State of Emergency
A "State of Emergency" is a situation declared by a government when there is a significant threat to public safety or national security. This can occur due to natural disasters, civil unrest, or other crises. During this time, the government may implement special measures, such as curfews or restrictions on movement, to maintain order and protect citizens.
In a State of Emergency, certain rights may be temporarily suspended, allowing authorities to act swiftly. This declaration is often accompanied by increased police presence and resources to manage the situation effectively. It is a legal framework that enables governments to respond to emergencies more efficiently.
