Article 356(1)(a) allows the President to declare that the powers of the Legislature of the State shall be exercisable by or under the authority of Parliament. This means Parliament gets the power to make laws for the State. Parliament can also delegate this power to the President, who may then further delegate it to a specified authority (usually the Governor) to make laws on behalf of Parliament.
