As the hilly state of Himachal Pradesh continues to reel under the deadly monsoon fury, Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu on July 10 briefed on relief and restoration measures being taken by his government, in view of flash floods, landslides and damage to infrastructure due to continuous heavy rain in the state. Similar conditions are in Punjab and Uttarakhand as heavy rains triggered landslides and have left hundreds stranded as several roads — including National Highways– have been damaged due to landslides, adversely impacting vehicular movement in Himachal Pradesh.
