NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday condemned the imposition of Emergency, saying those who imposed Emergency not only murdered the Constitution but also intended to make the judiciary their puppet.
Modi made the remarks during the 123rd episode of his monthly radio show, Mann Ki Baat, the first after the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government marked June 25 as Samvidhan Hatya Diwas to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the imposition of Emergency.
"Those who imposed Emergency not only murdered our Constitution but also had the intention to keep the judiciary as their slave. During this period, people were tormented on a large scale. There are many such examples of this, which can never be forgotten," he said.
