Did we make any amendments in our constitution to avoid another National Emergency?
The answer is a Big No!
If Prime Minister Indira Gandhi could do it, then what prevents Prime Minister Narendra Modi from imposing a National Emergency in 2015?
Narendra Modi is in a very advantage position. There is no person like Sanjay Gandhi in Modi's family.
Then, Jayaprakash Narayanan is also dead; and now, nobody has that kind of leadership quality.
Subramaniam Swamy may follow the same route this time also; Swamy goes to Ceylon; from there to United States; seeking political asylum; then actively tweet in favor of restoring democracy in India.

“Emergency made a huge dent; it was a setback for India’s democratic tradition. But at times, goodness comes out of the bad,” Modi said.
“The J.P. movement, the anti-corruption movement, the fight against Emergency after 25 years of Independence was an occasion… Today, the people in political life in India, most of them, are those who were born out of the Emergency,” he said.
Modi said that J.P. had the capacity to get some positivity out of the Emergency.
“Emergency should be remembered not to brood over what happened then, but to strengthen our resolve to fortify and further strengthen the democratic values and framework in our country,” he said.
The prime minister said Indian democracy became stronger after the Emergency.
“I don’t want to cry about Emergency. We must remember Emergency and recognize the power of democracy… make future generations aware of it. It is the demand of the times,” he said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation for the next National Emergency.
Modi doesn't have any special love for JP or Advani or Swamy. Modi didn't even sit there for the entire event. No cabinet ministers participated.
Modi had asked Venkaiyaji to plant the seed. Venkaji thanked Indira Gandhi for bringing him into public life; otherwise, he would have been a lawyer.
Then, Modi went on talking about all those good things, great actions, excitement of emergency.
This is the first time, someone gave a positive-spin on emergency. Modi would have thanked Indira Gandhi for having the courage to conduct this experiment at the national level.
We did learn our lesson from National Emergency. This time, we will avoid those mistakes. This time, we would effectively implement the National Emergency.

In fact, in 1975, people of India did welcome Indira Gandhi's action. That was the first time, anyone could do any business transaction without corruption. Offices were opened in time; government was effectively functioning.
People didn't care about all these political leaders going to Jail.
Things started going against to Indira, because of Sanjay Gandhi and compulsory Family Planning action.

Clean India; television promotion; nothing helps.
When you charge a fine of Rupees 500 for dropping any garbage on the street, then India would be the cleanest. That is the only thing works.
Freedom demands a lot of responsibility from citizens. When citizen doesn't feel responsible, then they don't deserve freedom.
Prime Minister said: make future generations aware of National Emergency. How could you make the future generations to learn about National Emergency?
Any amount of descriptions of Biriyani would not help. Let them taste the Biriyani; then they would understand it and appreciate it.

Only the Founding Fathers of United States of America could build a wonderful constitution. In US Constitution, three branches are part of the whole government.
All three parts are very well balanced. No one part could become a whole!
But, in India, the Prime Minister Indira Gandhi could shutdown the Legislative and Judicial.
All these leaders, born out of Emergency didn't pay any attention to fix the defect. They were busy in becoming a cabinet minister and comfortably forgot the root cause.
When you didn't fix the cause, it may grow and become a monster.

The Prime Minister Narendra Modi has very well done his homework.
In Delhi, Najeeb Jung will take the full control.
VK Singh. Not a politician; an effective executive; had an attempt to coup.
VK Singh would manage the military.
Other IAS executives are there to run the government.

United States would be busy with their Presidential election. They will ignore India.
Then, who else would make any strong comment against Indian government.
Only Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi follows: the means must justify the ends.
For highly ambitious Narendra Modi, the ends justify any means.
Let us continue with the experiment of democracy.
