‘Hope coming generation follows Jaiprakash Narayan’s footsteps’: Pawan

“We hope that the coming generation will walk on the steps of Jaiprakash Narayan,” he added.

Indira Gandhi had declared Emergency in the country on June 25, 1975 after the Allahabad High Court and subsequently the Supreme Court found her election to the Lok Sabha ‘null and void’. Formally proclaimed by then-president Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed, the decision to enforce the Emergency was taken without the approval of the then-union cabinet. (ANI)
