Answers
Such a proclamation can be made for the whole of India or any part thereof. The President can issue different types ofp proclamations on different grounds. The President is not prevented from proclamation of emergency when another type of Emergency is already in operation. The President can proclaim National Emergency only on the written advice of the Cabinet.
In India National Emergency is announced:
1. Between 26 October 1962 to 10 January 1968 during the India-China war — “the security of India” having been declared “threatened by external aggression”.
2. Between 3 December 1971 to 1977(ref. D.D.Basu”INTRODUCTION TO THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA”) originally proclaimed during the Indo Pakistan war, and later extended along with the third proclamation — “the security of India” having been declared “threatened by external aggression”.
3. Between 26 June 1975 to 21 March 1977 under controversial circumstances of political instability under the Indira Gandhi’s prime ministership — “the security of India” having been declared “threatened by internal disturbances”.
If the President is satisfied that there exist a grave emergency whether due to war or external aggression or armed rebellion, then President can proclaim emergency to that effect. He can also proclaim even before the actual threat occurs.
