Raj to give pension to Rajasthanis jailed during Emergency
The Vasundhara Raje-led Rajasthan government has decided to provide pension to those Rajasthanis who were jailed anywhere in the country during the Emergency imposed by the Indira Gandhi regime. The state has also decided to term these people as 'democracy freedom fighters'. "By imposing emergency, people were devoid of what was rightfully theirs," state Minister Rajendra Rathore said.
