- True
- False
Answer: True
From Germany (Weimar Constitution), India borrowed Emergency provisions: (a) National Emergency (Article 352) for war/external aggression/armed rebellion, (b) Suspension of Fundamental Rights during Emergency (with safeguards added by 44th Amendment), (c) Executive powers during crisis. However, Indian Constitution includes more safeguards (Parliamentary approval, judicial review, non-suspendable rights) to prevent misuse like in Weimar Germany.
