Comprehension Passage
Read the passage below and answer the following questions.
On 12 June 1975, Justice Jagmohan Lal Sinha of the Allahabad Court passed a judgment declaring Indira Gandhi's election to the Lok Sabha invalid. This order came on an election petition filed by Raj Narain, a socialist leader and a candidate who had contested against her in 1971. On June 24, the Supreme Court granted her a partial stay on the High Court order- till her appeal was decided, she could remain an MP but could not take part in proceedings of the Lok Sabha. The stage was not set for a big political confrontation. The opposition political parties led by Jayaprakah Narayan pressed for Indira Gandhi's resignation and organized a massive demonstration in Delhi's Ramlila ground on 25 June 1975. Jatyaprakash announced a nationwide satyagraha for her resignation and asked the army, the police, and government employees not to obey"illegal and immoral orders." This too threatened to bring the activities of the government to a standstill. The response of the government was to declare a state of emergency. On 25 June 1975, the government announced that there was a threat of internal disturbances and therefore invoked Article 352 of the Constitution. Under the provision of this article, the government could declare a state of emergency on the grounds of an external threat or a threat of internal disturbances. The government decided that a grave crisis had arisen which made the proclamation of a state of emergency necessary.
