Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah today called for the immediate imposition of governor's rule in the state, stressing that it was the only way to control tension in the country. "We have never been promoters of governor's rule; we have always opposed it. He added that in the two months of Governors rule in January last year, Kashmiris had seen "good" governance. "It was during the short period of governors rule that flood relief money was disbursed to the poorest of the poor without any political favours," he said. Abdullah reiterated that the states troubles would disappear once Governors rule was announced.
