A ‘Health Emergency’ is not explicitly mentioned as a form of Emergency in the Constitution of India.

The Indian Constitution provides for three types of emergencies: National Emergency (under Article 352), State Emergency or President’s Rule (under Article 356), and Financial Emergency (under Article 360).

While a severe health crisis could potentially lead to actions being taken under existing emergency provisions (like National Emergency if it threatens the security of India), or specific disaster management laws, a dedicated ‘Health Emergency’ category is not defined in the Constitution.
