Q. Assertion: Electromeric effect is brought into play only at the requirement of the reagent.
Reason: It is a temporary effect in which bond pair is shifted to one of the constituent atoms.

AIIMSAIIMS 2009Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Solution:

It is a temporary effect. It comes into play instantaneously at the demand of the attacking reagent and as soon as the attacking reagent is removed the original condition is restored.
