Arunachal Pradesh: The north-eastern state saw 26 days of President’s Rule in 2016 after 21 Congress MLAs held hands with 11 BJP and two Independent MLAs, lessening the administration into a minority. Be that as it may, the issue was tested in the zenith court and it, in aold move, reestablished the Congress government.

Uttarakhand: The slope state saw President’s Rule twice in 2016 — for 25 days and 19 days independently. Initially, it occurred after a split in the state Congress and afterward again in May that year.
