Abstract	In 1975, India's Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi, declared a state of emergency, temporarily suspending the civil liberties of this country's citizens. This classroom simulation, designed for use in secondary school world history classes, examines the various issues surrounding this declaration of emergency and includes: (1) an introduction to the Indian Constitution; (2) an explanation of events leading to this state of emergency; (3) a fictitious simulated event that permits students to argue for or against the declaration of emergency; and (4) a list of resource materials. An included lesson plan presents the simulation and suggests class activities and discussion questions. Specific resource materials that can be used for background information on each character in the simulation are listed, and an 11-item bibliography is included. (JHP)
