Hint: Proclamation of emergency means that if the president thinks that a grave emergency exit and the security of India is threatened in that case he can proclaim an emergency in the country.

Complete Answer:
Under Article 352, the President can give an announcement of the National crisis on the ground of war, outside hostility, or furnished resistance. The impact of this crisis is that while it is inactivity, the life of Lok Sabha may be reached out past its typical term i.e., past five years by a law of Parliament. It tends to be stretched out for each year in turn and can't be proceeded past a half year if the crisis has stopped to work or been denied. Under Article 352, the President can give a declaration of national emergency on the ground of battle, outside antagonism, or outfitted opposition. The effect of this emergency is that while it is in movement, the life of Lok Sabha may be connected past its commonplace term i.e., recent years by a law of Parliament. It will in general be loosened up for every year thusly and can't be continued past a half year if the emergency has halted to work or is denied.

Thus, Option C is the right answer.

Note: The Government referred to dangers to public security, as a battle with Pakistan had as of late been finished up. Because of the war and extra difficulties of the dry season and the 1973 oil emergency, the economy was in a helpless condition. The Government guaranteed that the strikes and fights had incapacitated the public authority and harmed the economy of the nation extraordinarily.
