Uttarakhand trust vote over, SC to announce result tomorrow

May 10, 2016 12:03

Uttarakhand floor test: Voting is over, the result will be sent in a sealed envelope to the Supreme Court. The SC will announce the results tomorrow.

A BJP MLA tells NDTV that they have been and are ready to sit in the Opposition.

Uttarakhand has been under President's Rule since March 27 when the Congress government was dismissed by the central government citing misgovernance in the state. The 70-member Uttarakhand assembly has been reduced to only 61 after the Supreme Court upheld the disqualification of nine Congress rebel legislators. The halfway mark to majority is 31. The Congress has 27 members and the BJP 28. There are six from the PDF. Their vote would be crucial for Rawat to win the vote.
