Governors Rule in Jammu & Kashmir
Srinagar/New
Delh: Jammu and Kashmir is all set to come
under a brief spell of Governor’s rule with the process of new government
formation following the death of Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed taking
some time.
The
President is understood to have cleared the recommendation of the Union Home
Ministry for imposing Governor’s rule on the basis of a recommendation from
Governor N N Vohra, sources said.
Union
Minister of State for Personnel Jitender Singh, who hails from Jammu region,
told reporters in Delhi that Governor’s rule has been imposed in the state for
now.
The
state had to be put under Governor’s rule in view of the reluctance of Mufti’s
daughter Mehbooba to take oath during the mourning period though her party has
already conveyed to the governor that 28 MLAs of the PDP legislature party
backed her for the Chief Minister’s post.
