In the last episode of Mann Ki Baat, PM Modi talked about the Emergency and called it a dark era in Indian history when atrocities were committed on the supporters of democracy.
“India is the mother of democracy. We cannot forget June 25. The day when emergency was imposed. It was a dark period in the history of India. Millions of people opposed the emergency with all their might. The supporters of democracy were tortured so much during that time that even today, their mind shudders. Today, when we celebrate Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav we must also observe such crimes. This will teach the young generations the meaning and importance of democracy,” Modi said.
Mann Ki Baat programme will be heard on All India Radio and will also be telecast on Doordarshan.
The monthly show will also be available on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Facebook page. Apart from this, updates will also be available on the Twitter handle of All India Radio and PM
