Cabinet Passes Resolution Condemning Emergency
The Morning Standard
|June 26, 2025
The Union Cabinet on Wednesday passed a resolution condemning the proclamation of Emergency in the country 50 years ago and observed a two-minute silence to pay tributes to those whose constitutionally guaranteed democratic rights were taken away and who were then subjected to "unimaginable horrors".
Reading out the resolution at a press briefing after the meeting, Minister for Information & Broadcasting Ashwini Vaishnaw said, "The Union Cabinet paid tributes to their exemplary courage and valiant resistance to the Emergency's excesses."
The government led by the then Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi, imposed the Emergency on June 25, 1975. Last year, the Modi government announced the day would be observed as "Samvidhan Hatya Divas".

The Young Regret Their Actions; the Old, Their Inaction
Youth tend to act first and reflect later. This may explain why many young people spend a fair bit of time regretting ‘sins of commission’, or things they’ve said or done. These ‘sins’ are usually the result of impulsive actions, poor decisions or simple social missteps. Feelings of regret may arise from cruel words hurled at parents, a fight with a sibling, a reckless purchase, a cringe-worthy message sent to an ex at 2 am, or a job impulsively quit.
