== 2016 Assembly suspension ==
==Members of Legislative Assembly==


In March 2016, capping a nine-day high-voltage political drama, the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]]-led [[Government of India|Union Government]] brought Uttarakhand under [[President's rule]] citing a [[constitutional breakdown]] in the wake of a rebellion in then state-ruling [[Indian National Congress]], which slammed the decision calling it a "murder of democracy" and a "black day".
{|class="wikitable sortable"
 
|-
[[President of India|President]] [[Pranab Mukherjee]] signed the proclamation under [[Article 356 of the Constitution of India|Article 356]] of the [[Constitution of India]] dismissing the INC-ruled [[Government of Uttarakhand|State Government]], the [[Chief Minister of Uttarakhand|Chief Minister]] [[Harish Rawat]] and placing the Assembly under suspended animation on the recommendation of the [[Union Council of Ministers|Union Cabinet]].
!No.
 
!Constituency
The Union Government was of the view that continuance of the [[Harish Rawat ministry|Rawat government]] was "immoral and unconstitutional" after 18 March 2016, when the [[Speaker of the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly|Uttarakhand Assembly Speaker]] declared the [[appropriation bill]] "passed" in controversial circumstances without allowing a [[Division of the assembly|division]] pressed for by 35 MLAs, including 9 rebel Congress legislators.

!colspan="2"|Party
The Union Cabinet had held an emergency meeting on Saturday night presided over by [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]] [[Narendra Modi]], who had cut short a visit to [[Assam]] to return to the [[New Delhi]] for the purpose.
!Remarks
 
|-
The Cabinet considered several reports received from [[Governor of Uttarakhand|Governor]] [[Krishan Kant Paul]], who had described the political situation as volatile and expressed apprehensions over possible pandemonium during the scheduled [[Floor test|trial of strength]] in the Assembly on Monday.
 
The purported CD of the [[sting operation]] conducted against the Chief Minister that was in public domain on Saturday was understood to have been factored into the decision of the Cabinet which found it as a case of [[Vote trading|horse trading]].
 
Additionally Two Uttarakhand MLAs, one each from Indian National Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party were on 9 June suspended for [[cross-voting]] during the floor test that was held on 10 May. [[Speaker of the Uttarakhand Legislative Assembly|Speaker]] [[Govind Singh Kunjwal]] suspended BJP MLA [[Bhim Lal Arya]] and INC MLA [[Rekha Arya]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://english.pradesh18.com/news/uttarakhand/two-uttarakhand-mlas-suspended-for-cross-voting-during-trust-vote-897075.html|title=Two Uttarakhand MLAs suspended for cross-voting during trust vote|website=english.pradesh18.com|access-date=2 February 2020|date=9 June 2016}}</ref>
 
==Current Assembly==
This is 4th [[State legislative assemblies of India|Vidhan Sabha]] ([[Legislative Assembly]]) of the state. The last state elections were held in February 2017, when the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] won an overwhelming majority of 57 seats in the 70-seat electoral legislature. The [[Indian National Congress]] has secured only 11 seats in 4th assembly. The [[Independent politician|Independents]] have bagged 2 seats.

President Pranab Mukherjee signed the proclamation under Article 356 of the Constitution of India dismissing the INC-ruled State Government, the Chief Minister Harish Rawat and placing the Assembly under suspended animation on the recommendation of the Union Cabinet.

The Union Government was of the view that continuance of the Rawat government was "immoral and unconstitutional" after 18 March 2016, when the Uttarakhand Assembly Speaker declared the appropriation bill "passed" in controversial circumstances without allowing a division pressed for by 35 MLAs, including 9 rebel Congress legislators.

The Union Cabinet had held an emergency meeting on Saturday night presided over by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who had cut short a visit to Assam to return to the New Delhi for the purpose.

The Cabinet considered several reports received from Governor Krishan Kant Paul, who had described the political situation as volatile and expressed apprehensions over possible pandemonium during the scheduled trial of strength in the Assembly on Monday.

The purported CD of the sting operation conducted against the Chief Minister that was in public domain on Saturday was understood to have been factored into the decision of the Cabinet which found it as a case of horse trading.

Additionally Two Uttarakhand MLAs, one each from Indian National Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party were on 9 June suspended for cross-voting during the floor test that was held on 10 May. Speaker Govind Singh Kunjwal suspended BJP MLA Bhim Lal Arya and INC MLA Rekha Arya.[6]
