In Shimla (Himachal Pradesh) [India], Bharatiya Janata Party state president Rajiv Bindal on Monday criticized Congress and said the party should stop instigating citizens in the name of the Constitution. He also said Congress should first review the history of June 25, the black day in the nation's history.
BJP Himachal Pradesh state president Rajiv Bindal said: "During the 2024 election campaign, the Congress Party talked about the Constitution and instigated the society and the country that the Constitution would be changed and abolition reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs if Narendra Modi becomes Prime Minister. They got a huge number of votes for this statement But the reality is that between 1947 and 2014, the Congress Party and the Congress Government abolished the sections. of the Constitution more than 50 times in the name of constitutional amendment, the basic spirit has been abolished, the harmful effects of which have been felt throughout the country."
"The Constitution that was framed under the presidency of Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar Ji was framed to achieve the long-range objective of India, but the previous Congress pundits, in their greed for votes and for the realization of their selfishness, to save their throne, they made the Constitution many times and violated it," he added. Recalling the moments of emergency, Bindal stated: "June 25, 1975 was a black day when Mrs. Indira Gandhi (former Prime Minister) pushed the country towards the dictatorship to save her chair. On the morning of June 25, 1975, she put all the country's influential leaders behind bars, imposing an internal emergency in the country at midnight on June 24. She even took away her "freedom." of the press" and freedom of speech, freedom of expression and freedom of writing were abolished."
Going further, he said: "The media people who dared to write anything, their newspapers, businesses and homes were all closed and put in dungeons (kaal-kothri). They continually put leaders and citizens who tried to raise their voices for democracy in prison. He strangled and tortured them harshly. The atrocities and fear had no limit. The honor and respect of the mother and sister began to be destroyed.
"Couples who were newly married and did not have a single girl in their family were sterilized and their lives were ruined. There was such an atmosphere of fear that if a policeman went to the whole town, the whole town would be deserted. There was a lot of fear that The police would not know when they would kill someone, when they would extort someone, or when they would sterilize someone." He stated: "Even if all these atrocities are combined into one line, this Congress attack was more tainted than the rule of the British."
Highlighting the constitutional amendments and atrocities committed against those who opposed Indira Gandhi, Bindal said, "Several sections of the Constitution were amended. Just remembering the emergency of June 25, 1975 gives me goosebumps. Basically, in the name of the 'Maintenance of Internal Security Act (MISA), thousands of leaders and thousands of people who were personally against Congress were imprisoned for 19 months each for participating in this great sacrifice of saving democracy, I also had to go through four months in Karnal Jail in. Haryana, in a false case, Section 33 of the Defense of India Rule (DIR) was imposed on me to keep me in prison for four months The punishment imposed by Mrs. Indira Gandhi. At that time it is difficult to cover up thousands of people today, like me, were held in different prisons in India."
"Anyone who raised the slogan 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' was beaten to death with clubs and gun butts. In protest against the abolition of press freedom, we also installed a cyclo-steel machine, started printing newspapers secretly and delivered them to their fates overnight," he added. Bindal, on the defeat of the Congress in the post-Emergency elections, said: "Ultimately, when the elections were announced, the people defeated the dictatorial Congress, which led to the complete establishment of democracy.
He concluded and said: "Congress leaders who talk about democracy should first read the history of June 25. Due to the misdeeds of the Congress, the 800-year-old struggle for independence was in vain. If the country had not remained united and "If he had faced the opposition, he would have been a slave again on June 25, 2024, has a very clear message to Congress and its workers: they should stop instigating people in the name of the Constitution."

The protest included the president of the Congress Parliamentary Party Sonia Gandhi, party leader Rahul Gandhi and party chief Mallikarjun Kharge.
Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi said: "The ruling party has not forgotten its haughtiness...we can see that they are ignoring the key issues of the country...the entire Dalit community in India could witness a historic scene if K Suresh was appointed as interim president... today, the BJP has not only neglected the Congress, the INDIA alliance and K Suresh, but the entire Dalit community..."
