangladesh, killing at least 24 people in recent weeks and sending 90,000 people into shelters, authorities said.</p>
<p>Both heavily populated nations in South Asia are prone to frequent floods and are considered major victims of climate change.</p>
<p>The deaths have been reported since April 6 in India’s north-eastern region, with the Assam state continuing to experience floods.</p>
<p>Those who have left their homes due to the floods are staying in 269 camps set up by authorities.</p>
<p>The Indian army and air force have had to evacuate thousands of people in the last two weeks.</p>
<p>Helicopters have been dropping essential items to people stuck in vulnerable spots in the worst-hit Dima Hasao district.</p>
<p>The Indian Space Research Organisation is using satellites to assess the damage.</p>
<p>Flash flooding is also occurring in the Bangladeshi districts of Sylhet and Sunamganj, which border India’s north-east.</p>
<p>At least three rivers were flowing above the danger level on Monday, said Arifuzzaman Bhuiyan, executive engineer of the Flood Forecasting and Warning Centre in Dhaka, the capital.</p>
<p>Bangladeshi media said hundreds of villages have been marooned and crops have been damaged badly.</p>
<p>People also lack drinking water because wells have been under floodwaters or water supply systems have been damaged.</p>
<p>No casualties have been reported in Bangladesh so far.</p>
<p>The Jamuna TV station said while flood waters were receding in some areas, many new areas were affected by new flooding on Monday.</p>
<p>Authorities said hundreds of villages remain cut off from electricity and roads have been damaged extensively.</p>
