The correct answer is option 3: The Council of Ministers of the Union.

The President of India can issue a proclamation of National Emergency only on the written recommendation of the Council of Ministers of the Union. The Council of Ministers is a body of senior government officials, including the Prime Minister and other Cabinet Ministers. They are responsible for advising the President on important matters, including the declaration of a National Emergency.

This recommendation is important to ensure that the decision to declare a National Emergency is made collectively by the executive branch of the government. It ensures that such a severe measure is not taken unilaterally but is carefully considered by a group of experts and representatives of the government.
