Shashi Tharoor, Congress MP from Thiruvananthapuram, has made controversial statements criticizing Indira Gandhi’s emergency period. Tharoor described the emergency as an erosion of freedom and spoke about the draconian measures and unspeakable cruelty that occurred during that time. He highlighted the forced sterilization campaign and its impact on poor and rural areas. Tharoor emphasized that today’s India is different from 1975, calling it a more confident, prosperous, and robust democracy. However, he stressed that the lessons of the emergency should be kept in mind. The BJP has responded, with spokesperson Tom Vadaken stating that Tharoor has seen through the Congress party’s U-turn on defending the emergency.
