JAMMU: Senior BJP leader and Convenor, Namami Gange, Adv. Chander Mohan Sharma, along with BJP Library Incharge Prof. Kulbhushan Mahotra, addressed a press conference at the BJP Headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu. J&K BJP Vice-President Adv. Rekha Mahajan, and senior leader S. Varinderjit Singh were also present in the press conference.
Paying rich floral tributes to Dr. Shyama Prasad Mookerjee on his martyrdom day, Adv. Sharma described him as the ideological fountainhead of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh and a visionary nationalist who made the supreme sacrifice for the complete integration of Jammu & Kashmir with the rest of India.
Referring to June 25, Adv. Sharma said that the day marks one of the darkest chapters in India's democratic history, when the Emergency was imposed by the then Prime Minister, Late Indira Gandhi, in 1975. He stated that the observance of “Samvidhan Hatya Diwas” (Constitution Murder Day) is intended to remind the nation of the systematic suppression of democratic institutions, civil liberties, and fundamental rights during the Emergency period.
Sharma said that through this programme, the BJP aims to present the historical truth and effectively counter the false and politically motivated narratives being propagated against the Central Government and constitutional institutions, including the Judiciary, Election Commission, and other statutory bodies.
Adv. Sharma informed that the Bharatiya Janata Party has decided to observe Samvidhan Hatya Diwas across the country. In Jammu & Kashmir, the programme will be organized at two locations, at BJP Headquarters, Jammu, and Srinagar.
As part of the observance, exhibitions showcasing photographs and documented accounts depicting the atrocities, repression, and hardships faced by ordinary citizens during the Emergency will be displayed. He appealed to all those who suffered during the Emergency period, particularly in Jammu & Kashmir, to participate in the programme and share their experiences and memories so that future generations remain aware of the consequences of authoritarian rule.
Prof. Kulbhushan Mahotra also emphasized the importance of preserving historical facts and educating the younger generation about the challenges faced by democracy during the Emergency era.
