B. On recommendation of Chief Minister
C. On recommendation of Cabinet
D. When the Governor is satisfied that the government of the state cannot be carried on in accordance with the provisions of the constitution.

Explanation:

Article 356 of the Indian Constitution states that if the President, on receipt of a report from the Governor of a State or otherwise, is satisfied that a situation has arisen in which the Government of the State cannot be carried on in accordance with the provisions of this Constitution, the President may issue a Proclamation. The Governor's report is a key trigger for this.
