'India is passing through an era of darkness where Constitution is a facade, says Pratap Bhanu Mehta

India’s leading public intellectual Pratap Bhanu Mehta says ‘we must acknowledge the truth in the current dispensation’s critique of the old regime. It is true that the old Congress system had often used secularism as a tool of electoral opportunism. The 1980s were an astonishing example of that cynical use of secularism. In this process, Congress forgot to protect individual rights.” He was speaking at a conference on ‘The Crisis of Democracy in India’, organised by the Manthan Foundation.
