TIA NEWS /
Top Congress leaders and lawyers Abhishek Manu Singhvi and Kapil Sibal today moved the High Court in Nainital against the imposition of President’s Rule in Uttarakhand. A day after President’s Rule was imposed in Uttarakhand, Chief Minister Harish Rawat is likely to meet Governor KK Paul today. Senior party leader Kapil Sibal said President’s Rule was imposed a day before the floor test in the Uttarakhand Assembly as the Centre knew that Chief Minister Harish Rawat would be able to prove his majority.
The senior lawyer, who has been representing the party in Supreme Court in the Arunachal Pradesh case, added that he will also raise the issue there and tell the court that the Centre will replicate the model in other states as well. Capping a nine-day high-voltage political drama, the Centre on Sunday brought Uttarakhand under President’s rule citing a Constitutional breakdown in the state.
