As the BJP rants about former PM Indira Gandhi and Emergency, TMC MP Sagarika Ghose makes this point: "Indira Gandhi imposed #Emergency1975 because @RSSorg was pushing India towards total anarchy. YES, the Emergency was a BLOT, BUT the same #IndiraGandhi called elections, resigned and took questions in public. Why doesn't @narendramodi hold a press conference like this first instead of busily trying to copy from the #Emergency. #Emergency50Years"
