What is the difference between a Proclamation of Emergency and a Proclamation under Article 356?
A Proclamation of Emergency, as defined in Article 352, can be issued by the President if there is a threat to national security or unity, such as war, external aggression, or armed rebellion. On the other hand, a Proclamation under Article 356 can be issued by the President when the governance of a State cannot be carried on in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution. The key difference is that an emergency proclamation deals with national security issues while a proclamation under Article 356 relates to governance and administration within individual states.
