Question

When was President Rule imposed in Rajasthan due to unclear majority in the Assembly Elections?

A.

1977

B.

1980

C.

1967

D.

1992

Correct option is C

The correct answer is (c) 1967.
Key Points:
· President's Rule was imposed in Rajasthan in 1967 due to an unclear majority in the State Assembly Elections.
· The Assembly elections held in 1967 resulted in a hung assembly, with no party able to secure a clear majority.
· This led to a political deadlock, and as a result, the central government imposed President's Rule in the state.
· President's Rule in India refers to the suspension of a state government and the imposition of direct central government rule, typically when no party or coalition can form a stable government.
Information Booster:
· 1967 Elections: This election was a significant turning point in Indian politics, as it marked the decline of the Congress party's dominance in many states, including Rajasthan.
· Hung Assembly: A situation where no single political party or pre-existing coalition has an absolute majority in the legislature after an election.
· President's Rule: The imposition of President's Rule means that the Governor of the state administers the state on behalf of the President of India, effectively bringing the state under central control.
· Historical Context: The imposition of President's Rule is generally viewed as a measure of last resort, and it has significant political implications for both the state and the central government.
