Notes on a dark chapter

- Smriti Kak Ramachandran

NEW DELHI: No Indian will ever forget the excesses imposed during the Emergency when the spirit of the Constitution was violated and ordinary citizens jailed, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday as he took shots at the Congress on the 50th anniversary of the dark period.

The Union Cabinet, presided by Modi, adopted a resolution against the Emergency and resolved to commemorate and honour the sacrifices of countless individuals who resisted the measure. It also observed a two-minute silence as a mark of tribute to them.
