Former Law Minister and lawyer Shanti Bhushan breathed his last at his Delhi residence on Tuesday (January 31) .Bhushan was not keeping well for sometime ...

The emergency: It was a plan by Indira Gandhi to hold on to power. Bhushan was at a hotel in Bombay (now Mumbai) then and he was informed about the judgment by his brother Vijay Kumar from Delhi. Where was Bhushan at the time of judgment? The court-room roared with chants of 'Raj Narain ki Jai', 'Shanti Bhushan ki Jai'. The arguments concluded on May 23, 1975, which was also last working day for the High Court before the summer vacations. However, the petition appeared to be more of a vehicle for a propaganda than an election petition to Bhushan. To make it more convincing, Bhushan added three more charges to the petition and it now had eight charges. Till then, she had been saying that she took the decision of contesting from Rae Bareli on February 1, 1975. The plan worked for Shanti Bhushan. Bhushan caught her off-guard by throwing a question regarding the decision of the All India Congress Committee (AICC) about her constituency. This, after he lost the election in Rae Bareli to Indira Gandhi. A skilled lawyer, Bhushan served as the Union Law Minister from 1977 to 1979 in the Morarji Desai-led government.
