New Delhi, June 26 (ANI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on June 26 said that the people of India got rid of the Emergency and restored Democracy. Addressing the 90th episode of ‘Mann Ki Baat’, PM Modi said, “I remember, when famous singer Kishore Kumar refused to praise the government, he was banned. He was not allowed on the radio. Despite several attempts, thousands of arrests and atrocities on millions, the faith of Indians in Democracy could not be shaken.” “The democratic values ingrained in us for centuries, the spirit of democracy that flows in our veins ultimately triumphed through the democratic process only. The people of India got rid of the Emergency and restored Democracy,” he added.
