The Supreme Court has stayed the Uttarakhand High Court's order. Judges Deepak Mishra and Shiva Kirti Singh are hearing the matter. The matter will be heard on April 27.


Which means, that as an interim measure, the SC has revived President's Rule in the state till April 27.


The Centre on Friday moved the Supreme Court challenging the Uttarakhand high court verdict quashing imposition of President's rule in the state.


Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi mentioned the appeal before a bench comprising Justices Misra and Singh, which asked him to approach the Registry for listing it for hearing on Friday itself.



The bench said that the Registry will seek permission from Chief Justice of India T S Thakur for listing of the appeal before an appropriate bench.


At the outset, the AG said that the Special Leave Petition has been filed on Friday morning but "we don't have the copy of the judgment' as it was not declared and only a speaking order was passed.A bench headed by Justice Misra was sitting in the CJI's court as the CJI was at a scheduled conference of high court chief justices and judges in the national capital.


Justice Misra said in view of the non-availability of the CJI, some arrangement has to be done for its listing.The AG said there was a need for an urgent hearing in view of the apparent problem likely to occur between Friday and Monday.


"I want to press for the stay today itself,' Rohatgi said.A petition was also filed by nine Congress rebel MLAs who were disqualified by the Speaker and they have challenged the HC verdict keeping them away from participating in the floor test scheduled for April 29.
