Congress leader Sonia Gandhi described the 1975 Emergency as constitutional but acknowledged democratic rights were curtailed and habeas corpus was suspended. She said then-Prime Minister Indira Gandhi acted to manage worsening conditions and later publicly apologized for excesses during the Emergency. Sonia also accused the Modi government of damaging India's social fabric, democracy, and institutions over the past 12 years.
