Nainital, Apr 6 (IBNS) he Uttarakhand High Court on Wednesday rejected the Centre's plea for adjournment of hearing on the petition challenging imposition of President's rule in the state.

The high court  said it won't deal with the budget appropriation issue till the government files its response.

Earlier, the  High Court had disapproved of the Centre's move to impose  President's Rule in the state, saying  the floor test is the best method to judge the strength of rival forces.

 
Meanwhile, the Congress, in its affidavit filed in the Uttarakhand High Court on Wednesday, said there is no doubt about the Assembly proceedings on March 18 when the Appropriation Bill was passed by a voice vote.

The Congress also argued that the motion for division of votes or amendment moved were meaningless.
