Bhutan 🇧🇹 24/7 Flood Monitoring Control Room Planned for Amochhu River Basin 🇮🇳

Plans are underway to establish a round-the-clock flood monitoring control room for the Amochhu river basin in Phuentshogling. The initiative was discussed during the 39th Joint Expert Team (JET) meeting between the Royal Government of Bhutan and the Government of India, held in Paro on October 8–9.

The JET oversees the implementation of the “Comprehensive Scheme for Establishment of Hydro-meteorological and Flood Forecasting Network on Rivers Common to India and Bhutan,” a collaborative effort that began in 1955. Under this framework, Bhutan shares hydro-meteorological data with India, aiding flood forecasting in Assam and West Bengal.

During the meeting, both sides reviewed the progress of the GoI Flood Warning program under the NCHM for FY 2025–2026 and approved new activities for FY 2026–2027. They also discussed long-term plans and proposed initiatives for 2026–2031.

The JET meets twice a year, alternating between Bhutan and India—before and after the monsoon season. The previous meeting was held in Kolkata, India, in December 2024, while the next session is tentatively scheduled for April 2026 in India.
