A boat capsized on India's Brahmaputra River on January 27, 2026, leaving six missing and sparking renewed safety concerns.
On January 27, 2026, a motorized country boat capsized in the Brahmaputra River near Rahampur, Assam, leaving six people missing, including several children.
The boat, carrying 22 to 36 passengers, overturned likely due to strong currents or a whirlpool, with 13 to 28 others rescued.
Rescue efforts by NDRF, SDRF, police, and local fishermen are ongoing.
Witnesses report the boat lacked life jackets and safety measures, highlighting concerns over unsafe river transport.
This follows similar accidents in Assam, including one in October 2025 and another in June 2025, raising calls for stricter enforcement of safety regulations despite a 2018 ban on such boats.
