The Government of India has made a significant decision, declaring June 25 as ‘Samvidhan Hatha Diwas’ annually. This day will commemorate those who suffered during the Emergency of 1975. Union Minister Amit Shah announced this initiative, condemning the dictatorial actions of then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who imposed Emergency, stifling democracy and silencing the media. Prime Minister Narendra Modi echoed this sentiment, describing ‘Samvidhan Hatha Diwas’ as a reminder of how the government suppressed constitutional values during that dark period, honoring those who suffered and lost their lives.
On June 25, 1975, the then PM Indira Gandhi, in a brazen display of a dictatorial mindset, strangled the soul of our democracy by imposing the Emergency on the nation. Lakhs of people were thrown behind bars for no fault of their own, and the voice of the media was silenced.
