Explanation:-
         
When the President’s Rule is imposed in a State the Parliament can delegate the power to make laws for the state to the President or to any other authority specified by him in this regard. When the President's Rule is imposed in a State, the Council of Ministers is necessarily dismissed and according to the Supreme Court judgement in the S.R. Bommai vs. UoI 1994 case, the State Assembly shall not be dissolved, till at least the Parliament approves the President's Rule. Under Article 356 (b), the President may declare that the powers of the State Legislature shall be exercisable by or under the authority  of  the  Parliament.  The  suspension  of  the  Fundamental  Rights  arises  only  when  National Emergency is imposed.
