The Emergency Fallout | Shah Commission & Democratic Revival 1975-1977 Vol 1- Part B

Описание: On June 25, 1975, India was plunged into one of the most controversial chapters of its history — The Emergency.

Declared by then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi under Article 352 of the Constitution, the Emergency lasted 21 months and saw the suspension of fundamental rights, mass arrests, press censorship, and unprecedented centralization of power.

This video provides a timeline-based deep dive into:

📌 The political and judicial build-up
📌 The landmark Allahabad High Court verdict disqualifying Indira Gandhi
📌 The midnight declaration of Emergency by President Fakhruddin Ali Ahmed
📌 Suspension of civil liberties and mass detentions under MISA
📌 Censorship of newspapers, film, and radio
📌 Forced sterilizations and population control drives
📌 Draconian constitutional amendments like the 42nd Amendment
📌 Eye-witness quotes from Morarji Desai, Jayaprakash Narayan, Fali Nariman, H.R. Khanna, and MC Chagla
