Answer
The President can declare a State Emergency or President's Rule when he is fully satisfied, based on the report of the Governor of the concerned state, that the constitutional machinery has broken down or the government cannot be carried on according to the provisions of the Constitution. He can then proclaim a State of Emergency in the state under Article 356. Such an Emergency must be approved by the Parliament within a period of two months.
