High Court sets aside President's rule in Uttarakhand, orders floor test on April 29 In a major setback to BJP, Nainital High Court on Thursday set aside President’s rule in Uttarakhand. After two consecutive days of hearing on a matter filed by ousted chief minister Harish Rawat, the court said the proclamation of central rule in the state stood null and void. Congress leader and former finance minister Indira Hridayesh said her party “saluted the judiciary for upholding truth and law”. Earlier during the day, the High Court asked government to consider putting the revocation of President’s Rule on hold for a week. Coming down heavily on the Centre the High Court said, “Tomorrow if you revoke president rule and invite somebody it will be a travesty of justice, is Government a private party?” For latest breaking news, other top stories log on to: http://www.abplive.in & https://www.youtube.com/abpnewsTV
