Jammu and Kashmir Governor N.N. Vohra on Tuesday evening suggested to the Union Home Ministry that Governor's Rule should be imposed for six months in the state after the PDP-BJP coalition collapsed, official sources said.
Officials in the national capital said that Home Ministry has received the recommendation which will be sent to President Ram Nath Kovind for his assent.
The Jammu and Kashmir Constitution provides for Governor's Rule unlike other states which see President's Rule.
