NEW DELHI: RSS national general secretary Dattatreya Hosabale on Thursday demanded that the current generation of Congress , which claims to vouch for the Constitution, must apologise for imposition of Emergency by Indira Gandhi govt 50 years ago. Hosabale made a strong pitch for considering whether two words - socialist and secular - which were added to the Preamble of the Constitution by the Congress govt during Emergency by the 42nd amendment, should remain.
Recalling the days of Emergency, Hosabale said while thousands of people were put in jail and tortured during that period, freedom of the judiciary and media was also curtailed. He said the words - socialist and secular - were inserted later and there has been no discussion on whether they should be retained. "The original Constitution had no mention of them. They should reviewe it," he added. tnn
