  • 1) A national emergency can be proclaimed due to war, external aggression or armed rebellion. (Note: it can't be proclaimed on the ground of "internal disturbance")
    2) though the proclamation of national emergence requires lok sabha's approval( simple majority) but its revocation requires the approval of both the houses (special majority)
    3) president can unilaterally revoke the proclamation of national emergency without the parliament's approval
    The proclamation of emergency requires approval of both houses with special majority and revocation only requires approval of lok sabha with simple majority
    The differences b/w resolution of proclamation and revocation of National Emergency are as follows:-
    The approval resolution must be passed by both houses but disapproval resolution is required to be passed by LS only.
    The approval resolution must be passed by special majority but disapproval resolution is need to be passed by simple majority.
