Solution (By Examveda Team)
Assertion (A): The President of India can issue a Proclamation of Emergency under Article 352 of the Constitution if there is an imminent danger of war, external aggression, or armed rebellion. The earlier term "internal disturbance" was replaced by "armed rebellion" through the 44th Amendment Act, 1978.Reason (R): During an emergency, the President has the power to suspend certain fundamental rights under Article 359 of the Constitution. These rights can be restricted or suspended for the duration of the emergency, especially in cases related to war or external aggression.
Since the Reason explains the Assertion correctly, the answer is: Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
