The matter of Article 356 is so vexed that most regional parties remain stacked against its use. No party wants the central government to use it to impose President’s rule. It is for this reason that the Congress will raise the issue and try to garner support from regional parties. It is a different matter that the Congress too managed several defections when it was in power at the Centre. Parties were broken and Article 356 was used repeatedly to impose President’s rule is several states.
