That's correct.

Article 256takes forward the idea of a unitary state as it ensures that the executive power of the Union shall extend to the giving of such directions to a State as may appear to the Government of India to be necessary for that purpose. It also stresses on the fact that the executive power of every State shall be so exercised as to ensure compliance with the laws made by Parliament and any existing laws which apply in that State.

Article 34 provides for the restrictions onfundamental rightswhile martial law is in force in any area.  It empowers the Parliament to indemnify any government servant or any other person for any act done by him in connection with the maintenance or restoration of order in any area where martial law was in force. The Parliament can also validate any sentence passed, punishment inflicted, forfeiture ordered or other act done under martial law in such area. It has no specific provision in the Constitution. It is implicit.
