Congress Working Committee member Shashi Tharoor said that Sanjay Gandhi, son of Indira Gandhi, forcibly carried out a sterilization campaign. This became an incorrect example of emergency. Violence and forced violence were carried out to meet arbitrary goals in rural areas. In cities like New Delhi, slums were brutally demolished and cleaned. Thousands of people became homeless. His welfare was not taken care of.

He said that democracy should not be taken lightly. It is a valuable heritage that must be consistently nourished and preserved. Let it work as a permanent reminder for people around the world. Today’s India is not India of 1975. He said that we are more confident, more developed and more strong democracy in many ways. Nevertheless, emergency lessons are still worrying relevant.

Tharoor said that the temptation for centralizing power, suppressing disagreement and bypassing constitutional security measures may appear again in various forms. Often such trends can be justified in the name of national interest or stability. Emergency is a tough warning in this sense. The defenders of democracy always need to be cautious.
