Which of the following are not necessarily the consequences of the proclamation of the President's rule in a State? 1. Dissolution of the State Legislative Assembly 2. Removal of the Council of Ministers in the State 3. Dissolution of the local bodies Select the correct answer using the code given below:

1. When President's rule (Article 356) is proclaimed in a State, the President assumes the executive functions of the State government. 2. Statement 1: The Dissolution of the State Legislative Assembly is *not* a necessary consequence. The President can either suspend or dissolve the Assembly. Often, the Assembly is kept in suspended animation initially, allowing for the possibility of forming an alternative government. 3. Statement 2: The Removal of the Council of Ministers in the State *is* a necessary consequence. When President's rule is imposed, the State government (led by the Chief Minister and Council of Ministers) is dismissed, and the Governor administers the State on behalf of the President. 4. Statement 3: The Dissolution of the local bodies (like Panchayats and Municipalities) is *not* a necessary consequence of the proclamation of President's rule. These bodies generally continue to function. 5. The question asks which are *not necessarily* the consequences. Statements 1 and 3 are not necessary consequences. 6. Therefore, the correct answer is (B) 1 and 3 only.
