Sadar-i-Riyasat’s letter to Bakshi Ghulam Mohammad on August 9, 1953
Karan Mahal,
Srinagar,
August 9, 1951.
My Dear Bakshi Sahib,
I have just dissolved the cabinet which functioned till today and have relieved it of the powers and functions of civil administration of the State. I, however, feel that a new Cabinet
should be constituted immediately so as to avoid a political and administrative vacuum.
In the task of forming a new Ministry, I have decided told seek your aid and advice. Will you, therefore, make it con-venient to meet me immediately so that we might discuss the formation and composition of the new Cabinet?
I need hardly and that the continuance in office of the new Cabinet will depend upon its securing a vote of confidence from the Legislative Assembly during its coming session.
Yours sincerely,
(Sd/-) Karan Singh.
