The Uttarakhand High Court on Thursday quashed the imposition of President' rule in the state and revived the Congress government headed by Harish Rawat, who has been asked to prove his majority on April 29.
Coming down heavily on the Centre for the March 27 proclamation under Act 356, a division bench of the high court headed by Chief Justice K M Joseph said the imposition of the President's rule was contrary to the law laid down by the Supreme Court.
Hailing the Uttarakhand High Court verdict setting aside President's rule in the state and restoring his government, Rawat said the Modi government should forget the recent developments and cooperate.
An upbeat Harish Rawat made it clear that his government does not want to pursue a confrontationist path with the "mighty, powerful and broad- chested" Centre, asking it to work in a spirit of cooperative federalism.
