The correct answer is: B. 1947<\/strong><\/p>\n

Governor’s rule is a constitutional provision in India that allows the central government to take over the administration of a state if the state government is unable to function. The President of India can impose Governor’s rule in a state if the state government is dissolved, if the state government loses the confidence of the Legislative Assembly, or if the state government is unable to carry on the business of the state in accordance with the Constitution.<\/p>\n

The first time Governor’s rule was imposed in Jammu and Kashmir was in 1947, shortly after the state acceded to India. The state was then ruled by Maharaja Hari Singh, who had signed the Instrument of Accession with India on October 26, 1947. However, the Maharaja was unable to control the situation in the state, and on November 1, 1947, he fled to Jammu. The Indian government then imposed Governor’s rule in the state.<\/p>\n

Governor’s rule has been imposed in Jammu and Kashmir several times since 1947. The most recent time was in 2018, when the state government was dissolved after the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) withdrew support from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).<\/p>\n
