緊急狀態 (印度)
印度緊急狀態(the Emergency)是指印度在1975年至1977年間,持續21個月的緊急狀態。時任印度總理英迪拉·甘地決定在全國範圍內實施緊急狀態,由總統法赫魯丁·阿里·艾哈邁德因「內亂」(internal disturbance)而根據《印度憲法》第352條正式發佈,後被內閣及議會追認[1][2]。緊急狀態從1975年6月25日開始生效,直到1977年3月21日撤銷。
緊急狀態時期,印度總理被賦予極大權力,得暫停選舉及限制公民自由。緊急狀態期間,英迪拉·甘地的大多數政治反對者被長期監禁,新聞界受到審查。緊急狀態期間還發生了其他侵犯人權的事件,包括由總理的兒子桑賈伊·甘地帶頭髮起的大規模強迫絕育運動[3][4][5][6]。緊急狀態是印度獨立後歷史上最具爭議的時期之一。

Sanjay Gandhi, started to run the country as though it were his fiefdom and earned the fierce hatred of many whom his policies had victimised. He ordered the removal of slum dwellings, and in an attempt to curb India's growing population, initiated a highly resented programme of forced sterilisation.

The Congress, on the other hand, charges Sanjay Gandhi of "over-enthusiasm" in dealing with certain programmes and I quote yet again: "Unfortunately, in certain spheres, over-enthusiasm led to compulsion in the enforcement of certain programmes like compulsory sterilisation and clearance of slums. Sanjay Gandhi had by then emerged as a leader of great significance.".
