In the S.R. Bommai v. Union of India case (1994), the Supreme Court laid down guidelines regarding:
- Appointment of Governors
- Imposition of President's Rule under Article 356
- Reservation in promotions
- Judicial appointments
Answer: Imposition of President's Rule under Article 356
The landmark S.R. Bommai case (1994) established strict guidelines for imposing President's Rule under Article 356: (1) Floor test is the primary method to test majority, (2) Presidential proclamation is subject to judicial review, (3) State Assembly can only be dissolved after Parliament approves the proclamation, (4) Secularism is part of basic structure. This curbed arbitrary use of Article 356.
