Speaker moves resolution condemning Emergency, Congress finds itself isolated

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 26 June 2024

The resolution, endorsing the retrospective approval by the Indira Gandhi Cabinet of the presidential decree that suspended democratic norms and civil liberties, received backing from Congress allies such as SP, DMK, and TMC, alongside the BJP and its coalition partners.
