Article 355

Centre to warn Orissa, Karnataka under Article 355:

"Article 355 is a rarely used constitutional provision that typically holds out the threat of dismissal of a state government and imposition of President's rule if the warning of the Centre goes unheeded.

Under Article 355, a duty has been cast on the Union government to ensure that governance in states was carried out in accordance with the Constitution."


The issue of evoking this article has come up during the riots in Orissa and Karnataka.
