Samay Raina donates Rs 10 lakh for Assam floods, Himanta Biswa Sarma thanks him

Standup comedian Samay Raina donated Rs 10 lakh to the Assam Chief Minister’s Relief Fund, extending support to flood-affected communities in the state. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma thanked the comedian and content creator in a social media post and said such contributions strengthen relief and rehabilitation efforts.

The acknowledgement was shared by the Assam Chief Minister’s Office on X along with RTGS (Real Time Gross Settlement) transaction advice. The official handle wrote, "HCM Dr @himantabiswa acknowledges the contribution of 10 lakh to the



Chief Minister's Relief Fund by Shri Samay Raina (sic)."

Assam continues to grapple with the impact of floods, with official figures showing that around 1.55 lakh people remain affected across 13 districts. The current flood season has claimed 98 lives, adding to the scale of hardship and displacement in the state.

Raina’s donation adds to the wider effort to support those affected by the floods. Sarma said contributions of this kind provide immediate relief and also encourage broader public participation in rebuilding lives and communities.
