Ranajit Mandal, 35, the priest of a temple dedicated to Hindu goddess Durga stands by an empty plot where his house was washed away by erosion of the river Brahmaputra, as his wife collects gourds from her vegetable garden at Murkata village, northeastern Assam state, India, Thursday, Oct. 13, 2022. "The river has washed away everything, and we have no place to go back to now," he said. "Even though we are staying nearby now, if this continues, we'll have no choice but to move away from here, away from the river." (AP Photo/Anupam Nath)
