AGARTALA, June 25 (TIWN): BJP leaders slammed the Congress on the 45th anniversary of Emergency on Thursday, alleging it still suffered from the “Emergency mindset” and the interests of “one family” prevailed over those of the party and the country.

BJP Yuva Morcha President Tinku Roy said, when Congress today is talking about democracy, we like to remind them about their brutal era.

At Centre, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has often criticised Congress for imposing Emergency in 1975, made no mention of the party in his tweet but lauded the people who fought against it, Home Minister Amit Shah and other BJP leaders launched a broadside against the Congress.

However, political analysts say, after British, Indira Gandhi’s Emergency era, people will remember Modi regime as the most undemocratic period.
