President is not king, Guv is not agent: HC on Uttarakhand
HINDUSTAN TIMES, NEW DELHI | 22 April 2016 10:25 IST
The Uttarakhand High Court on Thursday quashed the President’s rule on Thursday, restoring Congress leader Harish Rawat as the chief minister, nearly a month after he was ousted.
The court came down heavily on the central government for its March 27 move to dismiss Rawat under the much-contested article 356 that empowers the union cabinet to impose President’s Rule in a state.
