Answer
Exam answer
(c) The Governor.
Explanation
Read the question carefully: it asks who RECOMMENDS, not who proclaims. President’s Rule under Article 356 is proclaimed BY the President, but only on receiving a report from the GOVERNOR of the state that its government cannot be carried on in accordance with the Constitution. Option (a) is therefore the trap for anyone who answers from the name of the rule rather than from the process.
In words
The Governor.
