Emergency’s Latest Defender

Lalu Yadav is sending out strong signals of what we can expect if he becomes Prime Minister.

In an audacious statement, Lalu Prasad Yadav on Wednesday justified the indefensible when he said the imposition of Emergency in 1975 was “necessary for curbing indiscipline in the country”. [.] The railway minister went on to add that “if the need arose, emergency could be imposed again”.
