Solution

The correct option is C 1 year
The duration of a state emergency is two months. If it were to continue beyond two months, it should be ratified by the Parliament. The Proclamation will cease to be valid for six months after the date of its issue even if the Parliament ratifies it. Thus, President's rule can normally continue only for a year.
