Article 72 of the Constitution of India empowers the President to grant pardons, reprieves, respites, or remissions of punishment.
Article 72 of the Indian Constitution grants the President of India the power to grant pardons, reprieves, respites, or remissions of punishment, or to suspend, remit, or commute the sentence of any person convicted of any offence in cases where the punishment is by a Court Martial, relates to a matter to which executive power of the Union extends, or is a sentence of death.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the core constitutional provision being tested
The question asks for the specific Article granting judicial/pardoning power to the President of India.
Constitutional provisions explicitly delineate executive authority between Union and State functionaries.
2
Recall relevant constitutional articles regarding executive powers
Article 72 belongs to Part V (The Union) under the President's powers, whereas Article 161 belongs to Part VI (The States) under Governor powers.
Distinguishing Union Executive powers from State Executive powers prevents misattribution of constitutional articles.
