Explanation

President's Rule is imposed in a state under Article 356 of the Constitution when the state government cannot function according to the Constitution. This happens when the Constitutional machinery in the state breaks down. The President assumes all functions of the state government and the state legislature is either suspended or dissolved. Article 352 relates to National Emergency, and Article 358 deals with suspension of Fundamental Rights during emergency.
