Shatrughan Sinha questions 'advisors' on Presidential Rule on Arunachal Pradesh

"I have tremendous faith in our dashing dynamic action hero PM. But wonder who the "great" advisors are who advised President's Rule in AP," Sinha tweeted.

"That too when the matter is sub judice, in the Supreme Court, under a 5 judge constitutional bench. Wonder what was the hurry and worry," he said.

"God forbid, if the decision does not go in our favor, wonder what explanation and answer we will have for our respected PM," the BJP leader said.

In a crucial observation made by the Supreme Court on Wednesday, the apex court gave the Centre two days time  to give reply to its notice on the issue of President's Rule in Arunachal Pradesh.

The Centre have to give its reply by Jan 29.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday  asked the Arunchal Pradesh governor  submit the report he gave to the central government making the recommendation for President's rule in the state.

The Centre recommended President's rule after an unscheduled cabinet meeting called by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday, after the governor submitted his report on an emergency situation in the state.
