The President of India can declare a National Emergency based on which of the following grounds?
-
A.
War
-
B.
External Aggression
-
C.
Armed Rebellion
-
D.
All of the above
Correct Answer:
D. All of the above
Explanation:
Under Article 352 of the Indian Constitution, the President has the authority to proclaim a National Emergency if the security of the country or any part of it is threatened by war, external aggression, or armed rebellion. Originally, the Constitution used the term internal disturbance, but this was replaced by armed rebellion via the 44th Amendment Act of 1978. Since all three conditions—war, external aggression, and armed rebellion—are valid legal grounds for such a declaration, the correct answer is all of the above.
