Everybody, especially youths, went through a lot of trauma was Emergency was imposed in 1975, External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar said on Friday (June 27, 2025). It’s not normal when students are sleeping in the hostel, and suddenly some of them are taken away for no reason. Imagine the trauma everyone had to go through, he said, speaking at the inaugural session of the Mock Parliament organized by Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM).

I was a student when the Emergency was imposed in 1975, and I will never forget what happened and what everyone had to go through.
