During this, Union Minister Shekhawat fiercely targeted the Congress regarding the Emergency. He said that when the Constitution of the country was murdered, the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, in her desire for power, demolished all the basic pillars of the country and imposed Emergency. Fundamental rights were violated during the Emergency. After the arrest of Jayaprakash Narayan, who led the movement, Prabhash Joshi wrote powerful and thought-provoking articles, which awakened the country and united the people for the restoration of democracy.
Parliament should not be made a platform for disruption or anarchy
The monsoon session in the Lok Sabha is witnessing a lot of political turmoil. Meanwhile, there is a lot of rhetoric between the Congress and the BJP. Regarding the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament, Shekhawat said that I believe that there are many important and relevant issues before the country, on which there should be open discussion and dialogue, Parliament is a platform for dialogue. I sincerely hope that it will be used for constructive deliberations, and not be made a platform for disruption or anarchy.
