SHIMLA: The Himachal Pradesh State Assembly's monsoon Session, which begins on Monday afternoon, after the state has suffered massive devastation triggered by incessant rains, flash floods, and cloudbursts, is likely to be stormy.

While the Opposition BJP has already geared itself up to raise questions on state government efforts relating to relief and rehabilitation, the ruling Congress is finalising its strategy to counter the offensive, giving full details on how it has responded to the unprecedented situation despite "no help" pouring in from the Central government.
