Short Edit: Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas? Someone Could Have Given A Little More Thought To The Words

OPINION: The Centre has decided to observe June 25 as 'Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas'. At first glance, one would be taken aback at the coinage of the phrase 'Samvidhaan Hatya Diwas', wondering if it means 'Kill Constitution Day' or 'Constitution Murder Day'. Both would anyway indicate that it's a day to murder (figuratively, of course) the ideals of the Constitution, if translated literally.  Obviously, it is a day to remember the day when "people of India were subjected to excesses and atrocities", as mentioned in the gazette notification. The room it leaves for confusion is big, in a country like ours that does not speak only one language. While Emergency will without a doubt remain a black chapter in the history of independent India, whether a specific day ...
