The imposition of President’s Rule is justified and constitutionally valid in the State of Volmir.
This is because there has been a breakdown of constitutional machinery due to the large scale
disruption of public order as well as the political instability. It is further contended that the
floor test is not a mandatory obligation before the imposition of President’s rule. Further, all
procedural requirements under Article 356 are complied with. Hence the imposition of
President’s Rule is valid.
