Correct Answer: President


Solution : The correct answer is President.

Only with a written recommendation from the cabinet can the president declare a national emergency. Within one month, the proclamation must receive the blessing of both houses of the Parliament. The democratic apparatus' routine operation is currently suspended. Emergencies fall into one of three categories: national or general, resulting from a war, an external aggression, or an internal disturbance. Article 352 of the Indian Constitution allows the President to declare a national emergency.
