The BJP on Monday slammed the Congress over its “undeclared emergency” charge at Modi government, saying it is “deeply ironic” that the Gandhi family-dominated party that imposed Emergency in 1975 for “personal and political gain” is now speaking about democracy and freedom of speech.
This came after the Congress took a swipe at the Modi government on completing 11 years in office, saying the “undeclared Emergency” had turned 11 and the promise of “achche din” (good days) have proven to be a “nightmare” in reality.
